The dynamical behavior exhibited by a nonlinear delay optical phase dynamics, together with the derivation of a model is investigated. The first experimental demonstration of broadband (>10GHz) and high quality chaos cancellation through a uni-directional emitter/receiver coupling (synchronization error lower than -10 dB over the full 10 GHz bandwidth). The paper also show how fast DPSK messages might be encoded and decoded all optically.
