Abstract
We design a new kind of fractional Fourier transform superimposed training sequence (TS) to simultaneously estimate linear distortions including chromatic dispersion (CD), timing offset (TO), and frequency offset (FO), etc. Without sacrificing additional spectrum efficiency, the scheme can reduce the computational complexity sharply compared to a regular estimation method. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is verified by simulations of 28 GBaud dual polarization quadrature phase-shift keying (DP-QSPK) and 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (DP-16 QAM) system. Simulation results show that the superimposed TS has negligible negative effects on the transmission performance considering 7% forward error correction while the TO, FO, and rough CD estimation perform well after a long distance transmission. The max TO estimation (TOE) errors are, respectively, eight samples and 12 samples for QPSK and 16 QAM, and the max FO estimation errors are, respectively, 5.7 and 3.6 MHz for QPSK and 16 QAM. The rough CD estimation (CDE) error is below 946 ps/nm. The TOE and rough CDE separately decrease the complexity of frame synchronization and CDE. In total, the computation complexity of the estimations decreases by 91.8% compared to a regular blind estimation method.
