A novel phase-locking-free phase sensitive amplifier based Regenerator

We propose and demonstrate a novel PSK regenerator based on phase sensitive amplification without active phase-locking. The scheme is applied to regenerate a phase noise degraded 10-Gbit/s DPSK signal, improving receiver sensitivity by 3.5 dB.
