    摘要: An analog to digital converter (ADC) structure and method includes a photonic filter bank having at least two filters. The at least two filters are configured to create a corresponding spectral tributary from an input signal at a target rate, and the at least two filters are configured to exhibit orthogonality properties between respective tributaries. An optical/electrical (O/E) converter is coupled to each of the at least two filters in a respective spectral tributary to convert an optical input to an electrical output. An analog to digital converter (ADC) is coupled to each of the O/E converters in a respective spectral tributary to sample the electrical output at a fraction of a target rate and to convert a sampled analog electrical output into a digital signal. A synthesis filter is coupled to each of the ADCs in a respective spectral tributary to reconstruct the input signal digitally at the target rate.

    摘要: Optical superchannel methods and systems that couple two or more local oscillators into a single coherent receiver front end to receive multiple optical subcarriers are shown and described. With multiple local oscillators coupled into a single coherent receiver and appropriate optical selective filtering of the superchannel signal, non-neighboring subcarriers may be received by the single coherent optical receiver.
