Abstract

This paper introduces a novel data-aided carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation and compensation method for m-array phase shift keying (m-PSK) signals in burst-mode digital coherent reception. Its key advances are as follows; the use of newly designed training symbols (TS) that exhibit asymmetric distributed constellations after differential decoding and a vector summation based feed-forward CFO estimation algorithm. These offer short response time and strong robustness to training symbols (TS) timing detection error with wide CFO estimation range of ±B/2, where B is signal baudrate. We evaluate the feasibility of the proposal by simulations of and experiments on 12.5-Gbaud SP-QPSK signals that target optical budget enhancement of 25-Gbps/λ-class PONs to realize long-reach and high splitting ratio optical access. The 100-km burst-mode transmission experiments confirm the proposal offers high sensitivity detection of better than −43 dBm with much wider CFO range of above ±10 GHz.
