...A FTER growing for over two decades by about three orders of magnitude, the capacity of single-mode fibers (SMFs) is rapidly approaching the capacity limits imposed by the combination of Shannon’s information theory and nonlinear fiber effects [1]....

...As pointed out in [70], a lower-bound to the capacity of an optical channel can be obtained by estimating the mutual information I(X,Y ) between the Tx-side input alphabet X and the Rx-side output alphabet Y , assuming a memoryless model for the channel....

...The reasons and proof why this is a lower bound can be found in [70], Section III-F....

...Only in one case we will assume single-channel BP (namely, for a Gaussian constellation at the Nyquist limit) to show that our results match those of [70]....

...Assuming that the demonstrated spectral efficiency of 6 bit/s/Hz can be maintained over the entire bandwidth of the Kerr comb, we envision chip-scale transmitters providing aggregate data rates beyond 100 Tbit/s, only limited by nonlinear effects in the single-mode silica fibres used for transmission [37]....
