Abstract: A photonic network packet routing method includes the steps of optically encoding destination address information attached to an IP packet using light attributes, discriminating the encoded address information of the IP packet by optical correlation processing, switching to an output path for the IP packet based on a result of the discrimination, and outputting the IP packet labeled with prescribed address information on the output path selected by the switching step.

Abstract: An optical signal noise reduction device and method, where optical control signals are input into a first ring optical fiber, so that optical signals propagates clockwise and counter-clockwise in the optical fiber, with optical control signals propagating either clockwise or counter-clockwise in the first ring optical fiber. Optica signals propagating in the same direction as the optical control signals are affected with cross phase modulation with the optical control signals, while optical signals propagating in the opposite direction as the optical control signals are not affected with cross phase modulation with the optical control signals. The two kinds of the optical signals are then interfered with each other at the optical output to reduce noise of the optical.

Abstract: An object is to reduce the noise of optical signals in optical processing. The optical signals and optical control signals are input into a first ring optical fiber, so that the optical signals propagates clockwise and counter-clockwise in the optical fiber, and the optical control signals propagates either clockwise or counter-clockwise in the first ring optical fiber. The optical signals propagating in the same direction with the optical control signals are affected with cross phase modulation with the optical control signals. The optical signals propagating in the different direction with the optical control signals are not affected with cross phase modulation with the optical control signals. The two kinds of the optical signals are interfered each other at the optical output means to reduce the noise of the optical signals.
