Abstract
Optical subcarrier-multiplexed (OSCM) labels in optical label switching networks have been detected using interleavers composed of fiber-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometer. 10-GHz optical single-/double-sideband signals generated from dual-electrode Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator have been used as the OSCM labels. In the case of single-sideband signals, the upper-sideband was observed to be suppressed about 16.8 dB compared with the lower-sideband from the optical spectrum measured at the label extraction output. For the case of double-sideband signals, both sidebands appeared with small insertion loss at the interleaver output. Since we used the phase-shift method to generate single-sideband signals, the power level of the single-sideband was higher by 3 dB than that of the double-sidebands.
