Abstract

In recent years, optical fiber communication system has made a great development, but the quality of the optical signal will be seriously deteriorated by some factors, such as amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise, group velocity dispersion and so on. The traditional regeneration technology is accomplished within the electrical domain, and the opticalelectrical-optical conversion consumes vast amounts of energy. So it is necessary for all optical regeneration technology. This paper introduces the principle of an all-optical 2R regenerator based on self-phase modulation(SPM) and offset filtering technology. The deteriorated optical signal at 40 Gbit/s has been regenerated by the combination of SPM in highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) and offset filtering. The factors influencing the regeneration have been analyzed by changing related parameters. It is concluded that by reasonably choosing parameters, we can get the best result of all-optical 2R regeneration.
