An Improved EEPN Compensation Algorithm in High-speed Coherent Optical Communication
Equalization Enhanced Phase Noise (EEPN) is one of the main factors limiting the increase in transmission distance in high-speed coherent optical communication. In order to reduce the impact of EEPN
it is necessary to compare the impact of EEPN effect on transmission distance based on a 1/
f
(
f
represents frequency) phase noise model. At the same time
in order to reduce the penalty of EEPN
an improved EEPN compensation algorithm was proposed and compared through simulation.
【Methods】
2
A modeling method for the 1/
f
phase noise model was proposed through theoretical analysis. To address the lack of benefit from existing digital subcarrier-combined phase-noise compensation algorithms under large accumulated dispersion
this paper proposes a novel enhanced scheme that jointly exploits multi-subcarrier cooperation and dispersion-walk-off cancellation. Matlab simulations are employed to compare the EEPN penalties under different 1/f phase-noise models and to quantify the performance gains of the proposed improvement.
【Results】
2
Combining theoretical analysis and simulation comparison of different 1/
f
phase noise curves
the results show that the smaller the low-frequency phase noise and line width
the lower the EEPN. The improved EEPN compensation algorithm shows significant performance benefits under different dispersion levels
with performance benefits of around 0.2 and 0.3 dB at 20 000 and 30 000 ps/nm.
【Conclusion】
2
In addition to reducing the linewidth of the laser
reducing the low-frequency phase noise of the laser is an effective way to reduce the penalty of EEPN. Meanwhile
the enhanced phase-noise estimation method overcomes the ineffectiveness of existing algorithms under high dispersion
offering significant potential for extending optical-transmission reach.
