...However,
what if we assume that the action of the modulator is to 'wind up'
each subcarrier mode of the beam into a set of angular momentum
states which are disjoint from one subcarrier to the next simply on
the basis of the frequency of the subcarrier...

If they need to do that to send a signal down a fiber, then they would need to do something similar with the electrons that they are sending over an electrical wire from the mixer to the electro-optical modulator!

It's very hard to see how the electro-optical modulation process will impart a modal quality that depends on the carrier frequency. It all looks like a possibility but whatever they are doing, they don't speak with the clarity and freedom of speech that comes with a good patent position.
