Abstract
In this paper, transmission properties of the regenerator employing a semiconductor laser amplifier loop mirror (SLALOM) are discussed. The ability of the regenerator to suppress the additive noise in the input data train is calculated. It’s shown that the regenerator can greatly suppress noise in communication system and improve their communication capacity by choosing suitable semiconductor laser amplifier(SLA) and the power of injected continuous wave.
