Optical half-adder and averaging data channels using nonlinear wave mixing

Abstract

Aspects of this technical solution can include obtaining, by a first device, a first data stream carrying a first two-bit number mapped to one or more phase-encoded optical signals, obtaining, by a second device, a second data stream carrying a second two-bit number mapped to the one or more phase-encoded optical signals, encoding, based on the one or more quadrature-phase-shift-keying phases, the first data stream, and the second data stream in a 4-phase-encoded modulation format, performing the average operation on the two transmitted optical signals, and multicasting the result of the average operation to the wavelength of the two transmitted optical channels by nonlinear wave mixing.
