To review recent progress, core subsystems, and future prospects of ultrafast all-optical signal-processing technologies for multiterabit-per-second optical transmission systems.
Evaluated optical time-division multiplexing (OTDM) and hybrid optical time- and wavelength-division multiplexing (OTDM/WDM) system architectures.
Analyzed key functional components including ultrafast optical pulse generation, all-optical multiplexing/demultiplexing, and optical timing extraction.
Showed that integrating OTDM and WDM architectures enables optical transmission capacities to reach multiterabit-per-second bandwidths.
Established all-optical demultiplexing and stable optical timing extraction as critical requirements for overcoming electronic speed bottlenecks.
