Abstract:
A system and method including a parity bit encoder for encoding each n bits of data to be transmitted with a parity check bit to produce blocks of n+1 bits (n information bits plus one parity bit associated with the n information bits). Each of the blocks of n+1 bits are Gray mapped to a plurality of associated QAM symbols that are modulated onto an optical wavelength and transmitted to a receiver. A maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoder is used at the receiver to correct for cycle slip. Phase errors of 180 degrees may be detected by independently encoding odd and even bits prior to Gray mapping, and identifying errors in decoding odd numbered bits at the receiver.

Abstract:
A system and method including multi-dimensional coded modulation wherein symbols within successive blocks of symbols are mapped using at least two different constellations to differentiate the symbols from each other. At least one data bit is encoded by an order of the symbols within each block of symbols. The receiver decodes the data by decoding at least one bit from the order of the symbols mapped with the first and second constellations.

Abstract:
This spatial division multiplexing (SDM) in power-limited optical communication systems. In general, an SDM optical transmission system may be configured to increase data capacity over the data capacity of a non-SDM optical transmission system while maintaining power consumption at or below that of the existing non-SDM optical transmission system. To realize such an improvement in performance without increasing power consumption, an example SDM optical transmission may be constructed by reducing system bandwidth, reducing and/or altering equipment for filtering, reducing optical amplifier spacing, reducing operational amplifier power consumption, etc. In this manner, increased data transmission performance may be realized even where available power may be strictly limited.

Abstract:
An optical subcarrier multiplex system. An input data signal is jointly coded with at least one forward error correction (FEC) code before symbol mapping and before subcarrier modulation. Joint FEC coding mitigates non-uniform subcarrier performance.
Abstract:
A system and method involving a coded modulation scheme whereby different spectral efficiencies can be achieved for different transmitters in a WDM system using the same M2-QAM modulation format. A maximum achievable spectral efficiency for the transmitters may be selected and a spectral efficiency step-size of the maximum achievable spectral efficiency may be specified. The spectral efficiency for any transmitter in the system may be individually selected by reducing its spectral efficiency from the maximum achievable spectral efficiencies by a selected number of steps corresponding to the step size.
Abstract:
A system and method including a parity bit encoder for encoding each n−3 bits of data to be transmitted with three parity check bits to produce blocks of n bits (n−3 information bits plus three parity bits associated with the n information bits). Each of the blocks of n bits are Gray mapped to three QAM symbols that are modulated onto an optical wavelength and transmitted to a receiver. A maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoder is used at the receiver to correct for cycle slip.

Abstract:
A system and method including a parity bit encoder for encoding bits of data to be transmitted with first and second parity check bits to produce successive block of bits. Each of the blocks of bits are Gray mapped to a plurality of associated QAM symbols that are modulated onto an optical wavelength and transmitted to a receiver. A de-mapper corrects for 90 degree and 180 degree cycle slip using parity indicated by the first and second parity bits.
