Inhalt:
In this article we present the influence of the required resolution of the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which is a challenge of real-time coherent transmission systems. Two techniques of feedforward carrier phase recovery (Blind Phase Search (BPS) and QPSK partitioning (QPSKP)) were implemented and a real-time 16-QAM data throughput of 2.5 Gbit/s was achieved in a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) based coherent receiver with different phase estimation filter lengths.
