摘要:
A method of transmitting a data signal using an optical transmitter of an optical communications system. The optical transmitter is configured to modulate an optical carrier in successive signalling intervals to generate an optical signal. A modulation scheme is provided which comprises a multi-dimensional symbol constellation. The modulation scheme is designed such that an average degree of polarization of a modulated optical signal output from the optical transmitter has a first value when averaged across a first signalling interval, and has a second value when averaged across more than one and fewer than 100 signalling intervals. The second value is less than 10 percent of the first value. During run-time, an encoder of the optical transmitter encoding a data signal to be transmitted as symbols of the constellation, and a modulator of the optical transmitter modulating available dimensions of the optical carrier in accordance with the symbols.

A receiver of an optical communications system includes a set of two or more analog-to digital A/D converters, a respective transform block connected to an output of each A/D converter, and a summation block. Each A/D converter samples a respective low-bandwidth analog signal comprising a respective portion of a high-bandwidth data signal. Each transform block calculates a set of spectral components of the respective low-bandwidth analog signal. The summation block combines respective spectral components calculated by each transform block to construct spectral terms of a combined signal having a spectrum corresponding to that of the high-bandwidth data signal.

A method of transmitting a data signal using an optical transmitter of an optical communications system. A first encoder processes an N-bit input vector in accordance with a first mapping to generate a corresponding M-bit data stream. A Forward Error Correction encoder processes the M-bit data stream in accordance with a predetermined FEC encoding scheme to generate an encoded signal. A constellation mapper maps the encoded signal to symbol values in accordance with a predetermined modulation scheme to generate a corresponding symbol stream. A modulator modulates a carrier light in accordance with the encoded symbol stream to generate an optical signal for transmission through the optical communications system. The first mapping can be adjusted to maximize performance of the optical communications system.

A method of data symbol recovery. An optical signal is modulated by a transmitter using a modulation scheme comprising a symbol constellation having a predetermined asymmetry and detected at a receiver. Phase error estimates corresponding to data symbol estimates detected from the received optical signal are calculated. A phase rotation is calculated based on the phase error estimates, using a filter function, and the phase rotation applied to at least one data symbol estimate to generate a corresponding rotated symbol estimate. The phase error estimates model the asymmetry of the symbol constellation, such that the computed phase rotation can compensate phase noise that is greater than one decision region of the symbol constellation.
