Abstract
Extraordinary demand of internet services is challenging the growth capacity of datacenters and their networks. In particular, interconnect suppliers will need to explore radical solutions in order to keep up with bandwidth expectations from service providers. In this paper, we discuss key paths towards multi-dimensional detection in interconnect channels that will be relevant for hyper-scale datacenters. The emphasis is on highlighting challenges and opportunities of receiver architectures that have recently been pitched to
replace intensity modulation and direct detection in the datacenter interconnect scenario.
