Abstract:
The invention concerns an all-optical converter ( 10 ) for converting an intensity-modulated optical signal into an optical signal modulated to the DPSK format, characterised in that it comprises: a first input ( 152a ) for a first intensity-modulated optical signal ( 12 ); a differential encoding module ( 100 ) adapted to perform a differential encoding between the first signal ( 12 ) and a second optical signal synchronous with the first signal ( 12 ); a device adapted to modulate ( 200 ) adapted to modulate the phase of an optical signal ( 16 ) according to the differential encoding performed by the differential encoding module ( 100 ); an output ( 162c ) of the device adapted to modulate ( 200 ) delivering an optical signal modulated to the DPSK format ( 14 ).
Abstract:
The invention relates in particular to an optical regeneration device for a signal carrying an item of information encoded by phase modulation of that signal, that signal being transmitted over an optical network and comprising a temporal succession of optical pulses. The device comprises an optical pulse nonlinear phase shift module, a linear pulse broadening module a linear pulse broadening module, and a module for the linear compensation of the broadening undergone by the pulses in the linear broadening module.
