Abstract: | We propose a modification of a NALM-based 2R regenerator of phase-encoded signals which operates at considerably lower input powers than was studied earlier. Our modification consists of replacing the core-matched and lossless fiber coupler in the NALM by a coupler with a propagation constant mismatch and loss asymmetrically distributed between the two cores. The performance of the modified regenerator and the one studied earlier is approximately the same. |
