We propose a digital-carrier Kramers-Kronig (DC-KK) scheme based high-speed multimode fiber short-reach optical interconnect system with fundamental mode transmission. After optimization of the parameters, including the roll-off factor of the root-raised-cosine (RRC) filter, and the guard interval (GI) between signal and carrier tone, as well as the carrier signal power ratio (CSPR), 200-Gb/s 32-quadrature amplitude modulation (32QAM) signal transmission over 12-km OM2 fiber has been experimentally demonstrated with a bit error ratio (BER) below the soft-decision forward error correction (SD-FEC) threshold of 4 × 10-2. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest experimental record of single lambda bitrate-distance-product (SLBDP) achieved by direct-detection (DD)-based transmission over a standard multimode fiber (MMF). The proposed scheme has potential to improve the system performance without replacing massive deployed legacy MMFs for future large-capacity data center interconnects (DCIs).
