Abstract
The method of enhancing the information capacity and reliable storage of information in circulator fiber-optic memory is presented. The method is based on creation of an additional built-in channel with contrary-directed circulation of signals. This channel can be used for transmission of both information and auxiliary signals: address words, clock signals, correcting sequences, etc. The possibility of compensating the information signal losses by means of stimulated Raman scattering is considered.
