Probability Shaping FSO Transmission based on BWSIDM
To address the problem that the traditional Probabilistic Shaping (PS) scheme based on Bit-Weighted Distribution Matching (BWDM) is vulnerable to flag bit errors despite improving the anti-turbulence performance of the system
this paper proposes a probabilistically shaped 16 Quadrature Amplitude Modulatio (QAM) Free-Space Optical (FSO) transmission scheme based on Bit-Weighted and Synchronous Inversion Distribution Matching (BWSIDM).
Methods
2
At the transmitter
three flag bits are used to mark the inversion state of each bit group
and a synchronous inversion mechanism for parallel groups is introduced to reduce the Overhead (OH) of flag bits. At the receiver
the inversion state of each group is determined by the majority value of the flag bits
thereby reducing the probability of transmission errors in the flag bits.
Results
2
The performance of the PS scheme based on BWSIDM is superior to that based on BWDM under different turbulence intensities
transmission distances
and channel attenuations. For Back-to-Back (BTB) transmission of 56 Gbit/s 16QAM signals
the Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio (OSNR) of the BWSIDM scheme is improved by 0.99 and 1.05 dB compared with the BWDM scheme at Bit Error Rate (BER) of 10
-3
and 10
-4
respectively. For FSO transmission under weak turbulence conditions
the transmission distance of the BWSIDM scheme is increased by approximately 59.4 and 76.1 m relative to the BWDM scheme at BER of 10
-4
and 5×10
-5
respectively.
Conclusion
2
The PS scheme based on BWSIDM not only has stronger anti-noise performance but also effectively improves the transmission distance and anti-attenuation performance of the FSO communication system in an atmospheric turbulence environment
demonstrating the application prospects.
