This paper reviews recent progress on different high-speed optical short-and medium-reach
transmission systems. Furthermore, a comprehensive tutorial on high-performance, low-cost …

Starting from a previously proposed frequency-domain Volterra series nonlinear equalizer
(VSNE), whose complexity evolves as O (N 3), with N being the frequency-domain block …

Stokes space modulation format recognition (Stokes MFR) is a blind method enabling digital
coherent receivers to infer modulation format information directly from a received …

We present a technique for modulation format recognition for heterogeneous reconfigurable
optical networks. The method is based on Stokes space signal representation and uses a …

Optical modulation format identification is critical in the next generation of heterogeneous
and reconfigurable optical networks. Here, we present a blind modulation format …

We propose a novel polarization demultiplexing technique for complex modulated signals
using the Stokes space polarization representation of the signal samples. Polarization …

Monitoring data from deployed backbone networks shows that many lightpaths present large
fluctuations of their quality of transmission (QoT), beyond 1 dB in range. In this paper, we …

We propose a joint multi-polarization-effect tracking and equalization method based on two
extended Kalman filters, which can cope with state of polarization (SOP) tracing, polarization …

A probability-aware blind polarization demultiplexing (PolDemux) algorithm using symbols
of different radii in the Stokes space is proposed for polarization division multiplexed (PDM) …

We propose a novel closed-form time-domain (TD) Volterra series nonlinear equalizer
(VSNE) for the mitigation of Kerr-related distortions in polarization-multiplexed (PM) …
