Funded Activity Summary

Optical MIMO in Stokes Space: Bridging Coherent and Non-Coherent Detection. Coherent detection aided by high-speed electronic digital signal processors has transformed optical communications within the last decade. However, the high complexity of coherent detection has constrained its application to long-haul transmission. This project aims to propose a novel modulation format based on optical multiple-input multiple-output in Stokes space that can bridge the gap between coherent and non-coherent communication. The proposed research includes design, simulation, and experimental verification of the proposed Stokes vector detection. The successful implementation of the project is expected to provide enabling technologies to future high-speed transport for interconnecting data centres that underpin fast-growing cloud computing.
