Comparison of ICI Reduction and Fiber Nonlinearity Tolerance for DCS-OFDM and Conventional OFDM With Equal Spectrum Efficiency

Digital coherent superposition (DCS) for optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) subcarrier pairs with Hermitian symmetry can simultaneously reduce the inter-carrier interference (ICI) from laser phase noise and cancel the fiber nonlinearity to the first order. In this paper, we st...
