All-Optical Simultaneous Frequency Metamorphose Contingent on a Three Parallel SOA-MZIs Copula
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Transmission, reception and processing of optical signals is one of the main problems of modern physics and technology. Because as the signal weakens, it becomes difficult to receive information from it. Amplifying the signal and getting information from weak signals is very important. Thus, this research work can be highly appreciated. In this treatise, developed a standard modulation design to consummate concomitant frequency up mixing dependent on the three parallel SOA-MZIs by employing a sampling arrangement in Virtual Photonics Inc. (VPI) software. Every sampling SOA-MZI is used to acquire a frequency output sampled signal at higher frequencies. Then, the amalgamation of these three mixed signals leads to a simultaneous up conversion procedure. The peak and positive conversion gains (CGs) are compassed with the SOA-MZIs connected in parallel for frequency mixing for higher frequencies of data signals from 0.5 to 98 GHz, 1 to 98.5 GHz, and 1.5 to 99 GHz, concurrently, which are in connection with the control signal at the frequency of the fifth harmonic. The studies were carried out by modern methods with high accuracy.
I think the manuscript can be accepted.

Reviewer 2 Report
This paper employs a sampling SOA-MZIs system built in parallel combinations to accomplish simultaneous up mixing of three IF signals based on a standard modulation architecture for the first time by employing Virtual Photonics Inc. (VPI) software. The highest conversion gain (CG) is reached for optical mixed signals after photo-detection from 0.5 GHz up to 97.5 GHz associated with the fifth harmonic frequency of the 53 sampling signal. The idea is interesting and novel to me, I think it can be acceptted. While the quality of the figures need to be improved.
