Ultrahigh-Speed Signal Transmission Over Nonlinear and Dispersive Fiber Optic Channel: The Multicarrier Advantage

There is a common belief that coherent optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) has inferior nonlinear performance in the fiber optic channel due to its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In this paper, we show that due to the uniqueness of chromatic dispersion in the optic...
