The scheme parameters are discussed and analyzed to optimize the performance of optical header extraction with the proposed scheme. Numerical analysis and simulation show that a more than 17dB contrast ratio can be achieved for the optical header separation when the input optical signal energy is as low as 0.2pJ. In addition, the system structure is simple, stable, and photonic integratable.
