Comparison of dispersion mapping techniques with fiber nonlinearities in carrier suppressed RZ systems

In this paper, the dispersion maps are compared in the presence of fiber nonlinearities in 10 and 40 Gbps carrier suppressed return to zero (CS-RZ) systems. It is observed that the hybrid-compensation is the best dispersion mapping technique, which reduces the BER produced due to the fiber nonlinearities to the more extent than that of pre-compensation and the post-compensation. This technique increases the repeater length almost up to double than that of pre- and post-compensation. The pre-compensation shows the highest BER followed by post-compensation.. It is also observed that with increase in the input bit rate, the BER for all three compensation techniques is also increased. But the still the hybrid-compensation reduce the BER up to more extent. The BER also increases with the increase in input optical power due to nonlinear impairments on the link at high powers.     

Reduced-state maximum-likelihood detection for OFDM systems with insufficient cyclic prefix

Dispersive channels deteriorate the bit error rate (BER) performance of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with insufficient cyclic prefix (CP). In this paper, we first analyze the intensity of the intersymbol interference (ISI) and intercarrier interference (ICI). For performance enhancement, an effective maximum-likelihood (ML) detection method, named reduced-state maximum-likelihood (RSML), is proposed to detect all target subcarriers parallelly. For each target subcarrier, the proposed RSML detects a few nearby subcarriers jointly, while the remaining subcarriers are directly determined by using pre-detection values. Simulations results show that the proposed RSML achieves a significant performance improvement in terms of BER compared to the existing detection methods and is robust to various channel models and CP lengths. In particular, for certain channel conditions with insufficient CP, the detection performance of RSML is even better than conventional detection with sufficient CP because additional frequency diversity gain is obtained from joint detection at the expense of complexity.     

Cross-channel interference due to wavelength switching events in wavelength packed switched WDM networks

An important characteristic of tunable lasers, that may affect system performance, is that they can generate light at various wavelengths as they tune between different wavelength channels. These spurious components could cause severe cross-channel interference if the tunable laser is used in a WDM network. In this paper, we investigate the effect of such interfering signals, generated by up to three tunable lasers during a switching event, on the BER of a data channel transmitted on the same wavelength as the spurious components. The results show that it is vital to attenuate the output of tunable lasers during their wavelength transition in order to prevent system performance degradation.     

Characterization of transition shifts in perpendicular magnetic recording using 3D FEM

Transition shift can create serious timing problems for high density recording environments. However, it is possible to use techniques such as write precompensation to offset the timing error introduced if the magnitude and the behaviour of the transition shift are properly understood. This paper introduces a 3D finite element method (FEM) to analyse the transition shift in perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) quantitatively, allowing the combinational effects of the transition shifts from non-linear transition shift (NLTS), HTS, and neighbourhood-induced transition shift (NITS) to be examined. The consideration of all contributing factors to the final written transition position is important in determining the precompensation scheme of magnetic data recording, and 3D FEM can facilitate such quantitative analysis.

Improvement of dispersion tolerance using wavelength-interleaving and forward error correction

In this paper, we first derived the BER expression of an optical channel with chromatic dispersion impairment. The derived BER expression takes into account the influence of pulse spreading, transmitter rise/fall times, receiver Q-factor and noises. It is simpler and hence easier to use than many existing channel BER models. Then we proposed a wavelength-interleaved FEC scheme to mitigate the chromatic dispersion impairment in optical transmission system and analyzed its decoding performance. The minimum wavelength separation required for such a wavelength-interleaving FEC system to obtain the highest coding gain is also determined. Based on this design, the chromatic dispersion tolerance of the proposed system with 2-wavelength and 4-wavelength-interleaving are shown to improve by about 13% and 22%, respectively, over a non-interleaved system. In essence, wavelength-interleaving averages out the performances of a set of channels experiencing higher and lower dispersion, hence the interleaved channels have better performance than the non-interleaved channels experiencing higher dispersion, and worse performance than the non-interleaved channels experiencing lower dispersion. However, since WDM systems are typically designed based on the worst-case channel, the overall system performance is improved by wavelength-interleaving.     

Resource block Filtered-OFDM for future spectrally agile and power efficient systems

Spectrum sharing is a common paradigm in future communication systems and a spectrally agile baseband waveform with minimal out-of-band emissions is a critical component. In this paper, we propose a new multicarrier modulation technique, called resource block Filtered-OFDM (RB-F-OFDM) and present the transceiver design. This waveform can be used over channels with non-contiguous spectrum fragments and exhibits very low adjacent channel interference, which is required for cognitive radio systems with multi channel carrier aggregation capabilities. As such, regulatory based very stringent adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) and adjacent channel selectivity (ACS) requirements can be met. We show that the transceiver complexity may be reduced by utilizing an efficient polyphase implementation that is commonly used in the filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) modulation. In addition, some efficient peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction techniques can be naturally applied. The new design is backwards compatible with legacy OFDM based systems. Simulation results to evaluate the performance, including measured bit error rate (BER) in multipath channels, are provided.     

Performance characteristics and weight distribution analysis of turbo product code with Reed-Muller component codes

In this paper, we present simulation results for Reed-Muller (RM) turbo codes over AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels. We also compare the simulation results of turbo product codes and block turbo codes with RM component codes over an AWGN channel. We show that minimum distance is not important as far as the BER performance of long codes is concerned. The weight distribution of RM codes of different lengths and turbo product codes with first-order RM component codes are obtained and analyzed for their good performance. We show that the weight distribution asymptotically approaches that of random coding as the code length increases.

Spatial diversity and combination technology using amplitude and phase weighting method for phase-coherent underwater acoustic communications

The UWA channel is characterized as a time-dispersive rapidly fading channel,which in addition exhibits Doppler instabilities and limited bandwidth. To eliminate intersymbol interference caused by multipath propagation, spatial diversity equalization is the main technical means. The paper combines the passive phase conjugation and spatial processing to maximize the output array gain. It uses signal-to-noise-plus-interference to evaluate the quality of signals received at different channels. The amplitude of signal is weighted using Sigmoid function. Second order PLL can trace the phase variation caused by channel, so the signal can be accumulated in the same phase. The signals received at different channels need to be normalized. It adopts fractional-decision feedback diversity equalizer(FDFDE) and achieves diversity equalization by using different channel weighted coefficients. The simulation and lake trial data processing results show that, the optimized diversity receiving equalization algorithm can improve communication system's ability in tracking the change of underwater acoustic channel,offset the impact of multipath and noise and improve the performance of communication system.The performance of the communication receiving system is better than that of the equal gain combination. At the same time, the bit error rate(BER) reduces 1.8%.

Iterative joint data detection and channel estimation for uplink MC-CDMA systems in the presence of frequency selective channels

This paper is concerned with joint multiuser detection and multichannel estimation (JDE) for uplink multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) systems in the presence of frequency selective channels. The detection and estimation, implemented at the receiver, are based on a version of the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm and the space-alternating generalized expectation–maximization (SAGE) which are very suitable for multicarrier signal formats. The EM-JDE receiver updates the data bit sequences in parallel, while the SAGE-JDE receiver reestimates them successively. The channel parameters are updated in parallel in both schemes. Application of the EM-based algorithm to the problem of iterative data detection and channel estimation leads to a receiver structure that also incorporates a partial interference cancelation. Computer simulations show that the proposed algorithms have excellent BER end estimation performance.     

Performance of GPRML-AR system in perpendicular magnetic recording channel with thermal decay

The bit-error rate (BER) performance of the generalized partial response maximum likelihood with autoregressive (GPRML-AR) channel model system in perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) channel with thermal decay is obtained. The 128/130(0,16/8) run-length-limited (RLL) code is used as a recording code. The GPR channel consists of the PR1 channel followed by the reduction circuit of predicted noise. The BER performance is evaluated by computer simulation using a thermal decay model. The model has been obtained by using an approximate equation that represents amplitude degradation of the reproducing waveform with elapsed time based on the experimental data for CoPtCr-SiO₂ PMR media. The Viterbi detector with an AR channel model is employed. Furthermore, long-term degradation of the required SNR to achieve a BER of 10⁻⁴ with elapsed time is obtained and the performance is compared with that of PR1ML system. The results show that the poorer the thermal stability of the medium becomes, the larger the SNR gain of the GPR1ML-AR system over the PR1ML system becomes. The SNR gain also increases with elapsed time.     

Delay-Doppler domain decision feedback turbo equalization for OTFS modulation

Emerging evidence indicates that orthogonal time–frequency space (OTFS) modulation is a potential candidate modulation scheme for high mobility wireless communications. However, OTFS may experience significant inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-Doppler interference (IDI) in the receiver. In this paper, we propose a soft decision feedback turbo equalization for OTFS transmission over delay-Doppler channels to jointly combat both interferences. A novel block decision feedback equalization (BDFE) algorithm is constructed using the band feature of the channels in the delay-Doppler domain. The feedforward and feedback filters are designed by the delay-time channels coefficients. According to the designed filter, an equivalent system model is employed to allow turbo equalization. The posterior probability is established using the soft prior information and feedback filter, and then fed back to the channel decoder as external information. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in improving the bit error rate (BER) performance and combat various interference. Numerical simulations are finally provided to justify the validity of the proposed scheme in improving the bit error rate (BER) performance and combating various interference.     

Performance enhancement of the power penalty in DWDM FSO communication using DPPM and OOK modulation

This paper presents the design and performance enhancement of the power penalty (PP) in a dense wavelength division multiplexing based on free space optical communication (FSOC) link using digital pulse position modulation (DPPM) and on–off keying (OOK) modulation. Such a system has a high performance, low cost, robust and power efficient, reliable, excessive flexibility, and higher data rate for access networks. The system performance is evaluated for an 8-channel wavelength-division-multiplexing for hybrid fiber FSOC system at 2.5 Gbps on widely accepted modulation schemes under various atmospheric turbulence (AT) regimes conditions. The performance of system is introduced in terms of PP, bit-error rate (BER), transmission distance and the average received optical power. The numerical results shows that the improvement of the PP using DPPM modulation of 0.2–3.0 dB for weak turbulence (WT) regimes for BER of 10^?6 and above 20, 25 dB for strong turbulence (ST) regimes are reported for BER of 10^?6 and 10^?9, as respectively (depending on the AT level). Further, we develop of improvement the PP caused by multiple-access interference about 6.686 dB which is predicted for target BER of 10^?9 in WT and 1 dB at target BER of 10^?6 in ST when the 8 user are active on the system of optical network units. Additionally, the optical power budget and margin losses of a system are calculated with different link length. The proposed approach of DPPM merges superiority with higher enhancement of PP about 0.8 dB for BER equal 10^?9 at FSO link length l_fso?=?2000 m compared to OOK at 1 dB for WT. An improvement of 2 dB is observed using the DPPM scheme over an OOK due to capability of detect pulses under background noise conditions with increased receiver sensitivity.

DWDM VSB modulation-format optical transmission: Effects of optical filtering and electrical equalization

The transmission of 40 Gb/s wavelength multiplexed channels under vestigial single side band modulation format is transmitted over long haul optically amplified fiber systems. Bit-error-rate (BER) of 10⁻¹² or better can be achieved across all channels. Optical filters are designed with asymmetric roll-off bands. Simulations of the transmission performance, BER versus receiver sensitivity are demonstrated with wavelength channel spacing of 20–40 GHz. An optical filter, whose passband is 28 GHz and 20 dB cut-off band, performs best for 40 Gb/s bit rate due to optimum filtering and minimum noise contribution. Furthermore the single-sideband property of VSB format can assist linear equalization by electronic processing. The transmission performance is accurately evaluated based on the eye opening using a fast statistical method based on an equivalent Gaussian probability density distribution (pdf) which is derived from multiple peaks pdf of distorted eye diagram.
