We implement a dynamic logic gate which consists of three elements: a chaotic fiber laser, a threshold controller and the output of the logic gate. The output signal of the fiber laser is sent to the logic gate input as to the threshold controller; threshold controller output signal is sent at the entrance of the logic gate and also feedback to the fiber laser which changes their dynamic behavior. The output of the logic gate consists of a difference amplifier; this compares the signals sent by the threshold controller and the fiber laser, resulting logic output that depend on an accessible parameter in threshold controller. We present the numerical results and experimental of the implementation of a dynamic logic gate using fiber laser, which demonstrates the ability to change the type of logic gate by modifying a parameter of threshold control.
