Abstract
We propose an all-optical frequency processor (AFP) for transparent optical networking, based on optical pulse shaping and electro-optic phase modulation. We numerically examine the AFP for frequency channel hopping and broadcasting operations, and show the required number of components scales favorably with the network size.
