Abstract

A novel diversity combining scheme, in conjunction with the complex-valued decision-directed least mean square (CV-DD-LMS) algorithm, is evaluated, and a real-time experimental validation is presented. This proposed scheme employs the CV-DD-LMS algorithm to concurrently perform beam combination and carrier phase recovery (CPR), thereby effectively reducing the overall complexity of digital signal processing. Furthermore, in the numerical simulation, under a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a scheme utilizing the CV-DD-LMS algorithm effectively avoids cycle slips (CS) and outperforms schemes employing independent CPR modules. We experimentally validate this novel scheme by implementing it on an FPGA in a real-time 2.5Gb/s QPSK diversity-receiving system with three inputs. The back-to-back sensitivity is assessed using static received optical power, while the dynamic performance is evaluated by employing variable optical attenuators (VOAs) to simulate a power fluctuation at a frequency of 100kHz. The result proves that the implementation of the CV-DD-LMS algorithm yields stable performance while effectively reducing computational complexity.
