Patent number: 11496221Abstract: An optical transmitter, having an encoder and modulator, transmits a data signal. The encoder maps information bits of the data signal to a symbol in eight-dimensional (8D) constellation space spanned by vectors IXT1, QXT1, IYT1, QYT1, IXT2, QXT2, IYT2, QYT2, wherein I and Q are in-phase and quadrature components of an optical carrier, X and Y are orthogonal polarizations of the optical carrier, and T1 and T2 are two consecutive transmission time slots, by selecting the symbol from a set of constellation points in the 8D space. The modulator uses the symbol in the two consecutive transmission time slots to modulate two carrier waves, and to transmit the two carrier waves over the orthogonal polarizations of the optical carrier. The set of constellation points do not include any constellation point with parallel Stokes vectors in the two consecutive transmission time slots but comprise constellation points with orthogonal Stokes vectors.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2021Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Djalal Falih Bendimerad, Hartmut Hafermann, Huijian Zhang
