Abstract

Introduced in this paper is an experimental system of packet-level self-synchronization using semiconductor optical amplifier based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (SOA-MZI). The function of SOA-MZI in the system is analyzed, as well as the relationship among key parameters of various components. A tunable optical delay line is used for the adjustment of phase difference. It reveals that SOA-MZI is an effective way to extract self-synchronization clock in both experiments and practical applications.
