Abstract
A low-complexity one-step digital back-propagation (DBP) scheme is proposed to mitigate intrachannel and interchannel fiber nonlinearities in high-capacity single span transmissions. Compared with conventional coherent receivers, the only additional calculation is a low-complexity nonlinear phase noise compensation stage operated between bulk chromatic dispersion (CD) compensation and adaptive equalizer. The required number of real additions and multiplications per sample are only (6N + 2) and (2N + 6), respectively, where N is the number of compensated wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) channels. With the proposed one-step DBP, we demonstrate that the nonlinear noise can be suppressed by >60% in single channel experiments and >40% in seven-channel WDM simulations.
