Abstract

In this article, we propose an iterative soft decision feedback (ISDF) equalizer to compensate for the chromatic dispersion and nonlinear phase noise effects in 30-Gbaud coherent optical filter bank multicarrier with off-set quadrature amplitude modulation (FBMC/OQAM) system. Conventional optical FBMC/OQAM system usually uses a 1-tap zero-forcing equalizer per subcarrier to combat the inter-symbol interference (ISI) caused by the chromatic dispersion (CD) in optical fiber. However, residual ISI and inter-carrier interference (ICI) still remain in the system and have significant impact on the system performance. To overcome this problem, a new ISDF N-tap frequency sampling (FS) equalizer is proposed to jointly mitigate the residual ISI and ICI which permits a better trade-off between performance and complexity. Simulation results show that, the proposed technique is capable of suppressing the interference more effectively than using only 1-tap equalizer. The feedback branch of the proposed ISDF equalizer can be exploited further to compensate for the nonlinear effect of the optical fiber. With compensation of linear and nonlinear impairments the proposed technique acts as a backpropagation method for optical FBMC/OQAM system.
