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.

Band-ESS: Streaming Enumerative Coding with Applications to Probabilistic Shaping

TL;DR: This work studies the implementation of band-trellis enumerative sphere shaping, and shows that a shift-based B-ESS can be implemented for arbitrarily long blocklengths without incurring an increase in complexity, and can operate in a streaming mode similar to convolutional coding.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors measured the nonlinear noise vs the chromatic dispersion pre-compensation in an unrepeatered span, for shaped and unshaped constellations, and observed a large difference at low dispersion, and convergence to similar values at large precompensation.

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.
