We experimentally demonstrate a tunable and reconfigurable optical discrete Fourier transform (DFT) to demultiplex orthogonal-frequency-division-multiplexed subcarriers with 2/3/4 subcarriers at 20/40 GHz frequency spacing. An average power penalty of ∼5 dB (∼3.5) at bit error ratio of 10−9 is achieved for 4×20 Gbit/s (4×10 Gbit/s) OFDM signal with 20 GHz frequency spacing.
