Abstract

A photonic communication system in which a host communicates bidirectionally with a target via a single optical fiber using light of the same wavelength and from the same light source. Signals flowing in opposite directions are discriminated based on polarity. Using the same fiber and light source in both directions reduces cost, complexity, and power consumption.
