High-Speed, High-Performance DQPSK Optical Links with Reduced Complexity VDFE Equalizers

Optical transmission technologies optimized for optical network segments sensitive to power consumption and cost, comprise modulation formats with direct detection technologies. Specifically, non-return to zero differential quaternary phase shift keying (NRZ-DQPSK) in deployed fiber plants, combined...
