Abstract
Abstract This work has reported the optical switches based semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) for the performance of the characteristics enhancement by using various electrical pulse generators. Max. Q, bit error rate (BER) after light detector, max. signal power (MSP), min. noise power (MNNP), and total optical power after power combiner based SOAs with various pulse generators are simulated and clarified. Return to zero (RZ) pulse code has clarified max Q than other pulse generators. The max output signal power is improved with Gaussian pulse in compared to other pulse generators. Triangle/RZ pulse generators have presented better total optical power than other proposed generators.
