Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing of signals in a point-to-multipoint (P2MP) network are provided. The processing includes obtaining link conditions, in a spectrum comprising multiple OFDM subcarriers, of a plurality of users at respective user nodes that are in communication with a central node of the network. The processing further includes inputting the link conditions to an entropy loading (EL) algorithm, thereby to determine a modulation format for each of the OFDM subcarriers; optimizing an allocation of OFDM subcarriers to users according to an OFDMA scheme; and for each user, loading data from a bitstream onto the allocated OFDM subcarriers in the respective determined modulation formats.

Abstract: A radio apparatus and system may include a means for modulating and/or demodulating an optical signal for respective transmission and/or reception of the optical signal using an optical channel connected to a remote radio unit. There may also be provided a means for performing, based on one or more pre-trained computational models, one or more operations on a digital signal corresponding to the optical signal for mitigating one or more non-linearities introduced by the optical modulating and/or demodulating means and the optical channel. The one or more pre-trained computational models may be pre-trained based on feedback data indicative of said one or more non-linearities.
