We experimentally investigate 28-GBd (84-Gb/s) and 37.3-GBd (112-Gb/s) polarization-switched quadrature phase-shift keying (PS-QPSK) signals. In single-channel transmission experiments over up to 12500 km ultra large effective area fiber, we compare their performance to that of polarization-division multiplexing quadrature phase-shift keying (PDM-QPSK) signals at the same bit rates. The experimental results show that PS-QPSK not only benefits from its better sensitivity but also offers an increased tolerance to intra-channel nonlinearities.
我们对28GBd(84Gb/s)和37.3GBd(112Gb/s)的偏振切换正交相移键控(PS-QPSK)信号进行了实验研究。在长达12500公里的超大有效面积光纤的单通道传输实验中,我们将它们的性能与相同比特率下的偏振复用正交相移键控(PDM-QPSK)信号的性能进行了比较。实验结果表明,PS-QPSK不仅受益于其更好的灵敏度,而且对通道内非线性的容忍度也有所提高。
