Abstract

The inband crosstalk of photonic packet switches at synchronization module was analyzed. The second order inband crosstalk caused was dominant and increased with number of delay lines which caused impact on bit error rate (BER) performance. When the packet passed through 2×2 optical switch, the main signal appeared at designated output of switch but small portion of signal leaked to other output of switch due to imperfection of switching process. The BER performance was significantly affected with increase in number of delay lines. The crosstalk level was less than 25 dB to ensure power penalty below 1 dB for reasonable time resolution.
