We propose a blind feedforward phase noise mitigation method in the time-domain for a coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) systems. By exploiting the redundancy of the cyclic prefix (CP), the proposed scheme acquires the overall phase noise difference information during an OFDM block and attempts to mitigate the phase noise in the time domain using a linear approximation. The proposed algorithm mitigates common phase error (CPE) and inter-carrier-interference (ICI) due to phase noise simultaneously, improving the system performance, especially when decision-directed equalizers are used. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed feedforward phase noise mitigation approach in time domain.

In this paper, for the first time, the transmission performances of long-haul 100-Gb/s direct detection optical OFDM (DDO-OFDM) and coherent optical OFDM (CO-OFDM) wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems are compared by simulation. It provides specific guides for system parameter selection to get a high-performance and cost-effective OFDM WDM system. Specifically, the comparison involves three aspects: launched power is investigated to achieve better system performance; laser linewidth is numerically investigated to choose cost-effective laser; system dispersion tolerances with different laser linewidths are analyzed to further reveal the advantages and disadvantages of these two detecting methods, direct detection and coherent detection, in long-haul OFDM WDM system.

Terabit-per-second (Tb/s) transmission capacity for the next generation of long-haul communication networks can be achieved using multicarrier optical super-channel technology. In an elastic orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) super-channel transmission system, demultiplexing a portion of an entire spectrum in the form of a subband with minimum power is critically required. A major obstacle to achieving this goal is the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which is power-hungry and extremely expensive. Without a proper ADC that can work with low power, it is unrealistic to design a 100G coherent receiver suitable for a commercially deployable optical network. Discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is often seen as a primary technique for understanding partial demultiplexing, which can be attained either optically or electronically. If fairly comparable performance can be achieved with an all-optical DFT circuit, then a solution independent of data rate and modulation format can be obtained. In this paper, we investigate two distinct OFDM super-channel receiver models, based on electronic and all-optical DFT-technologies, for partial carrier demultiplexing in a multi-Tb/s transmission system. The performance comparison of the receivers is discussed in terms of bit-error-rate (BER) performance.

본 논문에서는 변형 경사하강검색법을 이용한 새로운 나선 직교진폭변조 신호성상도와 이를 위한 이진사상규칙을 제시한다. 기존 방법과는 달리 새로운 검색법은 반복설계를 위한 파라미터로 최대 반복 횟수와 함께 성상도 최적화 알고리즘을 사용하여 위상잡음에 더욱 강인한 나선 직교진폭변조 성상도를 생성한다. 또한, 제시된 이진사상기법은 신호성상도에서 동일한 경계를 공유하는 필드 수를 조정함으로써 성상도의 평균 해밍거리를 크게 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 그 결과, 제안된 나선 직교진폭변조는 매우 심한 수준의 위상잡음 환경에서도 기존 성상도에 비하여 훨씬 향상된 심볼오류성능을 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 제안된 나선 직교진폭변조는 위상잡음의 영향이 크게 나타나는 코히어런트 광통신시스템과 직교 주파수분할다중화 시스템에 유용한 변조방법인 것으로 판단된다.
