In this work, we propose jutted binary modulation on conjugate-reciprocal zeros (J-BMOCZ) for non-coherent communication under a carrier frequency offset (CFO). By introducing asymmetry to the Huffman BMOCZ zero constellation, we exploit the identical aperiodic auto-correlation function of BMOCZ sequences to derive a Fourier-domain metric for CFO estimation. Unlike the existing methods for Huffman BMOCZ, which require a cyclically permutable code (CPC) for pilot-free CFO correction, J-BMOCZ enables the estimation of a CFO without the use of pilots or channel coding. Through numerical simulations in additive white Gaussian noise and fading channels, we show that the bit error rate (BER) loss of J-BMOCZ under a CFO is just 1 dB over Huffman BMOCZ without a CFO. Furthermore, the results show that coded J-BMOCZ achieves better BER performance than Huffman BMOCZ with a CPC.

A Smooshed BMOCZ Zero Constellation for CFO Estimation Without Channel Coding
In this study, we propose a new binary modulation on conjugate-reciprocal zeros (BMOCZ) zero constellation, which we call smooshed binary modulation on conjugate-reciprocal zeros (SBMOCZ), to address carrier frequency offset (CFO)- induced zero rotation without depending on channel coding. In our approach, we modify the phase mapping of Huffman BMOCZ by shrinking the angle between adjacent zeros, except for the first and last, to introduce a gap in the zero constellation. By discerning the gap location in the received polynomial, the receiver can estimate and correct the phase rotation. We demonstrate the error rate performance of SBMOCZ relative to Huffman BMOCZ, showing that SBMOCZ addresses a CFO-induced rotation at the cost of a modest performance reduction compared to Huffman BMOCZ in the absence of a CFO. Finally, we compare SBMOCZ to Huffman BMOCZ using a cyclically permutable code (CPC), showing a 4 dB bit error rate (BER) improvement in a fading channel, while demonstrating comparable performance across other simulations.

Residual self-interference cancellation is an important practical requirement for realizing the full potential of full-duplex (FD) communication. Traditionally, the residual self-interference is cancelled via digital processing at the baseband, which requires accurate knowledge of channel estimates of the desired and self-interference channels. In this work, we consider point-to-point FD communication and propose a superimposed signaling technique to cancel the residual self-interference and detect the data without estimating the unknown channels. We show that when the channel estimates are not available, data detection in FD communication results in ambiguity if the modulation constellation is symmetric around the origin. We demonstrate that this ambiguity can be resolved by superimposed signalling, i.e., by shifting the modulation constellation away from the origin, to create an asymmetric modulation constellation. We compare the performance of the proposed detection method to that of the conventional channel estimation-based detection method, where the unknown channels are first estimated and then the data signal is detected. Simulations show that for the same average energy over a transmission block, the bit error rate performance of the proposed detection method is better than that of the conventional method. The proposed method does not require any channel estimates and is bandwidth efficient.more » « less

Independent component analysis for impairment mitigation in direct-detected Stokes vector modulationIn this paper we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate a novel adaptation of independent component analysis (ICA) for compensation of both cross-polarization and inter-symbol interference in a direct-detection link using Stokes vector modulation (SVM). SVM systems suffer from multiple simultaneous impairments that can be difficult to resolve with conventional optical channel DSP techniques. The proposed method is based on a six-dimensional adaptation of ICA that simultaneously de-rotates the SVM constellation, corrects distortion of constellation shape, and mitigates inter-symbol interference (ISI) at high symbol rates. Experimental results at 7.5 Gb/s and 15Gb/s show that the newly developed ICA-based equalizer achieves power penalties below ∼1 dB, compared to the ideal theoretical bit-error rate (BER) curves. At 30-Gb/s, where ISI is more severe, ICA still enables polarization de-rotation and BER < 10−5before error correction.more » « less

Abstract The achievable rate of information transfer in optical communications is determined by the physical properties of the communication channel, such as the intrinsic channel noise. Bosonic phase noise channels, a class of non-Gaussian channels, have emerged as a relevant noise model in quantum information and optical communication. However, while the fundamental limits for communication over Gaussian channels have been extensively studied, the properties of communication over Bosonic phase noise channels are not well understood. Here we propose and demonstrate experimentally the concept of optimized communication strategies for communication over phase noise channels to enhance information transfer beyond what is possible with conventional methods of modulation and detection. Two key ingredients are generalized constellations of coherent states that interpolate between standard on-off keying and binary phase-shift keying formats, and non-Gaussian measurements based on photon number resolving detection of the coherently displaced signal. For a given power constraint and channel noise strength, these novel strategies rely on joint optimization of the input alphabet and the measurement to provide enhanced communication capability over a non-Gaussian channel characterized in terms of the error rate as well as mutual information.more » « less

In this paper the theory and design of codes capable of correcting t insertion/deletion of the symbol 0 in each and every bucket of zeros (i. e., zeros in between two consecutive ones) are studied. It is shown that this problem is related to the zero error capacity achieving codes in limited magnitude error channel. Close to optimal non-systematic code designs and the encoding/decoding algorithms are described.more » « less
