Abstract

We present recent advances in phase-sensitive amplification technology and its application to the regeneration of phase-encoded signals. Using a combination of parametric effects in fibers and optical injection locking of lasers, it is possible to observe phase regeneration in signals with multiple levels of phase encoding.

Phase-sensitive amplifiers constitute powerful tools for the regeneration of phase-encoded optical signals. However, they are often accompanied by a detrimental phase-to-amplitude noise conversion. We present techniques to overcome this effect and discuss their potential.
