Capacity Bounds for Optical WDM Channels with Peak Power Constraints
Viswanathan Ramachandran, Gabriele Liga, Astrid Barreiro +1
We investigate optical WDM transmission from the standpoint of an information-theoretic interference channel. Achievable rates that outperform treating interference as noise are pr…
Model-aided Geometrical Shaping of Dual-polarization 4D Formats in the Nonlinear Fiber Channel
Gabriele Liga, Bin Chen, Alex Alvarado
The geometry of dual-polarization four-dimensional constellations is optimized in the optical fiber channel using a recent nonlinear interference model. A 0.27 bit/4D rate gain and…
Exponentially-Weighted Energy Dispersion Index for the Nonlinear Interference Analysis of Finite-Blocklength Shaping
Kaiquan Wu, Gabriele Liga, Yunus Can Gültekin +1
A metric called exponentially-weighted energy dispersion index (EEDI) is proposed to explain the blocklength-dependent effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in probabilistically sh…
On Parameter Optimization and Reach Enhancement for the Improved Soft-Aided Staircase Decoder
Yi Lei, Bin Chen, Gabriele Liga +1
The so-called improved soft-aided bit-marking algorithm was recently proposed for staircase codes (SCCs) in the context of fiber optical communications. This algorithm is known as…
A Capacity Region Outer Bound for the Two-User Perturbative Nonlinear Fiber Optical Channel
Viswanathan Ramachandran, Astrid Barreiro, Gabriele Liga +1
We study a nonlinear fiber optical channel impaired by cross-phase modulation and dispersion from the viewpoint of an interference channel. We characterize an outer bound on the ca…
A Soft-Aided Staircase Decoder Using Three-Level Channel Reliabilities
Yi Lei, Bin Chen, Gabriele Liga +3
The soft-aided bit-marking (SABM) algorithm is based on the idea of marking bits as highly reliable bits (HRBs), highly unreliable bits (HUBs), and uncertain bits to improve the pe…
