Architecture and Device Development for Optical Networks
Abstract
This report describes the work accomplished at the Photonics Center, Rome Laboratory in developing an Optical Time Division Multiaccess coder capable of rapidly shifting an optical pulse in time for address recognition. It also describes current and future work being accomplished at the Photonics Center on coincidence detection ('AND' gate) for use in demultiplexing channel information from a multi-gigabit data stream. Part of this effort, dealing with the free- space switching architecture, was primarily accomplished at Princeton University.
