N-dimentional multiplexing link with 1.036-Pbit/s transmission capacity and 112.6-bit/s/Hz spectral efficiency using OFDM-8QAM signals over 368 WDM pol-muxed 26 OAM modes

Abstract

By exploiting N-dimensional multiplexing, i.e. 54.139-Gbit/s OFDM-8QAM signals over 368 WDM pol-muxed 26 orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes, we experimentally demonstrate a free-space data link with an aggregate transmission capacity of 1.036 Pbit/s and a high spectral efficiency of 112.6 bit/s/Hz.

“…Mode division multiplexing of vortex beams carrying different OAM in multimode fibers is attracting much interest for increasing the bandwidth in a fiber. Peta bit/s scale large capacity transmission has been discussed using OAM mode multiplexing [56]. Various vortex beam generators have been reported using computer hologram7 [57], spiral phase plate [58], micro disk laser and so on.…”

“…However, these benefits come at the cost of the high receiver expense and complexity that increases with the number of modes. By using OAM multiplexing as an additional degree of freedom to polarization and wavelength, coherent laboratory experiment has achieved more than 1 Pbit/s capacity using 26 modes [4].…”
