In this paper, we propose leveraging null subcarriers in discrete multi-tone modulation (DMT) to process the DMT signal in both time and frequency domains. Additionally, we employ discrete memory enhanced chaos (DMEC) to scramble the signal in the frequency domain, thereby achieving physical layer signal encryption while ensuring a more uniform power distribution in the time-domain waveform. In our experimental demonstration, we achieved high-security transmission of a DSM-based 65536-QAM signal at a data rate of 16.01 Gb/s over a 25 km single-mode fiber (SMF) in an intensity-modulation direct-detection (IMDD) system. Additionally, in the transmission experiments for 13684-QAM and 65536-QAM signals, the proposed method demonstrated a receiver sensitivity gain of over 0.5 dB compared to the traditional DSM-based ultrahigh-order transmission.

A joint constellation shaping (JCS) three-dimensional (3D) 16-ary modulation scheme constructed with a pair of common-bottomed trigonal cones (CBTC) as primitives is proposed. Compared to the 3D traditional constellation (TC) and the 3D geometric constellation shaping (GS) structure previously proposed by our group (GGS), the constellation figure of merit (CFM) is improved by 0.3906 and 0.0097, respectively. Meanwhile, probabilistic shaping (PS) is employed to optimize the 3D-CBTC-16CAP constellation structure for the second time to enhance the CFM of the constellation further. Compared to the 3D-CBTC-16CAP, after PS the 3D-JCS-16CAP has a CFM improvement of 0.5014. Experiments are carried out to transmit the signals across a 2 km seven-core fiber. At the bit error rate (BER) threshold ∼3.8 × 10 -3 , the 3D-CBTC-16CAP scheme demonstrates an improvement in the receiver sensitivity by 0.76 and 0.39 dB compared with 3D-TC-16CAP and 3D-GGS-16CAP. In addition, the transmission effect of the signals after joint PS is verified. Experiments show that the proposed 3D-JCS-16CAP scheme has the most significant enhancement effect when used in conjunction with PS, and the receiver sensitivity is improved by about 0.97 and 0.34 dB compared with the 3D-JTC-16CAP (3D-TC-16CAP signal after joint PS) and 3D-JGGS-16CAP (3D-GGS-16CAP signal after the joint PS).

In this paper, a dynamic updated key distribution encryption scheme based on syncretic W band-passive optical network (PON) is proposed. The 102 Gb/s encrypted data rate using 64QAM is successfully transmitted over the 50 m wireless distance under 15% soft-decision forward error correction (SD-FEC) for a pre-FEC bit error rate (BER) threshold of 1.56 × 10 -2 . The scheme can realize an error-free public key transmission and public key updates up to 10 14 times. In the encryption transmission system, there is a small deviation of the private key, and the received BER is more than 0.45. As far as we know, this is the first time to complete a dynamic key distribution based on a syncretic W band-PON system.

In this Letter, we propose a method for ultrahigh-order QAM secure transmission and key distribution based on delta-sigma modulation (DSM) and discrete memristive-enhanced chaos (DMEC). The disturbance vectors generated by the DMEC scramble the DSM signals in both frequency and time domains, resulting in highly secure DSM signals. Through the key modulation and power adjustment and then superimposing them on the encrypted signals, the method achieves simultaneous transmission of keys and signals without the need for additional spectral resources. This approach allows for secure communication with continuous key iteration and updates, offering an effective solution for implementing "one-time pad" encryption. In the experimental demonstration, we achieved a secure transmission and key distribution of a 16384QAM signal at a rate of 17.09 Gb/s over 25 km in an intensity-modulated direct detection (IMDD) system, based on DSM.

In this Letter, a new, to the best of our knowledge, geometric shaping method for an ultrahigh-order 16384-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (16384QAM) constellation based on the delta-sigma modulation technique is proposed. Based on the characteristics of delta-sigma modulation, the constellation was optimized to obtain greater constellation gain and improve the maximum performance of the system. Finally, the proposed scheme was demonstrated on an intensity-modulated direct detection (IMDD) system through a 25 km single-mode fiber transmission. On performing experiments, it was found that the suggested approach increases the receiver sensitivity of ultrahigh-order QAM communication systems based on delta-sigma modulation by around 0.5 dB and further enhances the error performance limit.

In this paper, an artificial-intelligence-based secure semantic optical communication scheme is proposed. The semantic features of the original text information are extracted using Transformer. Compared with other networks, Transformer reduces the complexity of the structure and the associated training cost by using the multi-head attention mechanism. To solve the security problem, the encryption scheme is applied to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed passive optical network (OFDM-PON). The proposed scheme applies chaotic sequences to produce masking vectors. We encrypt the constellation and frequency, achieving a large key space of 1 × 10 270 . To prove that Transformer can effectively extract the semantic features of text, we have computed the values of ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, and ROUGE-L, which are 40.9, 18.02, and 37.17, respectively. An encrypted 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM) OFDM signal transmission over a 2 km seven-core fiber with a data rate of 78.5 Gbits/s was experimentally demonstrated. During the experiments, the bit error rate (BER) was analyzed and the results show that the proposed system improves efficiency and security in an OFDM-PON system.
