Abstract
In recent years, extracting information from superposed vortex beams has been a topic of intense study. In this paper, complex coefficients of various superpositions are measured in both simulation and experiment by proposing and implementing four different sampling methods. Superposed vortex beams are experimentally generated using a digital micromirror device, and recorded on a 2 f optical imaging setup. To extract both amplitude and phase values of modal coefficients, a single intensity frame of the beam is sampled in the form of concentric circles, sectors, random circles, and random squares. Considering just specified parts of the intensity instead of the whole to sample the pattern increases the speed of the modal coefficient extraction. Besides, a linear set of coherent equations is solved, and achievements are compared together. As a consequence, measuring both the amplitude and phase values of coefficients simultaneously can pave the way to enable high-capacity optical communication which is carried out in this research with better than 99% and 96% accuracy, respectively.
