Abstract:
Systems and methods for data transport in optical communications systems, including a transmitter for encoding a received information sequence by constructing an outer and inner quasi cyclic-low-density parity check (QC-LDPC) code. The encoding includes dividing the received information sequence into a plurality of messages of equal length, encoding each of the messages into a codeword to generate a plurality of outer codewords, cascading the plurality of outer codewords to generate a bit sequence, and executing inner encoding to encode each of the plurality of outer codewords into codewords in QC-LDPC inner code. A receiver decodes a received data stream based on the QC-LDPC inner code using two-phase decoding including iteratively performing at least one of inner/outer and outer/inner decoding until a threshold condition is reached.
Abstract:
At a receiver side, to enhance the performance of concatenated LDPC and TCM coding, an iterative decoding between TCM decoder and LDPC decoder enables improvement in the reliability of received LLRs of each symbol after each iteration. A SOVA output of the TCM is used for LDPC decoding, and then the updated LLRs from LDPC decoder are further looped back to the TCM decoder for the next iteration. In such a manner, the decoding performance could be significantly improved after just several iterations.
Abstract:
A wavelength division multiplexing optical transmission apparatus includes a plurality of polarization multiplexing optical modulation means, polarization-maintaining optical multiplexing means, and delay adjustment means. The polarization multiplexing optical modulation means generate a plurality of polarization multiplexed optical modulation signals having different wavelengths. The polarization-maintaining optical multiplexing means multiplexes the wavelengths of the polarization multiplexed optical modulation signals to generate a wavelength multiplexed optical signal (WDM). The delay adjustment means adjusts a delay such that light intensities of polarization multiplexed optical modulation signals having adjacent wavelengths in the wavelength multiplexed optical signal (WDM) vary inversely with respect to each other.

A method implemented in a transmission apparatus used in an optical fiber communications system for a polarization switched differential quaternary phase-shift keying (DQPSK) signal is disclosed. The method comprises splitting data into two or more data streams, inputting said two or more data streams to 1-bit DQPSK precoders to perform 1-bit DQPSK precoding, and multiplexing inphase outputs of the 1-bit DQPSK precoders to generate a first output; and multiplexing quadrature outputs of the 1-bit DQPSK precoders to generate a second output. Other methods, apparatuses, and systems also are disclosed.
Abstract:
The de-multiplexing unit 2 de-multiplexes an inputted optical wavelength multiplexed signal into a first optical wavelength multiplexed signal having a first wavelength band and a second optical wavelength multiplexed signal having a second wavelength band in a longer wavelength band than the first wavelength band. The first optical amplifier 3 amplifies the first optical wavelength multiplexed signal. The second optical amplifier 4 amplifies the second optical wavelength multiplexed signal. The multiplexer 5 multiplexes the amplified first optical wavelength multiplexed signal and the amplified second optical wavelength multiplexed signal and outputs the multiplexed signal to a Raman amplifier 6. The first optical amplifier 3 adjusts the amplification rate of the first optical wavelength multiplexed signal so that the intensity of light in the second wavelength band is compensated for by the Raman effect in the Raman amplifier 6.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for data transport in an optical communications system, including generating a pairwise optimized (PO) multi-dimensional signal constellation in a single stage. The PO multi-dimensional signal constellation is generated by selecting a pair of symbols from a received constellation with M symbols, defining and minimizing an objective function with one or more constraints to optimize the selected pair of symbols, and iteratively selecting and optimizing one or more different pairs of symbols from the received constellation until a threshold condition is reached. Neighbor symbols from the generated PO multi-dimensional signal constellation in each polarization are clustered to formulate a clustered PO multi-dimensional signal constellation, and data is modulated and transmitted in accordance with the clustered PO multi-dimensional signal constellation.
