Abstract

Probabilistic constellation shaping (PCS) has attracted a lot of attention for increasing the spectral efficiency (SE) in coherent fiber optic communication. Unfortunately, increasing the transmit power could increase non-linear self- and cross-phase modulations due to the Kerr effect in fiber optic. Owing to smaller peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), higher angular distance between constellation points, and lower amplitude levels, amplitude and phase shift keying (APSK) can be more robust to phase noise than quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). A new PCS scheme is proposed for the standard APSK 16 and 64 DVB-S2/S2X modulation formats. Simulation results in additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) channels show a close bit error rate performance for the proposed system compared to probabilistically-shaped QAM.
