“…It is, however, in line with near-future advances in technology as predicted in [24,25] or it can be custom designed [24][25][26][27][28][29]. Furthermore, high-speed 16-bit detectors are currently available (some of the papers referenced herein report on detectors with up to 20-bit resolution) [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. These detectors introduce shot noise that is at a level of less than −48 dB and a BER of less than 10 −10 .…”

A fast, power-efficient electro-optical vector-by-matrix multiplier (VMM) architecture is presented. Careful design of an electrical unit supporting high-speed data transfer enables this architecture to overcome bottlenecks encountered by previous VMM architectures. Based on the proposed architecture, we present an electro-optical digital signal processing (DSP) coprocessor that can achieve a significant speedup of 2-3 orders of magnitude over existing DSP technologies and execute more than 16 teraflops. We show that it is feasible to implement the system using off-the-shelf components, analyze the performance of the architecture with respect to primitive DSP operations, and detail the use of the new architecture for several DSP applications.

“…Thus, the power consumption of the VCSEL unit is also a fraction of a watt. Finally, according to [24,25,[32][33][34] the power consumption of the detectors can be extremely low-just a fraction of a watt. Hence, the power consumption of the VMM optical subsystems is very low and is less than one watt.…”
