Experimental Verification of Rate Flexibility and Probabilistic Shaping by 4D Signaling

Information Theory 2018-03-20 v1 math.IT

Abstract

The rate flexibility and probabilistic shaping gain of 44-dimensional signaling is experimentally tested for short-reach, unrepeated transmission. A rate granularity of 0.5 bits/QAM symbol is achieved with a distribution matcher based on a simple look-up table.
