TLDR
In this article, three different carrier phase estimation approaches for coherent optical systems based on multi-subcarrier modulation are compared in terms of both performance and complexity, while using a single subcarrier for phase estimation yields a complexity reduction without any substantial performance loss with respect to performing a separate phase estimation on all SCs.
Abstract
In this letter, we analyze three different carrier phase estimation approaches for coherent optical systems based on multi-subcarrier modulation, comparing them in terms of both performance and complexity. Averaging the estimated values on the subcarriers (SCs) significantly increases the laser linewidth tolerance at the expense of additional complexity, while using a single SC for carrier phase estimation yields a complexity reduction without any substantial performance loss with respect to performing a separate phase estimation on all SCs

Nonlinear mitigation on subcarrier-multiplexed PM-16QAM optical systems.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in the considered experimental scenario, the gain provided by digital backpropagation (DBP) over single-carrier (SC) transmission is similar to that achieved by SRO over MSC transmission and that the SRO phenomenon can be weakened after self-channel interference (SCI) removal through DBP.

Phase Noise Compensation for Nonlinearity-Tolerant Digital Subcarrier Systems With High-Order QAM

TL;DR: A low-complexity algorithm is proposed for joint subcarrier phase noise processing, which is scalable in the number of subcarriers and recovers almost entirely the fundamental SNR penalty with respect to single-carrier systems operating at the same net data-rate.

Tracking reference phase with a Kalman filter in continuous-variable quantum key distribution.

TL;DR: In simulations, the performances involving of the estimation accuracy, the actual excess noise and the secret key rate are compared between with four different phase estimation methods, and the results show that the vector Kalman filter is superior to the other methods, even though under a serious phase noise and a large optical frequency difference.

Joint Carrier-Phase Estimation for Digital Subcarrier Multiplexing Systems With Symbol-Rate Optimization

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gains can be achieved through joint-subcarrier CPE processing in shorter-reach links, while this gain tends to progressively reduce with increasing propagation distance, down to about 0.5 dB gain after 3000 km propagation.

Enhanced Phase Estimation for Long-Haul Multi-Carrier Systems Using a Dual-Reference Subcarrier Approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a joint-subcarrier carrier phase estimation (CPE) method based on a dual-reference subcarrier (DRS) approach is described and numerically assessed, which exploits the frequency-dependent walkoff effect imposed by chromatic dispersion (CD) to enable the separation of phase noise processes incurred by the transmitter and local oscillator lasers.

Nonlinear estimation of PSK-modulated carrier phase with application to burst digital transmission

TL;DR: A class of nonlinear estimation algorithms is described to estimate the unknown phase of a carrier which is fully modulated by m -ary PSK modulation, and the effect of quantization and finite read-only-memory implementation of the nonlinearity are determined by computer simulation.

Optimizing the subcarrier granularity of coherent optical communications systems.

TL;DR: The findings of the paper suggest that the maximum capacity of nonlinear dispersive optical links can only be achieved by using multiple subcarriers carrying a few Gbaud each, and not by high symbol rate systems.
