Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is a modulation technology that has
been widely adopted in many new and emerging broadband wireless and wireline …

Nyquist sinc-pulse shaping provides spectral efficiencies close to the theoretical limit. In this
paper we discuss the analogy to optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing and …

The continual growth of Internet traffic necessitates a high-capacity transmission platform
and also highlights the importance of a multi-granularity transport network due to the flexible …

Fast advancing silicon technology underpinned by Moore's law is creating a major
transformation in optical fiber communications. The recent upsurge of interests in optical …

A novel low-complexity coherent receiver solution is presented to improve spectral efficiency
in wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) systems. It is based on the receiver-side partial …

Besides the long-haul optical networks covering over thousands of kilometers for backbone
transmission, short reach optical networks (SR-ONs) are widely deployed in metro-area for …

A 448 Gbit/s single-carrier dual-polarization 16-ary quadrature-amplitude-modulation (DP
16-QAM) signal and a 1.206 Tbit/s three-carrier DP 16-QAM signal are demonstrated using …

In this paper, we use numerical simulations to show that the symbol rate has a significant
effect on the nonlinearity-limited performance of coherent optical communication systems …

As traffic demands continue to grow, supporting data rates beyond 100 Gb/s will be required
to increase optical channel capacity and support higher-rate client interfaces. Advanced …
