Advanced Digital Signal Processing Techniques for High-Speed Optical Communications Links
share
The main topic of this thesis is the application of advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques to high data-rate optical links. This thesis is divided in two parts: Direct-Detection systems, and Coherent systems. In the first part, it is proposed a novel bi-directional architecture for <2km Intra-DC link and a detailed analysis of self-coherent single-sideband transmission for <80km dispersion-uncompensated Inter-DC link. The second part instead focuses on Probabilistic Constellation Shaping techniques, and their impact on long-haul optical communication links.
