Abstract
Digital coherent transmission features a very large transmission bandwidth and has played a main role in core optical transmission networks. With the progress of semiconductor technologies, practical coherent transceivers with rates over 100 Gbaud are becoming feasible. With such advances, the transceiver components must have lower power consumption and lower costs, and it becomes important to know how each component contributes to the overall transmission performance. Here, to decompose the effects of noise factors in high-baud-rate DP-16QAM transmissions, we used the theoretical relationship between the bit error rate (BER) and noise-to-signal ratio (NSR) and performed linear analyses. The NSR could be decomposed into individual noise contributions according to dependences on the inverse signal and local photocurrents. The obtained parameters were shown to be useful for predicting required optical signal-to-noise ratio (ROSNR) characteristics.
