Comparison of Asymmetrically Clipped Optical OFDM and DC-Biased Optical OFDM in AWGN

TLDR
ACO-OFDM requires less optical power for a given data rate than DCO- OFDM for all but the largest constellations and is better suited to adaptive systems as the same structure is optimum for all constellation.
Abstract
We present theoretical and simulation results for the performance of asymmetrically-clipped optical OFDM (ACO-OFDM) and DC-biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM) in AWGN for intensity-modulated direct-detection systems. Constellations from 4 QAM to 1024 QAM are considered. For DCO-OFDM, the optimum bias depends on the constellation size which limits its performance in adaptive systems. ACO-OFDM requires less optical power for a given data rate than DCO-OFDM for all but the largest constellations and is better suited to adaptive systems as the same structure is optimum for all constellations.
