Abstract
The operation of an all-optical error detection circuit consisting of an all-optical exclusive OR (XOR) gate for an encoder and two-stage all-optical XOR gates for a decoder using SOA-MZIs has been investigated. 10 and 40 Gbit/s operation of all-optical XOR gates were obtained. Error signals in the syndrome at 10 Gbit/s based on the all-optical XOR gates were achieved for the first time.Keywords
