A heterogeneous optical space switch based on interferometric gating elements and SOAs is proposed. Simulations show power savings close to 20% and better physical layer performance with respect to the SOA-based space switch implementation.

Abstract
A heterogeneous optical space switch based on interferometric gating elements and SOAs is proposed. Simulations show power savings close to 20% and better physical layer performance with respect to the SOA-based space switch implementation.File in questo prodotto:
