TL;DR: This manuscript discusses the motivations for jointly utilizing transmission techniques such as probabilistic shaping and digital sub-carrier multiplexing in digital coherent optical transmissions systems and describes the key-building blocks of modern high-speed DSP-based transponders working at up to 800G per wave.

Novel 16QAM carrier recovery based on blind phase search
TL;DR: A novel low complexity 16QAM feed-forward carrier recovery is provided based on blind phase search and it is discovered that 8 out of 16 states generate double minimum in the algorithm.
Patent
Method, system, and apparatus for interpolating an output of an analog-to-digital converter
TL;DR: In this paper, a system, method, and apparatus is disclosed for interpolation of an output of an analog to digital converter (ADC) to enable operation of the ADC at a sampling rate that is independent of the sampling rate for a DSP core so as to efficiently enable operation at higher date rates.
Patent
Distribution matching for probabilistic constellation shaping with an arbitrary input/output alphabet
TL;DR: In this article, an encoder circuit is provided at a transmit side of an optical fiber link that maps an input sequence of bits of fixed length k a sequence of symbols of a codeword of length n, such that the symbols of the codewords define a predetermined transmission probability distribution.
Patent
Adaptive voltage scaling based on the results of forward error correction processing
TL;DR: In this paper, a control circuit may receive an error signal and control the voltage regulator circuit to adjust, based on the error signal, the supply voltage to the data processing circuit.
