摘要All-optical format conversion between non-return-to-zero (NRZ) and the Manchester code is implemented by using an optical exclusive-OR (XOR) logic gate based on a semiconductor optical amplifier Mach–Zehnder Interferometer (SOA-MZI). There is 10 Gbit/s all-optical NRZ-to-Manchester conversion implemented in our simulation system and BER performance of the format conversion is investigated. Transmission performances of the converted Manchester coded signal are discussed in terms of transmission length and received optical power.
