Spatial domain multiplexing (SDM) is a system that allows multiple channels of light to traverse a single fiber, utilizing separate spatial regions inside the carrier fiber, thereby applying a new degree of photon freedom for optical fiber communications. These channels follow a helical pattern, the screen projection of which is viewable as concentric rings at the output end of the system. The MIMO nature of the SDM system implies that a typical pin-diode or APD will be unable to distinguish between these channels, as the diode will interpret the combination of the SDM signals from all channels as a single …

Architecture Of An All Optical De-Multiplexer For Spatially Multiplexed Channels, Syed H. Murshid, Michael F. Finch, Gregory L. Lovell

Multiple channels of light can propagate through a multimode fiber without interfering with each other and can be independently detected at the output end of the fiber using spatial domain multiplexing (SDM). Each channel forms a separate concentric ring at the output. The typical single pin-diode structure cannot simultaneously detect and demultiplex the multiple channel propagation supported by the SDM architecture. An array of concentric circular pindiodes can be used to simultaneously detect and de-multiplex the SDM signals; however, an all optical solution is generally preferable. This paper presents simple architecture for an all optical SDM de-multiplexer.

Spatial Domain Multiplexing (SDM) is a novel optical fiber multiplexing technique where multiple channels of the same wavelength are launched at specific angles inside a standard step index multimode carrier fiber. These channels are confined to specific locations inside the fiber and they do not interfere with each other while traversing the length of the fiber. Spatial filtering techniques are employed at the output end to separate, route and process the individual channels. These skew ray channels inside the SDM system follow a helical trajectory along the fiber. The screen projection of the skew rays resembles a circular polygon. A …


Cad Model For Co-Propagating Spatially Multiplexed Channels Of Same Wavelength Over Standard Multimode Fibers, Syed H. Murshid, Raka Biswas, Abhijit Chakravarty Apr 2009

Cad Model For Co-Propagating Spatially Multiplexed Channels Of Same Wavelength Over Standard Multimode Fibers, Syed H. Murshid, Raka Biswas, Abhijit Chakravarty

Spatial Domain Multiplexing (SDM) is a novel technique that allows co-propagation of two or more optical communication channels of the same wavelengths over a single strand of optical fiber cable by maintaining spatial separation between the channels. Spatial multiplexer known as the beam combiner module (BCM) supports helical propagation of light to ensure spatial separation between the channels. It is inserted at the input end of the system. Spatial de-multiplexing is achieved by a unit named beam separator module (BSM). This unit is inserted at the receiving end of the system and it routes the optical energy from individual channels …
