Coherent 100G Nonlinear Compensation with Single-Step Digital Backpropagation
Enhanced-SSFM digital backpropagation (DBP) is experimentally demonstrated
and compared to conventional DBP. A 112 Gb/s PM-QPSK signal is transmitted over
a 3200 km dispersion-unmanaged link. The intradyne coherent receiver includes
single-step digital backpropagation based on the enhanced-SSFM algorithm. In
comparison, conventional DBP requires twenty steps to achieve the same
performance. An analysis of the computational complexity and structure of the
two algorithms reveals that the overall complexity and power consumption of DBP
are reduced by a factor of 16 with respect to a conventional implementation,
while the computation time is reduced by a factor of 20. As a result, the
proposed algorithm enables a practical and effective implementation of DBP in
real-time optical receivers, with only a moderate increase of the computational
complexity, power consumption, and latency with respect to a simple
feed-forward equalizer for dispersion compensation.Comment: This work has been presented at Optical Networks Design & Modeling

Optical Time-Frequency Packing: Principles, Design, Implementation, and Experimental Demonstration
Time-frequency packing (TFP) transmission provides the highest achievable
spectral efficiency with a constrained symbol alphabet and detector complexity.
In this work, the application of the TFP technique to fiber-optic systems is
investigated and experimentally demonstrated. The main theoretical aspects,
design guidelines, and implementation issues are discussed, focusing on those
aspects which are peculiar to TFP systems. In particular, adaptive compensation
of propagation impairments, matched filtering, and maximum a posteriori
probability detection are obtained by a combination of a butterfly equalizer
and four 8-state parallel Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) detectors. A novel
algorithm that ensures adaptive equalization, channel estimation, and a proper
distribution of tasks between the equalizer and BCJR detectors is proposed. A
set of irregular low-density parity-check codes with different rates is
designed to operate at low error rates and approach the spectral efficiency
limit achievable by TFP at different signal-to-noise ratios. An experimental
demonstration of the designed system is finally provided with five
dual-polarization QPSK-modulated optical carriers, densely packed in a 100 GHz
bandwidth, employing a recirculating loop to test the performance of the system
at different transmission distances.Comment: This paper has been accepted for publication in the IEEE/OSA Journal
