Efficient hierarchical list decoder for massive optical MIMO transmission

Opt Express. 2008 Jan 21;16(2):718-24. doi: 10.1364/oe.16.000718.

Abstract

We propose a novel MIMO scheme over multimode fiber, acting as a distributed random code generator fed by spatial codes, using silicon photonics in the transmitter and efficient list-based hierarchical submaximum-likelihood electronic detection in the receiver, providing an alternative to CWDM for implementation of ultra-high speed parallel transmission over short-range optical interconnects.
