Abstract
Transceiver sampling frequency offset (SFO) due to imperfections is one of the major factors restricting the transmission performance of the optical fiber coherent systems, especially when signals with high baud rate and therefore requiring higher sampling frequency of sampling devices like DACs or ADCs. In single-carrier signals transmission system, although adaptive clock recovery methods like Gardener or Godard method can compensate sampling error, when SFO is large enough so that one-frame length samples can accumulate to approximate one sample or above, the clock recovery will directly fail due to an extra sample is added or missed. The research of this issue for single-carrier signal is still rare. In this paper, we propose to use a digital interpolation method for single-carrier QAM signals for SFO compensation. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by a 32-GBaud 16-QAM dual-polarization 80-km SSMF optical coherent transmission experiment. The experimental results show that with proposed method, up to at least 1000-ppm SFO can be almost compensated to the bit error rate (BER) level as if without SFO. Besides, when using the proposed method, the required optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) can be reduced by about 7 dB to achieve the BER level without SFO.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
