LO-freeNo independent receiver local oscillator

SVDD system architecture

Reference light travels with the signal, so the receiver does not require an independent local oscillator (LO).

Photonic and electronic co-design

Co-designing a silicon photonic receiver front end with analog equalization for receiver-side polarization and chromatic-dispersion compensation.

Ultra-Low-Cost Coherent Architecture

Uncooled DFB lasers, no receiver local oscillator, and compatibility with direct-detection DSPs and components substantially reduce overall module cost.
