Popis: This paper reports a technical assessment of an all-optical 4/spl times/10 Gbps clock extraction technique in the context of fiber optic digital communication systems. The technique consists in putting a 1320 nm semiconductor laser in a self pulsating mode through injection locking to a CW source. The pulsations are triggered by a fast drive current step. The useful self pulsation region has been explored after extensive simulation providing a valuable knowledge for on-going experiments. Actual synchronization with the optical data stream was observed both considering all ones and pseudo-random sequences. Phase sustaining of the clock over moderate-length sequences of zeros was noticed as the most encouraging result of this work.
