1. A system comprising:

  • a first processor having N first input ports and N first output ports, N being a positive integer greater than 1, for receiving concurrently N first signals at the N first input ports, performing an N-to-N wavefront multiplexing transform on the N first signals and outputting concurrently N first wavefront multiplexed signals at the N first output ports such that the N first wavefront multiplexed signals are orthogonal to one another and each of the N first wavefront multiplexed signals is a respective linear combination of the N first signals; and

    a first set of optical modulators coupled to the first processor, for converting the N first wavefront multiplexed signals into first optical mode groups for transmission in a multi-mode fiber,wherein the respective linear combination is a sum of products of the N first signals at the N first input ports and corresponding wavefront components of the N-to-N wavefront multiplexing transform.
