Laser Phase Noise Effects and Joint Carrier Phase Recovery in Coherent Optical Transmissions With Digital Subcarrier Multiplexing

In this paper, we numerically and experimentally investigate the impairments related to laser phase noise in coherent digital subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) systems. Based on the evaluation in both back-to-back and transmission scenarios and the performance comparison between single carrier (SC) and...
