  • Publication number: 20230412433
    Abstract: The invention provides an optical interconnect system and method for a data center. A nonlinear differential precoding module performs nonlinear differential precoding on an inputted original signal, to obtain a precoded signal with an increased quantity of levels. A generalized Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (GTHP) module pre-equalizes the precoded signal, to obtain a pre-equalized signal with scattered distribution. A faster than Nyquist (FTN) module performs high-frequency truncation filtering on the pre-equalized signal, to obtain a discrete signal. A signal transmission module transmits the discrete signal from a transmitting end to a receiving end. A feed-forward equalizer (FFE) performs strong equalization on the discrete signal to obtain a level slice signal, and decodes the level slice signal according to a GTHP decoding table, to obtain a decoded signal.

  • Publication number: 20230308352
    Abstract: The present invention provides an optimization method and system for minimizing network energy consumption based on traffic grooming.

  • Publication number: 20230291633
    Abstract: Probabilistic shaping quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) based on Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution is particularly important in coherent optical communication, which can approach the Shannon limit more desirably in the case of a finite signal-to-noise ratio. However, standard coherent optical digital signal processing algorithms are not optimal for demodulation of PS higher-order QAM signals. The invention provides a probabilistic shaping QAM dynamic equalization method that intercepts multiple inner rings after clock recovery and updates the convergence radius and area of a conventional blind dynamic channel equalization algorithm using a peak density K-means clustering algorithm. The clustering algorithm gives centroid labels and a quantity of classifications required for K-means, which does not require a large number of iterations of K-means, thereby reducing the complexity and improving the accuracy.
