Abstract:
We investigate NOMA-based optical transmission over different network configurations, including tree-like coherent PON and star-like WDN interconnects. Flexible sum 400-Gbps rates for two users at different locations are achieved below the HD-FEC threshold, demonstrating the role of power-domain NOMA in further increasing network density.
