Abstract
Many researchers over the years studied how logic gates work on the basis of electrical signals. Here, we proposed to create a brand-new, COMPARATOR-focused idea for optical logic design. Being able to keep their shape as well as potential intact even after propagating through a long distance, optical soliton is a well-established phenomenon in digital communication system. Though we have a previous concept of electrical logic gates, at this stage we can design a new technique of logic gates where the light signal can be used instead of electrical signal. An optical signal having a very high data communication speed, there is not an unwanted gate delay time. Here we use hyper secant optical soliton pulse (HOSP)-based logic GATES from numerical aspects. This paper proposes a new method to perform all-optical COMPARATOR using HOSP. An optical comparator using soliton pulse superposition is very fast and systematic process to compare the data with a proper simulation using MATLAB simulation.
