- Additional information
- This paper provided the first experimental proof that Nonlinear Optical Loop Mirrors -NOLMs (i.e. the most well known non-linear intereferometric device in optical communications), can regenerate complex constellation signals enabling high capacity digital transmission channels. The paper has led to a major industrial contract of £1.3M (Huawei, Executive Vice President) and subsequently to the establishment of an industrially funded research lab at Aston university. Several invited contributions in peer reviewed international conferences have followed up this publication helping the first author (Feng Wen) acquire a professorial position in his country (China) and establish his own research group in the field.
