Exponentially-Weighted Energy Dispersion Index for the Nonlinear Interference Analysis of Finite-Blocklength Shaping
arXiv:2106.04694
Abstract
A metric called exponentially-weighted energy dispersion index (EEDI) is proposed to explain the blocklength-dependent effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in probabilistically shaped fiber-optic systems. EEDI is better than energy dispersion index (EDI) at capturing the dependency of the effective SNR on the blocklength for long-distance transmission.
