TLDR
A transmission system with adjustable data rate for single-carrier coherent optical transmission is proposed, which enables high-speed transmission close to the Shannon limit, and it is experimentally demonstrated that the optical transmission of probabilistically shaped 64-QAM signals outperforms the transmission reach of regular 16- QAM and regular 64-ZAM signals.Abstract:
A transmission system with adjustable data rate for single-carrier coherent optical transmission is proposed, which enables high-speed transmission close to the Shannon limit. The proposed system is based on probabilistically shaped 64-QAM modulation formats. Adjustable shaping is combined with a fixed-QAM modulation and a fixed forward-error correction code to realize a system with adjustable net data rate that can operate over a large reach range. At the transmitter, an adjustable distribution matcher performs the shaping. At the receiver, an inverse distribution matcher is used. Probabilistic shaping is implemented into a coherent optical transmission system for 64-QAM at 32 Gbaud to realize adjustable operation modes for net data rates ranging from 200 to 300 Gb/s. It is experimentally demonstrated that the optical transmission of probabilistically shaped 64-QAM signals outperforms the transmission reach of regular 16-QAM and regular 64-QAM signals by more than 40% in the transmission reach.read more

Akira Naka,Mamoru Komatsu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a bit-wise autoencoder (AE) was used to design a four-dimensional modulation constellation diagram in two-dimensional projection, and the receiver sensitivities were shown to be equivalent to or better than those of the conventional 4-D and 2-D formats with the same transmission capacity.

On Probabilistic Shaping of Quadrature Amplitude Modulation for the Nonlinear Fiber Channel
TL;DR: The results show that, for a fixed average optical launch power, a shaping gain is obtained for the noise contributions from fiber amplifiers and modulation-independent nonlinear interference (NLI), whereas shaping simultaneously causes a penalty as it leads to an increased NLI.

Threshold Saturation via Spatial Coupling: Why Convolutional LDPC Ensembles Perform So Well over the BEC
TL;DR: The fundamental mechanism that explains why “convolutional-like” or “spatially coupled” codes perform so well is described, and it is conjecture that for a large range of graphical systems a similar saturation of the “dynamical” threshold occurs once individual components are coupled sufficiently strongly.
