Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes combined with polarization scramblers are used to mitigate polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in 40-Gb/s optical fiber system. The simulations are performed to compare the correction performance of LDPC codes and Reed
In this Letter, we propose a simple and effective approach for transforming a conventional Talbot array illuminator (TAI) with multilevel phase steps into a binary-phase TAI (BP-TAI) through detour phase encoding. The BP-TAI is a binary (0
We provide an overview of our recent work on developing subwavelength grating (SWG) waveguide devices as an enabling technology for integrated microwave photonics. First, we describe wavelength-selective SWG waveguide filters, including ring resonators, B
Electromagnetic vortices, which describe the orbital angular momentum (OAM) carrying waves with a helical phase front, have recently attracted much interest in a radio frequency domain due to their potential applications in many diverse areas. In an OAM-b
