Abstract:
A method includes producing interference between a received optical OFDM signal and an optical carrier extracted from the received optical OFDM signal to provide optical coherent detection of the received optical OFDM signal. Preferably, producing the interference includes optically splitting the received optical OFDM signal into a first part that is filtered to extract the carrier from the received optical OFDM signal and a second part similar to the received optical OFDM signal.
