Summary:Methods and systems for a bi-directional receiver for standard single-mode fiber based on grating couplers may include, in an integrated circuit, a multi-wavelength grating coupler, and first and second optical sources coupled to the integrated circuit: receiving first and second source optical signals at in the integrated circuit using the first and second optical sources, where the second wavelength is different from the first wavelength, receiving a first optical data signal at the first wavelength from an optical fiber coupled to the multi-wavelength grating coupler, and receiving a second optical data signal at the second wavelength from the optical fiber. Third and fourth optical data signals at the first and second wavelengths may be communicated out of the optoelectronic transceiver via the multi-wavelength grating coupler.
