Abstract

The online dispersion monitoring technique based on XGM between the two sidebands of the optical signal in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is proposed in this paper. The simulation shows that through the cross gain modulation between the two sidebands of the signal and introducing dither to the time delay between them and extracting the 2nd order frequency component of the dither in the SOA output, the dispersion variation can be obtained and the dispersion monitoring range can be improved.
