Abstract
The properties of an all-optical 2R regenerator based on cascaded four-wave mixing (FWM) in a highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) are investigated. The regeneration is based on the nonlinear cascaded FWM transfer function and a study of the system's static behavior reveals the operating conditions, under which the transfer function approaches most the ideal, step-like discrimination characteristic function. Numerical simulations for the regenerated temporal satellite wave with different signal and pump powers are investigated, and the optimal transfer function based on different fiber lengths and different injected wavelengths are also demonstrated.
