| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to establish modulation format conversion methods to realize modulation adaptation, which optimizes the utilizing formats depending on the desired transmission capacity and reach, for future high capacity and highly efficient optical communication networks. One of the achievements of this study is that establishing a novel conversion technology between formats expected to be employed in the future 400-Gbps and 1-Tbs capacity transmission by constructing a simple architecture with passive optical devices. This study has made clear the detailed implementation of the conversion methods, conversion characteristics, and signal quality upon conversion by analytical investigation and numerical simulation.
