Electronically Subcarrier Multiplexed PM-32QAM with Optimized FEC Overhead
01 June 2017
Variable-rate coding is essential for electronic subcarrier multiplexed systems. We study PM-32QAM with up to 16 subcarriers per wavelength and demonstrate that at a net bitrate of 350 Gbit/s, the distance can be increased by 300 km in WDM transmission.
