Simulation and experimental validation of fiber Fabry-Perot filters for optical clock recovery

In this paper, we propose and simulate all optical clock recovery at bit rates up to 100 Gbit/s using FabryPerot filters based on fiber Bragg gratings. Simulations performed for Return to Zero (RZ) data format at 10, 40 and 100 Gbit/s show that the technique is quite simple and promising. Based on such results, we have fabricated Fabry-Perot filters for optical clock recovery and report the relevant results.
