Abstract

In this article we present high spectral efficiency DMT transmissions over 20 m of Step-Index polymethyl methacrylate optical fiber in the visible range. We demonstrated that using illumination light emitting diodes at 450, 520, 560 and 650 nm it is possible to achieve as high as 6.39 bits/s/Hz for a pre- Forward Error Correction with a target Bit Error Rate of 10-3. The optical source at 560 nm was developed in our laboratory and then we demonstrated its usage as a new channel in WDM system.
