Hybrid integration of Polymer PICs and InP optoelectronics for WDM and SDM terabit intra-DC optical interconnects
This paper presents a hybrid photonic integration concept based on the use of a polymer motherboard, InP EML arrays and InP PD arrays to realize WDM and SDM Terabit optical engines operating at 100-Gb/s or even at 20! 0-Gb/s per lane. The optical...
Highly Sensitive Switchable Sensors for Hydroxide on Glass Surfaces Based on Isoquinolinium-Quinolinium-substituted Acetylenes
Bi-substituted acetylenes with a quinolinium and an isoquinolinium substituent are described, which reversibly form intensely colored adducts with O-nucleophiles and thus enable the detection of >0,5 ppm hydroxide on the surfaces of various...
AudioMNIST: Exploring Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Audio Analysis on a Simple Benchmark
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is targeted at understanding how models perform feature selection and derive their classification decisions. This paper explores post-hoc explanations for deep neural networks in the audio domain....
A Performance Comparison of OFDM and Pulsed PHY Modulations in Optical Wireless Communications
Experimental tests of the OFDM and OOK-based PHYs in the Li-Fi standard IEEE 802.15.13-2023 show that the higher peak data rates of OFDM and the longer reach of OOK make them suitable for deployment in down- and uplink use cases, respectively.
Full-Duplex Operation of ISAC: Self-Interference Reduction from the Lens of IRS
This paper addresses the self-interference problem in full duplex operation by leveraging an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) to provide spatial separation of the transmitted and the received (i.e. reflected) signal in a monostatic sensing...
4 Gbit/s optical wireless communication with high-power transmitter
We demonstrate data rates up to 4 Gbit/s with a VCSEL-based transmitter prototype using pulsed on-off-keying modulation for high-speed LiFi with a large coverage area.
L4S Congestion Control Algorithm for Interactive Low Latency Applications over 5G
In recent years, immersive applications such as Cloud XR have emerged, which require very low latency to ensure a high quality of experience. This paper presents a congestion control algorithm combined with L4S to achieve stable and low latency...
Guard-ring free InGaAs/InP single photon avalanche diodes for C-band quantum communication
We present a guard-ring free InGaAs/InP single photon avalanche diode with 20 µm diameter for the optical C-band. At 225 K, 25.6 µs dead time and 17% detection efficiency, the dark count rate is 3 kcps with 0.5% afterpulsing probability. This...
From Empirical Measurements to Augmented Data Rates: A Machine Learning Approach for MCS Adaptation in Sidelink Communication
Due to the lack of a feedback channel in the C-V2X sidelink, finding a suitable MCS level is a difficult task. In this paper, we propose an ML approach that uses quantile prediction to predict the MCS level with the highest achievable data rate....
