    Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises: a coherent optical receiver front-end circuit to receive an optical signal comprising information and further to receive a local oscillator optical signal, and output an orthogonal electrical signal based on the optical signal; a processing circuit coupled to the coherent optical receiver front-end circuit to receive the orthogonal electrical signal and process the orthogonal electrical signal to generate therefrom sum of squares information; and a non-coherent receiver coupled to the processing circuit to recover the information from the sum of squares information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
