All-optical parallel data and address recovery scheme

In this paper, we have presented a parallel system model to recover data and address based on terahertz optical asymmetric demultiplexer (TOAD)/semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA)-assisted Sagnac gate. The architecture is based on a system which has its input information containing data and address. Here, we first convert the original data into a coded form with the help of input address. Then the coded information is transmitted through the optical routing channel. At the receiver end, the model simultaneously extracts data and address at any point of the routing channel. The operations of the circuits are studied theoretically and analyzed through numerical simulations. The variation of contrast ratio, amplitude modulation, extinction ratio and bit error rate with control pulse energy and switching crosstalk with gain ratio has been thoroughly investigated.
