Abstract

The performance of rate-0.8 4-ary LDPC code has been studied in a 50 GHz-spaced 40 Gb/s DWDM system with PDM-QPSK modulation. The net effective coding gain of 10 dB is obtained at BER of 10(-6). With the aid of time-interleaving polarization multiplexing and MAP detection, 10,560 km transmission over legacy dispersion managed fiber is achieved without any countable errors. The proposed nonbinary quasi-cyclic LDPC code achieves an uncoded BER threshold at 4×10(-2). Potential issues like phase ambiguity and coding length are also discussed when implementing LDPC in current coherent optical systems.

摘要

已经在采用偏振复用正交相移键控（PDM-QPSK）调制的50GHz间隔40Gb/s密集波分复用（DWDM）系统中研究了速率为0.8的四进制低密度奇偶校验（LDPC）码的性能。在误码率为10^(-6)时获得了10dB的净有效编码增益。借助时间交织偏振复用和最大后验概率（MAP）检测，在传统色散管理光纤上实现了10560km的传输且无任何可计数的错误。所提出的非二进制准循环LDPC码在4×10^(-2)时实现了未编码误码率阈值。在当前相干光系统中实现LDPC时，还讨论了诸如相位模糊和编码长度等潜在问题。
