Abstract
Vertical cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with gigahertz bandwidth and good beam quality possess great potential for multi-wavelength free-space optical communication. In this Letter, a compact optical antenna system utilizing a ring-like VCSEL array that can realize the parallel transmission of multi-channel and multi-wavelength collimated laser beams and has the advantages of aberration elimination and high transmission efficiency is proposed. Ten different signals can be transmitted simultaneously, greatly increasing the channel capacity. Based on the vector theory of reflection, ray tracing and the performance of the proposed optical antenna system are demonstrated. This design method has a certain reference value for designing complex optical communication systems with high transmission efficiency.
