Abstract(in English) In this paper, we aim to investigate the way for wavelength scalability guarantee while applying SOA switch to MW-OPS, considering the influence caused by the non-linear phenomenon of SOA swith. Optical packet switching (OPS) with low power consumption is required for realizing ultra-high bandwidth Internet. Especially, MW-OPS has been researched recently as a promising technology to provide high capacity with less number of optical devices due to its property that wavelength-multiplexed optical packets are switched with wide-band optical switches, and SOA switches are viable for MW-OPS in terms of ultra-fast switching speed and high extinction ratio. Although SOA switches have high affinity to scalable broad-cast-and-selection architecture, optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR) becomes wore due to the non-linear phenomenon for high power input signals. In this paper, in order to investigate the relationship between OSNR and the parameters such as the number of wavelengths utilized, wavelengths intervals, and the optical gain provided by SOA switch, we experimental evaluate the dynamic range of input power into SOA switch for MW-OPS. The results show that sufficient number of wavelengths could be utilized with lower gain.
