Coherent time- and wavelength-division multiplexed point-to-multipoint optical access network using low-cost DFB lasers enabled by a frequency comb

Coherent reception, along with time- and wavelength-division multiplexing (TWDM), is a promising concept to simultaneously support multiple services in future high-speed point-to-multipoint passive optical networks (PONs). The next-generation PON 2 (NG-PON2) standard describes a TWDM-PON based on IM/DD intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) which employs tunable-lasers and optical filters such as tunable optical filters or cyclic arrayed-waveguide gratings. Here, we investigate what we believe to be a novel coherent TWDM-PON architecture based on a frequency comb source in the optical line terminal (OLT), and thermally-tuned distributed-feedback (DFB) lasers in the optical network units (ONUs). For downstream operation, we broadcast multiple copies of two 25 GBd dual-polarization quadrature phase shift keying (DP-QPSK) signals, resulting in a total PON downstream capacity of 200 Gbit/s. The copies of the downstream signals are spanning ±2 nm (±250 GHz). In the ONUs, we align the wavelengths of the DFB lasers, which act as local oscillators (LOs), to one of the downstream signals by a thermal heater or by changing the direct current. In upstream, the already aligned DFB lasers act as transmit lasers and the frequency comb as LO. We demonstrate TWDM upstream by emulating two ONUs with 25 GBd DP-QPSK, resulting in a total PON upstream capacity of 200 Gbit/s.

Study of a Crosstalk Suppression Scheme Based on Double-Stage Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers

An all-optical crosstalk suppression scheme is desirable for wavelength and space division multiplexing optical networks by improving the performance of the corresponding nodes. We put forward a scheme comprising double-stage semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) for wavelength-preserving crosstalk suppression. The wavelength position of the degenerate pump in the optical phase conjugation (OPC) is optimized for signal-to-crosstalk ratio (SXR) improvement. The crosstalk suppression performance of the double-stage SOA scheme for 20 Gb/s quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signals is investigated by means of simulations, including the input SXR range and the crosstalk wavelength deviation. For the case with identical-frequency crosstalk, the double-stage SOA scheme can achieve equivalent SXR improvement of 1.5 dB for an input SXR of 10 dB. Thus, the double-stage SOA scheme proposed here is more suitable for few-mode fiber systems and networks.

Time Evolution of Orbital Angular Momentum Modes for Deep-Routing Multiplexing Channels

Optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) mode multiplexing has emerged as a promising technique for boosting communication capacity. However, most existing studies have concentrated on channel (de)multiplexing, overlooking the critical aspect of channel routing. This challenge involves the reallocation of multiplexed OAM modes across both spatial and temporal domains—a vital step for developing versatile communication networks. To address this gap, we introduce a novel approach based on the time evolution of OAM modes, utilizing the orthogonal conversion and diffractive modulation capabilities of unitary transformations. This approach facilitates high-dimensional orthogonal transformations of OAM mode vectors, altering both the propagation direction and the spatial location. Using Fresnel diffraction matrices as unitary operators, it manipulates the spatial locations of light beams during transmission, breaking the propagation invariance and enabling temporal evolution. As a demonstration, we have experimentally implemented the deep routing of four OAM modes within two distinct time sequences. Achieving an average diffraction efficiency above 78.31%, we have successfully deep-routed 4.69 Tbit·s−1 quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signals carried by four multiplexed OAM channels, with a bit error rate below 10–6. These results underscore the efficacy of our routing strategy and its promising prospects for practical applications.

Photonics-aided exceeding 200-Gb/s wireless data transmission over outdoor long-range 2 × 2 MIMO THz links at 300 GHz

Outdoor long-range terahertz (THz) communications often come at the expense of transmission rate. Moreover, the practicability of the single polarization optical/THz link, which is commonly used in the previous long-range THz demonstrations based on photonics, is extremely limited by the following two fatal defects. One is relying on active polarization control, and the other is not supporting the transparent bridging of optical polarization division multiplexed (PDM) signals for mature coherent optical communication networks. In this work, a large-capacity photonics-aided THz wireless communication system based on the outdoor long-range 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) links has been successfully demonstrated. We first build the 200-m 2 × 2 MIMO THz wireless links at the 300 GHz band. The cascaded linear and nonlinear equalizers are proposed which can significantly improve the transmission performance of 100- and 200-Gb/s PDM quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signals. Then an interesting 2 × 2 MIMO structure which can provide certain diversity reception gain under 200-m long-range wireless delivery using the same polarization scheme is also presented and further compared with the orthogonal polarization scheme. Since each THz receiver simultaneously receives data from both the two THz transmitters for this MIMO links, an improvement over 6 dB in receiving sensitivity and one order of magnitude in bit error ratio performance under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions can be achieved. Finally, based on the proposed cascaded equalizers and novel 2 × 2 MIMO structure, we successfully demonstrate a record-breaking 58-Gbaud (232-Gb/s) PDM-QPSK signal transmission over 200-m 2 × 2 MIMO THz wireless links. This is an important attempt for the photonics-aided THz wireless communication systems to achieve 2 × 2 MIMO transmission over a long wireless distance in the outdoors. Furthermore, attaining over 200 Gb/s at a wireless distance of 200 m also represents a key milestone for the long-range and large-capacity THz wireless communication systems.

Measuring the amplitudes of the received symbols of the shift keyed radio signals

In high-speed discrete information transmission systems, multi-position signals with various types of phase and amplitude shift keying are widely used. There are multi-level amplitude shift keyed (ASK), amplitude and phase-shift keyed (APSK) and quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signals. When demodulating the amplitude code of such signals, the amplitude of the received symbol is determined, and its calibrated value is compared with the specified threshold levels. It is proposed to directly calculate the minimum and maximum amplitudes of the symbols at the output of the demodulator, with a subsequent definition of decision thresholds. It is noteworthy that there is no need to calibrate the amplitude characteristics of the reception path. The logarithmic ratio of the amplitudes of the received and previous symbols is further calculated. And if its value falls within the specified boundaries, independent of the signal and noise, then a decision is made about whether the amplitudes of these symbols belong to the maximum or minimum values. These obtained values are averaged after that and used to set thresholds for decision-making in the demodulator. The results of the statistical simulation confirm the high efficiency of the proposed technical solution.

On chip broadband and high extinction ratios Mach-Zehnder interferometer for DPSK signal demodulation

Differential phase shift keying (DPSK) signals are widely employed in optical communication systems due to the high sensitivity and simple self-delay interference demodulation scheme. In this paper, we demonstrate a broadband on-chip Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) for multiple channel DPSK signal demodulation. The chip is constructed using a single-mode high-index doped silica glass waveguide with fiber-to-fiber insert loss less than 3 dB and small second-order dispersion. The MZI interference fringe extinction ratio is over 25 dB in the range of C- and L-bands. The MZI is employed to demodulate four parallel DPSK signals simultaneously with similar performance, indicating that the broad bandwidth MZI is suitable for a receiver of massive parallel optical communications.

Correlation properties of complete code of binary spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals with polarization coding

Problem statement. Investigation of correlation properties of complete code of binary spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals as the limiting case of large systems is a topical task for building large systems of binary spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals with polarization coding with optimal correlation properties. Also, this task is of independent academic interest due to the fact that the alphabet of symbols for these signals lacks multicasting properties unlike the familiar cases of complete codes of spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals. Objective. To accurately define the distribution laws as well as the moments about zero and the mean for the n-th order of presented values of aperiodic and periodic correlation functions of the complete code of binary spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals with polarization coding. To offer approximations of accurate distribution laws suitable for engineering applications. Results. The accurate distribution laws for presented values of aperiodic and periodic correlation functions of the complete code of binary spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals with polarization coding were found in the form of the related distribution series. The analytic expressions for the n-th order of presented values of these functions for the complete code of the specified signals were assigned. The calculation example for the distribution series of presented values of aperiodic and periodic correlation functions for the complete code of the specified signals with the length of vector code sequences N=4 was given. The values of the relative frequencies of the correlation functions values for this case were found by the means of direct computing and their exact match with the corresponding predicted probability values was demonstrated. The approximations of the accurate distribution laws were given: for periodic correlation functions case – by Gaussian probability density, and for the aperiodic functions case – by the Pearson curve of VII type. Practical relevance. The found accurate laws for presented values of aperiodic and periodic correlation functions of the complete code of binary spread spectrum phase-shift keyed signals with polarization coding and their approximations allow to assess the correlation properties of large systems of such signals.

Single-Source VLCP System Based on Solar Cell Array Receiver and Right-Angled Tetrahedron Trilateration VLP (RATT-VLP) Algorithm

A significant deployment limitation for visible light communication and positioning (VLCP) systems in energy- and light-source-restricted scenarios is the reliance of photodetectors (PDs) on external power supplies, compromising sustainability and complicating receiver charging. Solar cells (SCs), capable of harvesting and converting environmental light into electrical energy, offer a promising alternative. Consequently, we first propose an indoor VLCP system that utilizes an SC array as the receiver, alongside a right-angled tetrahedron trilateration visible light positioning (RATT-VLP) algorithm based on a single light source and multiple receivers. The proposed system uses an SC array in place of PDs, utilizing binary phase shift keying (BPSK) signals for simultaneous communication and positioning. In experiments, we verified the system’s error-free communication rate of 1.21 kbps and average positioning error of 3.40 cm in a 30 cm × 30 cm area, indicating that the system can simultaneously satisfy low-speed communication and accurate positioning applications. This provides a viable foundation for further research on SC-based VLCP systems, facilitating potential applications in environments like underwater wireless communication, positioning, and storage tank inspection.

All-optical 2-bit decoder based on a silicon waveguide device for BPSK-modulated signals

Optical computing technology has gained attention as a solution to address the computational latency caused by the resistance-capacitance (RC) delay in processors based on complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS). However, many optical computing technologies tend to rely on nonlinear effects, resulting in an increase in the device length and input light intensity to enhance nonlinear efficiency. This study proposed what we believe is a new optical decoder device based on linear effects. The device was composed of two cascaded delay-line interferometers (DLIs) made of a silicon waveguide. Targeting 2-bit binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) signals, it outputs ON state for a specific bit pattern by setting different phase conditions. The experimental results confirmed the functionality of the device, including measurements of the impulse response, evaluation of the phase-shift conditions, and successful decoding operations for a signal at 10 Gbps. The proposed decoder, which does not rely on nonlinear effects, offers advantages in terms of low latency and power consumption.

Fiber-optic parametric amplifier-based all-optical format conversion enabling optical networks interconnection with different modulation formats

A fiber-optic parametric amplifier (FOPA)-based all-optical format conversion (AOFC) scheme is proposed and numerically simulated to achieve optical networks interconnection with different modulation formats. In this scheme, the power transfer function (PTF) and the relative phase shift (RPS) functions between the input and output optical signals for the single-pump FOPA are derived and numerically analyzed. For the input 20 Gbps bipolar 4-ary pulse amplitude modulation (PAM4) signal, it can be converted into a BPSK signal (BPSK1) based on the power saturation characteristic of the PTF. By adjusting the input power of the input PAM4 signal, it can also be converted into a level-swapping PAM4 signal based on the single-pump FOPA. When the level-swapping PAM4 signal is sent into the single-pump FOPA with suitable power again, another BPSK signal (BPSK2) could also be generated. When the PAM4-to-BPSK format converter based on the single-pump FOPA is combined with the dual-pump FOPA (namely phase-sensitive amplifier, PSA), the 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM) signal can also be de-aggregated into four BPSK signals or two quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signals. The constellation diagrams, the power waveforms, the error vector magnitude (EVM) and the bit error rate (BER) of the relevant optical signals are measured to evaluate the scheme performance. The scheme can be deployed at the optical gateway to realize optical networks interconnection using different modulation formats.

Reconfigurable all-optical pattern recognition for PSK and QAM signals in high-speed optoelectronic firewalls.

In the fifth generation fixed networks (F5G) era, full-fiber-connected optical networks support emerging bandwidth-hungry services. However, optical networks are vulnerable to attack by tapping or other methods, which has been paid more and more attention in modern optical infrastructure. Therefore, high-speed optoelectronic firewalls appear as one of the promising technologies to guarantee security. The most significant and challenging component of a high-speed optoelectronic firewall is all-optical pattern recognition, especially for more advanced high-order modulation formats such as phase shift keying (PSK) or quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) to satisfy efficient enhanced fixed broadband in F5G. In this paper, what we believe to be a novel reconfigurable all-optical pattern recognition system for PSK and QAM signals is proposed with two implementation architectures. The proposed system mainly consists of a generalized XNOR (GXNOR) and a recirculating loop. The two implementation architectures are precisely two realization methods of the GXNOR part. One employs two cascaded IQ Mach-Zehnder modulators and the other is implemented by the four-wave mixing. The numerical simulation results demonstrate that the two implementation architectures can both achieve all-optical pattern recognition for the reconfigurable high-order modulation formats of QPSK, 8PSK, and 16QAM with the recorded baud rate of 260GBaud.

11.2 Gbps 100-meter free-space visible light laser communication utilizing bidirectional reservoir computing equalizer.

In this paper, we introduce an innovative post-equalization technique leveraging bidirectional reservoir computing (BiRC), and apply it to waveform-to-symbol level equalization for visible light laser communication for the first time. This strategy is more resistant to nonlinearities compared to traditional equalizers like least mean square (LMS) equalizer, while requiring less training time and fewer parameters than neural network (NN) -based equalizers. Through this approach, we successfully conduct a 100-meter transmission of a 32-amplitude phase shift keying (32APSK) signal using a green laser operating at a wavelength of 520 nm. Remarkably, our system achieves a high data rate of 11.2 Gbps, all while maintaining a satisfying bit error rate (BER) below the 7% hard decision forward error correction (HD-FEC) threshold of 3.8E-3.

Improved Frequency Sweep Keying CDMA Using Faster R-CNN for Extended Ultrasonic Crosstalk Reduction

Ultrasonic sensors are inexpensive and provide highly accurate measurements, even with simple hardware configurations, facilitating their use in various fields. When multiple ultrasonic sensors exist in the measurement space, crosstalk occurs due to other nodes, which leads to incorrect measurements. Crosstalk includes not only receiving homogeneous signals from other nodes, but also overlapping by other signals and interference by heterogeneous signals. This paper proposes using frequency sweep keying modulation to provide robustness against overlap and a faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN) demodulator to reduce the interference caused by heterogeneous signals. The demodulator works by training Faster R-CNN with the spectrograms of various received signals and classifying the received signals using Faster R-CNN. Experiments implementing an ultrasonic crosstalk environment showed that, compared to on–off keying (OOK), phase-shift keying (PSK), and frequency-shift keying (FSK), the proposed method can implement CDMA even with shorter codes and is robust against overlap. Compared to correlation-based frequency sweep keying, the time-of-flight error was reduced by approximately 75%. While the existing demodulators did not consider heterogeneous signals, the proposed method ignored approximately 99% of the OOK and PSK signals and approximately 79% of the FSK signals. The proposed method performed better than the existing methods and is expected to be used in various applications.

Flexible All-Optical 8QAM Signal Format Conversion Using Pump Assisted Nonlinear Optical Loop Mirror

A flexible all-optical format interconversion scheme based on a pump assisted nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) is proposed and numerically simulated for the first time to our knowledge. In this scheme, input multi-Gbps 8QAM signals are divided into clockwise (CW) and counter-clockwise (CCW) components by a 3-dB optical coupler (OC), which also couples light from the input pump into the NOLM from the CCW direction. The numerical model of the pump assisted NOLM with CW and CCW optical paths is simplified using a nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). Optical signals in the upper MZI arm will be mainly affected by the self-phase modulation (SPM) effect when traversing the highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) and those in the lower MZI arm are impacted by cross-phase modulation (XPM) in addition to SPM when they experience the HNLF with the input pump light. When the upper-arm optical signal with SPM phase shift and the lower arm optical signal with SPM and XPM phase shifts are coherently mixed, a new converted 8QAM signal can be obtained. The power transfer function (PTF) of the pump assisted NOLM and the relative phase shift (RPS) between the input and the output optical signals are theoretically provided and verified. By only changing the input power of the 8QAM signal and the pump light, all-optical format interconversion of square-, standard- and star-shaped 8QAM signals can be achieved. Furthermore, the proposed scheme can achieve format conversion from the 30 Gbps square-shaped 8QAM signal to a 20 Gbps quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signal. The scheme performance is analyzed via constellation diagrams, eye diagrams, the error vector magnitude (EVM) and the bit error rate (BER) of the optical signals. The scheme developed can be deployed in optical gateways to connect different optical networks by dynamically selecting their appropriate modulation formats.

Partially decoupled polarization demultiplexing and phase noise equalizer for Alamouti code-based simplified coherent systems.

Alamouti space-time block code (STBC) combined with a simple heterodyne coherent receiver can realize polarization-insensitive phase-diversity detection to reduce the cost. In the receiver, a joint equalizer has been used for STBC's polarization demultiplexing and phase tracking. However, the joint equalizer requires two different step size parameters to update the tap weight coefficients for polarization demultiplexing and the phase noise estimation. This leads to the search process being complex so requiring more iterations for convergence. In this paper, we propose a partially decoupled equalizer that consists of a polarization and phase decoupled equalizer (PPDE) and a pilot-aided blind phase search (P-BPS) algorithm to accelerate the convergence and improve the phase noise tolerance. By theoretically calculating the phase noise, the PPDE can achieve polarization demultiplexing with only one single step size parameter, thus suppressing the searching space and greatly reducing the iterations required for convergence. In the carrier phase recovery stage, the P-BPS algorithm can effectively improve the phase noise tolerance and solve the cyclic slip problem of BPS. We conduct numerical simulations and an experiment to transmit a quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signal. The results demonstrate that the number of iterations required for PPDE convergence is only half of that of the joint equalizer while maintaining polarization-insensitive characteristics in large phase noise. Meanwhile, the achievable linewidth tolerance of P-BPS is increased by three times compared with DD-LMS.

Characterization of the coding gain for M-PSK with conjoint signals under correlated Nakagami-m fading channels

In the paper, a comprehensive analysis is presented on the conjoint coding gain achieved in arbitrarily correlated M-ary phase-shift keying (M-PSK) signals in a spatial diversity system. The system operates over Nakagami-m fading channels and is affected by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). The proposed signal synthesizer primarily induces an even phase shift in the output signals. To enhance the coding gain, an orthogonal transformation matrix is introduced, which effectively preserves energy and operates independently of the channel correlation matrix, making it blind to signal information measurements. The main objective is to generate additional copies of conjoint signals from the received signals, simulating the scenario as if there were more antennas deployed. To evaluate the system’s performance in terms of symbol error rate (SER), an analytical framework is developed and its accuracy is validated through Monte-Carlo simulations. Moreover, extensive tests are conducted to explore the impact of different antenna configurations and fading severity levels. The fading severity, denoted as ’m’, is varied in the experiments, considering values of 0.5, 1, 3, and 7. Additionally, the measurements incorporate varying antenna spacing values relative to the signal carrier wavelength, specifically 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5. The results obtained from the experiments demonstrate that the coding gains achieved depend on the value of ’m’, with higher gains observed for lower ’m’ values. However, as ’m’ increases, the coding gains become negligible.

100Gb/s coherent optical secure communication over 1000 km based on analog-digital hybrid chaos.

In recent years, the transmission capacity of chaotic secure communications has been greatly expanded by combining coherent detection and multi-dimensional multiplexing. However, demonstrations over 1000 km fiber are yet to be further explored. In this paper, we propose a coherent optical secure transmission system based on analog-digital hybrid chaos. By introducing an analog-digital converter (ADC) and a bit extraction into the feedback loop of entropy source, the broadband analog chaos is converted into a binary digital signal. This binary digital signal is then mapped to a 65536-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) signal and injected into the semiconductor laser (SL) to regenerate the analog chaos, forming a closed loop. The binary digital signal from the chaos source and the encrypted signal are transmitted via wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). By using conventional digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms and neural networks for post-compensation, long-haul high-quality chaotic synchronization and high-performance secure communication are achieved. In addition, the probability density distribution of the analog chaotic signal is effectively improved by adopting the additional higher-order mapping operation in the digital part of the chaos source. The proof-of-concept experimental results show that our proposed scheme can support the secure transmission of 100 Gb/s quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signals over 1000 km of standard single-mode fiber (SSMF). The decrypted bit error rate (BER) reaches 9.88 × 10-4, which is well below the 7% forward error correction (FEC) threshold (BER = 3.8 × 10-3). This research provides a potential solution for high-capacity long-haul chaotic optical communications and fills the gap in secure communications based on analog-digital hybrid chaos.

On the Effect of Imperfect Reference Signal Phase Recovery on Performance of PSK System Influenced by TWDP Fading.

We examine the effects of imperfect phase estimation of a reference signal on the bit error rate and mutual information over a communication channel influenced by fading and thermal noise. The Two-Wave Diffuse-Power (TWDP) model is utilized for statistical characterization of propagation environment where there are two dominant line-of-sight components together with diffuse ones. We derive novel analytical expression of the Fourier series for probability density function arising from the composite received signal phase. Further, the expression for the bit error rate is presented and numerically evaluated. We develop efficient analytical, numerical and simulation methods for estimating the value of the error floor and identifying the range of acceptable signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values in cases when the floor is present during the detection of multilevel phase-shift keying (PSK) signals. In addition, we use Monte Carlo simulations in order to evaluate the mutual information for modulation orders two, four and eight, and identify its dependence on receiver hardware imperfections under the given channel conditions. Our results expose direct correspondence between bit error rate and mutual information value on one side, and the parameters of TWDP channel, SNR and phase noise standard deviation on the other side. The results illustrate that the error floor values are strongly influenced by the phase noise when signals propagate over a TWDP channel. In addition, the phase noise considerably affects the mutual information.

Wireless Signal Transmission at the 2 and 3 THz-Band Enabled by Photonics-Based Transmitter and Hot Electron Bolometer Mixer

We have demonstrated terahertz (THz) wireless transmission of quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signals at 2 and 3 THz-bands. Despite higher atmospheric attenuation at frequencies above 1 THz, it might be applicable for short-range wireless communications. The proposed system is composed of a photonics-based transmitter using an optical comb source and a heterodyne receiver system using a hot electron bolometer mixer (HEBM). In the transmitter, THz signals are generated by photomixing of optical carriers extracted from broadband optical combs. The receiver system consists of a quasi-optical HEBM and a phase-locked THz quantum cascade laser (THz-QCL) as a local oscillator (LO). Although the emission power of the photonics-based transmitter was on the order of tens of nW, it could be received with sufficient SNRs due to high sensitivity of the HEBM. Demonstrations of signal transmission were carried out with 2 and 3 THz-band. Optical carriers were modulated with basic LTE FDD R9 uplink signals with full filled QPSK, and converted to THz signals, transmitting to the receiver system. The THz signals were successfully demodulated, in which error vector magnitude (EVM) values of the demodulated signal was about 22% and 30% for 2 and 3 THz-band, respectively.

Spectrally efficient multi-service fiber-wireless access in low-cost direct-detection THz system at 300 GHz.

This Letter demonstrates a novel, to the best of knowledge, overlapping single-sideband (OSSB) transmission scheme for spectrally efficient multi-service fiber-wireless (FiWi) access in a low-cost direct-detection (DD) THz system. Utilizing the proposed OSSB scheme, user data from different services can share the same spectrum resource yet can be successfully demodulated via one cost-effective DD THz receiver in conjunction with the Kramers-Kronig (KK) based SSB field reconstruction and look-up table (LUT) enabled signal separation algorithms. A proof-of-principle experiment is conducted. Based on an IQ modulator and a single THz zero-bias diode (ZBD), two independent 10-GBd quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signals with an overlapped spectrum are successfully demodulated after 20-km fiber and up to 3-m wireless transmission at the 300-GHz band. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of multi-service FiWi access with an OSSB format in a 300-GHz DD THz system.
