The objective of this research is divided into two major parts: first, the investigation of SPM and XPM in SOA based NOLM and second, its application in wavelength conversion. In this setup, the control pump wavelength is 1540 nm and the signal wavelength is 1555 nm. The simulation setup is based on Sagnac interferometer.

At low input power, it is noticed that the signal encountered very small phase change, irrespective of the gain setting of the SOA. However, as the power increased the phase curve began to diverge.
