1. A method of communication comprising:
- receiving a data set comprising a plurality of data items;
analyzing the data set to determine a plurality of distinct data values of the plurality of data items;
associating, based on the analysis of the data set, each distinct data value with a respective wavelength among a plurality of wavelengths; and
transmitting each data item, one data item at a time, as an optical signal at the wavelength associated with the distinct data value of the data item.

Abstract
In an example, a method of communication includes receiving a data set comprising a plurality of data items, and analyzing the data set to determine a plurality of distinct data values of the plurality of data items. The method also includes associating, based on the analysis of the data set, each distinct data value with a respective wavelength among a plurality of wavelengths. The method further includes transmitting each data item, one data item at a time, as an optical signal at the wavelength associated with the distinct data value of the data item.

16. A method of communication comprising:
-
receiving a plurality of data sets, wherein each data set comprises a respective plurality of data items; and for each data set; analyzing the data set to determine a plurality of distinct data values of the data set, associating, based on the analysis of the data set, each distinct data value of the data set with a respective wavelength among a plurality of wavelengths, and transmitting each data item of the data set, one data item at a time, as an optical signal at the wavelength associated with the distinct data value of the data item, wherein at least two data sets of the plurality of data sets include at least one data item, which is (i) of the same distinct data value and (ii) associated with a different wavelength of the plurality of wavelengths. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
