An all-optical amplitude shift keying/differential phase shift-keying (ASK/DPSK) label
swapping scheme based on the pump-depleted parametric process in optical fibers is
numerically demonstrated. In contrast with the usual four-wave mixing (FWM) approaches,
the proposed technique takes advantage of the depleted pump wave, which after the parametric
process, carries both the payload and the new label. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is
verified in a transmission system where 40Gb/s ASK packets along with 2.5Gb/s DPSK labels
are efficiently transmitted over five 60Km-spaced hops.
