The Viterbi & Viterbi (V&V) algorithm is well understood for QPSK and 16-QAM, but modifications are required for higher-order modulation formats. We present an approach to extend the standard V&V algorithm for higher-order modulation…
Vendor interoperability is one of the desired future characteristics of optical networks. This means that the transmission system needs to support a variety of hardware with different components, leading to system uncertainties throughout…

Many satellite communication systems operating today employ low cost upconverters or downconverters which create phase noise. This noise can severely limit the information rate of the system and pose a serious challenge for the detection…
End-to-end learning has become a popular method to optimize a constellation shape of a communication system. When the channel model is differentiable, end-to-end learning can be applied with conventional backpropagation algorithm for…
