Abstract
Enabling communication networks with sensing functionality has attracted significant interest lately. The digital subcarrier multiplexing (DSCM) technology is widely promoted in short-reach scenarios for its inherent flexibility of fine-tuning the spectrum. Its compatibility with large-scale as-deployed coherent architectures makes it particularly suited for cost-sensitive integrated sensing and communication applications. In this paper, we propose a scheme of spectrally integrating the digital linear frequency modulated sensing signal into DSCM signals to achieve simultaneous sensing and communication through shared transmitter. Consequently, this cost-effective scheme has been demonstrated to achieve 100-Gb/s dual-polarization quadrature phase-shift keying (DP-QPSK) and 200-Gb/s dual-polarization 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (DP-16QAM) transmission with a distributed acoustic sensing sensitivity of 69 pε/Hz and 88 pε/Hz respectively, at a spatial resolution of 4 m.
