Abstract

Wavelength multiplexing is a method for encoding spatial information into spectral information. Previously, each point of a one-dimensional image corresponds to a specific wavelength. All wavelengths together can be transmitted in scrambled fashion through a single light fiber. Decoding into the original image is achieved by sending the transmitted light through a spectroscope. This process again displays the various wavelengths at various positions along a line. In this project, two-dimensional spatial information or grey tone images are encoded into a spectral distribution. After transmission through a light fiber this spectrum can be decoded into the original two-dimensional image. Four different encoding versions are presented, which use serial transmission parallel transmission, shifted light coupling or spatial pulse modulation.
