ABSTRACT:
A device for processing of an optical input signal includes at least a first data signal. A first optical resonator provides a reference signal by optical filtering of the optical input signal. The first optical resonator is matched with a predetermined reference wavelength of the first data signal. A second optical resonator provides a sideband signal by optical filtering of the optical input signal. The second optical resonator is non-matched with the predetermined reference wavelength of the first data signal. An optical combiner combines the sideband signal with the reference signal to form an optical output signal.
