Abstract
We present a photonic BiCMOS coherent receiver dedicated to the O-band and achieve detection at up to 56 GBd using quadrature-phase shift-keying (QPSK) at various optical signal-to-noise ratios (OSNRs). Transmission experiments are performed and potential applications within that power budget are discussed.
