Abstract
An optical signal processor comprises a first input terminal for a pulse signal light with a signal wavelength, a second input terminal for a probe light with, probe wavelength different from the signal wavelength, a first splitter to split the probe light into two portions, an XPM optical device to modulate the one portion of the split output lights from the splitter, a second splitter to split light with the probe wavelength phase-modulated by the XPM optical device into two portions, a first combiner to combine the other portion of the split output lights from the first splitter with the one portion of the split output lights from the second splitter, and a second combiner to combine the other portion of the split output lights from the second splitter with the output light from the first combiner.
