Coarse optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing for optical datacommunication applications

We propose a new low-cost solution using orthogonal transmission of non-return-to-zero and carrierless-amplitude-and-phase format data to realize a coarse OFDM transmission system. Using low bandwidth electronics and optoelectronic components, the system is demonstrated at 37.5Gb/s. © 2011 OSA.

On-line learning of mutually orthogonal subspaces for face recognition by image sets.

We address the problem of face recognition by matching image sets. Each set of face images is represented by a subspace (or linear manifold) and recognition is carried out by subspace-to-subspace matching. In this paper, 1) a new discriminative method that maximises orthogonality between subspaces is proposed. The method improves the discrimination power of the subspace angle based face recognition method by maximizing the angles between different classes. 2) We propose a method for on-line updating the discriminative subspaces as a mechanism for continuously improving recognition accuracy. 3) A further enhancement called locally orthogonal subspace method is presented to maximise the orthogonality between competing classes. Experiments using 700 face image sets have shown that the proposed method outperforms relevant prior art and effectively boosts its accuracy by online learning. It is shown that the method for online learning delivers the same solution as the batch computation at far lower computational cost and the locally orthogonal method exhibits improved accuracy. We also demonstrate the merit of the proposed face recognition method on portal scenarios of multiple biometric grand challenge.

Orthogonal multipulse modulation for next-generation datacommunication links

Orthogonal multipulse modulation is demonstrated to allow ≈30 Gb/s real-time transmission over multimode fibre using an 850 nm VCSEL. The scheme eases considerably component bandwidth requirements compared with conventional NRZ modulation. © 2011 OSA.

Optimization on the orthogonal group for independent component analysis

This paper derives a new algorithm that performs independent component analysis (ICA) by optimizing the contrast function of the RADICAL algorithm. The core idea of the proposed optimization method is to combine the global search of a good initial condition with a gradient-descent algorithm. This new ICA algorithm performs faster than the RADICAL algorithm (based on Jacobi rotations) while still preserving, and even enhancing, the strong robustness properties that result from its contrast. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.

Orthogonal multipulse modulation for 64 Gigabit Fibre Channel

Real-time orthogonal multipulse modulation is demonstrated at 56 Gb/s with transmission over 500 m of single-mode fiber. Up to 2 dBo power budget advantage is predicted relative to alternatives such as PAM4. © 2013 OSA.

Orthogonal multipulse modulation in optical datacommunications

Optical datacommunication links are now required at rates beyond 40 Gb/s. Achieving robust low-cost transmission at these rates necessitates consideration of advanced modulation formats. This paper concentrates on schemes using multiple orthogonal pulses and outlines the advantages relative to alternatives such as multilevel modulation. Recent real-time experimental results at 56 Gb/s are described. © 2013 IEEE.
