摘要： Following the explosive growth of global data, there is an ever-increasing demand for high-throughput optical fiber communication (OFC) systems to perform massive data transmission and processing. Existing OFC methods mainly rely on electronic circuits for data processing, which severely limits the communication throughput. Though considered promising for the next-generation high-speed fiber communication, all-optical OFC remains unachievable due to serious challenges in effective optical computing, system modeling and configuring. Here we propose an end-to-end photonic encoder-decoder (PED) processor which maps the physical system of OFC into an optical generative neural network. By modeling the OFC transmission process as the variation in the constructed optical latent space, the PED learns noise-resistant coding schemes via unsupervised optimization. With multi-layer parametric diffractive neural networks, the PED establishes a large-scale and high-throughput optical computing framework that integrates the main OFC computations including coding, encryption and compression to the optical domain. The whole system improves the latency of computation in OFC systems by five orders of magnitude compared with the state-of-the-art device. On benchmarking datasets, the PED experimentally achieves up to 32% reduction in transmission error ratio (ER) than on-off keying (OOK), one of the mainstream methods with the lowest ER in general transmission. As we demonstrate on medical data, the PED increases the transmission throughput by two orders of magnitude than 8-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-8). We believe the proposed photonic encoder-decoder processor not only paves the way to the next-generation all-optical OFC systems, but also promotes a wide range of AI-based physical system designs.
