In this paper, we analyze a Microwave Amplifier Ultra-Wideband charateristic to apply Multi-Giga b/s optical receiver preamplifier in high speed optical communication system. To obtain frequency expanding effect. we analyze the frequency gain degradation effects of capacitances in the GaAs MESFET small-signal equivalent circuit and design Feedback amplifier Module(FAM) which has inductor peaking elements to compensate its effects and to expand frequency band. We derive optimum inductor peaking values in order to get flat gain in frequency band. The input and the output impedances of FAM are matched by Real Frequency Method and we design one and two stage ultra wideband microwave amplifier. With simulation results, it show $6.36\sim6.86dB$ and $9.1\sim10.3dB$ gains and execllent gain flatness in $0.5\sim12GHz$ respectively.

We fabricated a single mode fiber pigtailed PIN-preamplifier front-end receiver module for the high speed optical receiver. Hybrid method was used to integrate GaInAs PIN photodiode and transimpedance type GaAs preamplifier. The capacitance and the diameter of light receiving area of PIN photodiode were 0.35 pF and $20{\mu}m$ respectively. The -3 dB cut-off frequency of PIN-preamplifier module was above 2 GHz, and the sensitivity of the module at 2.5 Gbps NRZ $(PRBS=2^{23}-1)$ signal was -25.2 dBm at $10^{-9}$ BER. > BER.

An all-optical encryption system built on the basis of electrical logic circuit design principles is proposed, using semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) exclusive or (XOR) logic gates. Numerical techniques (steady-state and dynamic) were employed in a sequential manner to optimize the system parameters, speeding up the overall design process. The results from both numerical and experimental testbeds show that the encoding/decoding of the optical signal can be achieved at a 10 Gbps data rate with a conventional SOA cascade without serious degradation in the data quality.

In this paper, a new wavelength converter using an SOA(Semiconductor Optical Amplifier)-loop-mirror for NRZ(NonReturn to Zero) optical data has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Conventional nonlinear fiber-loop-mirror methods can perform RZ-to-RZ, NRZ-to-RZ, and RZ-to-NRZ data format conversion, but NRZ-to-NRZ conversion has not been demonstrated until now. The experiment for the conversion from a 1300 nm NRZ data signal at 1.5 Gbps to a 1550 nm NRZ data one is successfully performed using a fiber-loop-mirror with 1300 nm-SOA.

In this paper, bit error rate (BER) characteristics, sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are numerically investigated as a function of amplifier spacing that consisted of 1,200 km WDM systems with MSSI method. It is conformed that the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are gradually degraded as amplifier spacings are gradually expanded, but those are not largely affected by modulation format. The sensitivity of RZ transmission system is smaller than that of NRZ transmission system, but minimum allowable launching power of NRZ transmission system is smaller than that of RZ transmission system. And, it is confirmed that the best amplifier spacing in NRZ and RZ transmission system is less than 50 km, because the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are less affected by fiber dispersion, channel wavelength and pump light power.

The transient response in PDFA(Praseodymium-Doped Fiber Amplifier) is theoretically investigated. The PDFA has the spectral gain band in 1.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The transient model includes the transient buildup of the population inversion, the pump power, and the signal power and their transient variation along the fiber amplifier. The numerical analysis of transient model can predict the gain saturation, the variation of pump power and the gain as a function of the fiber length. It also shows the gain saturation and recovery effects depending on the pumping rate lead to distortion and saturation in the amplification of optical pulse. The results of numerical analysis, for the case of the Pr ion concentration of 1000ppm and the pump power of 0.5W the gain saturation is obtained 30dB at the length of 5m and the saturation time of upper level is 250 $mutextrm{s}$.

In this paper, we used differential amplifiers to reduce crosstalk in a wireless in-house optical interconnection in which two channel beams are overlapped. Experimental results show that environmental optical noise is also reduced using the same principle. This method is realized very easily with differential amplifiers without any optical filters or electrical filters. It is very useful in short distance optical interconnections.

All-optical data extraction, one of the key technologies for all-optical computing and optical communication to perform add-drop, packet switching, and data reset, etc., is experimentally demonstrated by using cross-gain modulation (XGM) of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). Also, all-optical data extraction based on numerical simulation is performed by using the VPI simulation tool. In this paper, the suggested optical system based on SOAs shows the potential for high speed, and highly integrable and low power optical data computing.

We present a weather-insensitive optical free-space communication method supporting optical packet channels. It operates optical fiber amplifiers in gain-saturation regions. When the propagation loss gets too high, it decreases the average packet rate, or the average packet length, or both, to increase the optical power level launched into the free-space. As a demonstration, we transmit $8{\times}10$ Gigabit Ethernet channels over a terrestrial distance of 2.4 km. One gain-saturated free-space optical repeater is used at the halfway point.
