Abstract
A novel dual-control configuration of nonlinear loop mirrors is used f or all-optical soliton synchronous regeneration. simulations show subs tantial improvement in transmission in this device compared with singl e-control devices, owing to chirp-free modulation. the absence of chir p is confirmed experimentally through a spectral analysis of dual-cont rol modulator.
