Abstract
An all-optical WDM to TDM converter, or transmultiplexer, is described . The transmultiplexer is based on optical frequency conversion by gai n compression in semiconductor optical amplifiers. Operation of the tr ansmultiplexer is demonstrated experimentally, and bit error rate meas urements are reported.
