Abstract

An all-optical encryption system built on the basis of electrical logic circuit design principles is proposed, using semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) exclusive or (XOR) logic gates. Numerical techniques (steady-state and dynamic) were employed in a sequential manner to optimize the system parameters, speeding up the overall design process. The results from both numerical and experimental testbeds show that the encoding/decoding of the optical signal can be achieved at a 10 Gbps data rate with a conventional SOA cascade without serious degradation in the data quality.

전자 논리회로에서 이용되는 전자신호 암호화와 같은 방법으로, 반도체 광 증폭기 XOR논리 게이트를 이용한 전광 암호화 시스템을 제안하였다. 시스템의 변수를 최적화 하고 전체 디자인 과정을 빠르게 수행하기 위해 정상상태와(steady state) 과도상태에(dynamic) 대한 전산모사가 차례로 이루어졌다. 심각한 신호 왜곡이 없이 10 Gbps 속도에서 일반적인 반도체 광 증폭기의 연속적 연결을 통해 전광 신호에 대한 암호화와 해독이 수행될 수 있음을 전산모사와 실험에 의한 결과를 통해 보여주었다.
