Experimental demonstration of multi-level modulation on OFDM signals using integrated silicon modulators

Multi-level modulation on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals is experimentally demonstrated by an integrated silicon Mach-Zehnder modulator. The measured bit error rate is well below the forward error correction (FEC) threshold.
