Unitary control of multiport wave transmission
This work develops a theoretical framework for optimizing wave transmission through complex media using unitary control, which allows for simultaneous manipulation of a set of orthogonal waves. They use this theory to optimize the total power transmission and crosstalk through generic multimode scattering media. Their theorems are illustrated through simple examples and first-principles numerical simulations.
