Abstract :
The realization of spectral encoding of low-cost broadband light sources using acoustically tunable optical filters is discussed. We show the feasibility of source equalization and spectral code generation by some experiments. Finally, for the first time a polarization independent single-chip solution for transmitter and receiver is proposed
