METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING FIBER NONLINEARITY COMPENSATION FOR OPTICAL 16QAM

摘要

A method for reducing link fiber nonlinearities executed by a processor. The method includes decomposing a high order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) input into a plurality of sub-components. The method includes applying a plurality of logical operations to the plurality of sub-components. The method includes determining a non-linear compensation term based on the applying the plurality of logical operations to the plurality of sub-components.
