Modified QPSK Partition Algorithm Based on MAP Estimation for Probabilistically-Shaped 16-QAM

Probabilistic shaping (PS) is investigated as a potential technique to approach the Shannon limit. However, it has been proved that conventional carrier phase recovery (CPR) algorithm designed for uniform distribution may have extra penalty in PS systems. In this paper, we find that the performance of QPSK partition algorithm is degenerated when PS is implemented. To solve this issue, a modified QPSK partition algorithm that jointly optimizes the amplitude decision threshold and filter weight is proposed, where the optimization of decision threshold is based on maximum a posterior probability (MAP) estimation. Different from the conventional decision methods which commonly use Euclidean distance metric, the MAP-based decision introduces the statistical characteristics of the received signals to obtain an accurate amplitude partition. In addition, the filter weight is optimized for different decision thresholds to enhance the tolerance of ASE-induced phase noise. We verify the feasibility of the proposed algorithm in a 56 GBaud PS 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (16-QAM) system. The proposed algorithm reduces the error of phase noise estimation by nearly half. Compared with conventional QPSK partition, the proposed algorithm could narrow the gap with theoretical mutual information (MI) by more than 0.1 bit/symbol. The channel capacity is increased by 4.2%, 4.3% and 3.6% with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from 8 dB to 10 dB respectively. These observations show that the proposed algorithm is a promising method to relieve the penalty of QPSK partition algorithm in PS systems.

An Improved Diversity Combining Receiver for Layered ACO-FOFDM in IM/DD Systems

In this paper, an improved receiver based on diversity combining is proposed to improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of layered asymmetrically clipped optical fast orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ACO-FOFDM) for intensity-modulated and direct-detected (IM/DD) optical transmission systems. Layered ACO-FOFDM can compensate the weakness of traditional ACO-FOFDM in low spectral efficiency, the utilization of discrete cosine transform in FOFDM system instead of fast Fourier transform in OFDM system can reduce the computational complexity without any influence on BER performance. The BER performances of layered ACO-FOFDM system with improved receiver based on diversity combining and DC-offset FOFDM (DCO-FOFDM) system with optimal DC-bias are compared at the same spectral efficiency. Simulation results show that under different optical bit energy to noise power ratios, layered ACO-FOFDM system with improved receiver has 2.86dB, 5.26dB and 5.72dB BER performance advantages at forward error correction limit over DCO-FOFDM system when the spectral efficiencies are 1 bit/s/Hz, 2 bits/s/Hz and 3 bits/s/Hz, respectively. Layered ACO-FOFDM system with improved receiver based on diversity combining is suitable for application in the adaptive IM/DD systems with zero DC-bias.

Capacity limit for faster-than-Nyquist non-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing signaling

Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signal achieves higher spectral efficiency and capacity compared to Nyquist signal due to its smaller pulse interval or narrower subcarrier spacing. Shannon limit typically defines the upper-limit capacity of Nyquist signal. To the best of our knowledge, the mathematical expression for the capacity limit of FTN non-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (NOFDM) signal is first demonstrated in this paper. The mathematical expression shows that FTN NOFDM signal has the potential to achieve a higher capacity limit compared to Nyquist signal. In this paper, we demonstrate the principle of FTN NOFDM by taking fractional cosine transform-based NOFDM (FrCT-NOFDM) for instance. FrCT-NOFDM is first proposed and implemented by both simulation and experiment. When the bandwidth compression factor $α$ is set to $0.8$ in FrCT-NOFDM, the subcarrier spacing is equal to $40\%$ of the symbol rate per subcarrier, thus the transmission rate is about $25\%$ faster than Nyquist rate. FTN NOFDM with higher capacity would be promising in the future communication systems, especially in the bandwidth-limited applications.
