Abstract

We develop a mathematical model of chirp in a Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA)-based wavelength converters using cross-gain modulation (XGM).Using the model, we study numerically the effects that the chirp of Gaussian pluses and ultra-Gaussian pluses make into the optical signal pluses in Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA), and theoretically analysis the parameters that affect chirp variations.
