초록

전광 EO-MZ 광변조기의 바이어스를 안정화함으로써 버스트 모드 패킷 트래픽 조건에서도 스위칭 소광비를 최대화하는 방법을 제안하고 입증하였다. 광변조기의 오프 레벨 출력 전력을 샘플링하고 최소화함으로써 패킷 트래픽 밀도의 변화에 무관하게 높은 소광비를 갖는 광 게이트로서 동작한다.

A novel method for stabilizing the bias of an Electro-Optic Mach-Zehnder modulator has been proposed and demonstrated to maximize the switching extinction ratio in burst mode packet traffic. By sampling and minimizing the off-level output power of the modulator, a high extinction optical gate switch in obtain regardless of the variation of the packet traffic density.
