Bit-rate flexibility and ultrafast locking are important in future asynchronous Internet protocol (IP) networks. The performance of regenerators is demonstrated in loop experiments.enaccess protocolsinternetmach-zehnder interferometersoptical fibre networksoptical pulse shapingoptical repeaterssemiconductor optical amplifierssynchronisationall-optical clock recovery3r optical regenerationscalable all-optical networksbit-rate flexibilityultrafast lockingasynchronous ip networksloop experimentsinternet protocol networks621conference paper
