High Symbol-Rate Signal Optimization for Long-Haul Transmission Systems over 1-Tbps/λ Net-Data Rate

Abstract

We discuss the theoretical and practical aspects of high symbol-rate signal optimization techniques for realizing a >1-Tbps/λ long-haul transmission system. We also review the key technologies for transmitting the high symbol-rate signal such as modulation format design, bandwidth extension techniques, and equalization schemes.
