    摘要: A receiver system is provided for receiving a coherent Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) encoded signal. The receiver system may include an optical polarization component configured to modulate a polarization of the received coherent PAM encoded signal. The receiver system may further include a digital signal processor (DSP) configured to perform polarization recovery between the received coherent PAM encoded signal and the LO signal using a first control loop, and to perform phase recovery between the received coherent PAM encoded signal and the LO signal using a second control loop.

    摘要: A THz waveguide is described, comprising four conductive wires separated by an air gap, the THz waveguide allowing low-loss and dispersion-free propagation of a THz signal. The system for terahertz polarization-division multiplexing comprises at least two THz sources, a THz waveguide and a THz receiver, wherein said THz waveguide comprises four conductive wires separated by an air gap; THz pulses from the THz sources being coupled into the THz waveguide; the THz waveguide transmitting the THz pulses independently, the THz waveguide operating as a broadband polarization-division multiplexer. The method for terahertz polarization-division multiplexing, comprising multiplexing THz pulses from terahertz sources in free-space, coupling resulting multiplexed THz pulses into a THz waveguide comprising four conductive wires separated by an air gap; and demultiplexing the multiplexed THz pulses after propagation in the waveguide.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for network communications to reduce optical beat interference (OBI) in upstream communications are described. For example, a fiber node may provide a narrow band seed source to injection lock upstream laser diodes. Therefore, upstream communications from each injection locked laser diode may primarily include the wavelength associated with each seed source. The seed sources may be unique to each end device and configured to minimize OBI. That is, the upstream laser diodes may be generic, but the received seed source may enable upstream communications at varying wavelengths. The fiber node may provide each seed source by filtering (e.g., by a grating filter) a broadband light source.

    摘要: Coherent optical communications technology for recovery of 1D and 2D formatted optical signals. For example, 1D or 2D formatted signals that travel through fiber optic media may be recovered by separating the light into X- and Y-polarization components, rotating one polarization component (e.g., Y-component) into the polarization space of the other component (e.g., Y-component into the X-polarization space), delaying the rotated component enough to avoid destructive interference and combining the delayed component with the undelayed component to form a folded optical signal, which may then be processed as a X-polarized signal.
