Abstract
We have theoretically investigated polarization insensitive all-optical wavelength conversion for polarization multiplexing signal based on dual-pump four-wave mixing (FWM) in a SOA. The simulation result shows that the polarization insensitive converted signal can be separated into two lightwaves without crosstalk when one of the two orthogonal data lightwaves is parallel with one pump and the SOA should be polarization insensitive. Several conditions which affect the conversion efficiency for polarization multiplexing signal are also discussed.
