Increasing Achievable Information Rates via Geometric Shaping

Information Theory 2020-06-05 v2 Signal Processing math.IT

Abstract

Achievable information rates are used as a metric to design novel modulation formats via geometric shaping. The proposed geometrically shaped 256-ary constellation achieves SNR gains of up to 1.18 dB.
