30% Reach Increase via Low-complexity Hybrid HD/SD FEC and Nonlinearity-tolerant 4D Modulation

Gabriele Liga, Bin Chen, Sjoerd van der Heide +4

Current optical coherent transponders technology is driving data rates towards 1 Tb/s/λand beyond. This trend requires both high-performance coded modulation schemes and efficient…

First Experimental Demonstration of Probabilistic Enumerative Sphere Shaping in Optical Fiber Communications

Sebastiaan Goossens, Sjoerd van der Heide, Menno van den Hout +8

We transmit probabilistic enumerative sphere shaped dual-polarization 64-QAM at 350Gbit/s/channel over 1610km SSMF using a short blocklength of 200. A reach increase of 15% over co…

Four-dimensional polarization-ring-switching for dispersion-managed optical fibre systems

Bin Chen, Chigo Okonkwo, Hartmut Hafermann +1

The recently introduced 4D 64-ary polarisation-ring-switching format is investigated in dispersion-managed systems. Numerical simulations show a reach increase of with respe…

Enumerative Sphere Shaping for Rate Adaptation and Reach Increase in WDM Transmission Systems

Abdelkerim Amari, Sebastiaan Goossens, Yunus Can Gultekin +6

The performance of enumerative sphere shaping (ESS), constant composition distribution matching (CCDM), and uniform signalling are compared at the same forward error correction rat…

Experimental Demonstration of Eight-dimensional Modulation Formats for Long-haul Optical Transmission

Sjoerd van der Heide, Bin Chen, Menno van den Hout +4

Two novel 5.5 bit/4D modulation formats are experimentally demonstrated to transmit over 9680 km of SSMF. A reach increase of 29.4% over the 6 bit/4D PM-8QAM is shown. Furthermore,…

11,700 km Transmission at 4.8 bit/4D-sym via Four-dimensional Geometrically-shaped Polarization-Ring-Switching Modulation

Sjoerd van der Heide, Bin Chen, Menno van den Hout +5

Using a novel geometrically-shaped four-dimensional modulation format, we transmitted 11x200 Gbit/s DWDM at 4.8 bit/4D-sym over 7,925 km and 11,700 km using EDFA-only and hybrid am…

Eight-dimensional Polarization-ring-switching Modulation Formats

Bin Chen, Chigo Okonkwo, Hartmut Hafermann +1

We propose two 8-dimensional (8D) modulation formats (8D-2048PRS-T1 and 8D-2048PRS-T2) with a spectral efficiency of 5.5 bit/4D-sym, where the 8 dimensions are obtained from two ti…

Polarization-ring-switching for nonlinearity-tolerant geometrically-shaped four-dimensional formats maximizing generalized mutual information

Bin Chen, Chigo Okonkwo, Hartmut Hafermann +1

In this paper, a new four-dimensional 64-ary polarization ring switching (4D-64PRS) modulation format with a spectral efficiency of 6 bit/4D-sym is introduced. The format is design…
