Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and single-carrier (SC) data transmission are compared as potential candidates for the next generation coherent long-haul 100 Gbps optical communication systems. The comparison takes into account impairments either general or mainly related to coherent detection, e.g., group velocity dispersion (GVD), polarization mode dispersion (PMD), non-linear effects, phase noise due to transmit and receive lasers, uncompensated frequency offset, other synchronization aspects, overall complexity, power and spectral efficiency, technological constraints.
Is optical OFDM a viable alternative to single-carrier transmission for future long-haul optical systems?

Abstract
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and single-carrier (SC) data transmission are compared as potential candidates for the next generation coherent long-haul 100 Gbps optical communication systems. The comparison takes into account impairments either general or mainly related to coherent detection, e.g., group velocity dispersion (GVD), polarization mode dispersion (PMD), non-linear effects, phase noise due to transmit and receive lasers, uncompensated frequency offset, other synchronization aspects, overall complexity, power and spectral efficiency, technological constraints.File in questo prodotto:
