Performance Investigation of DFT-Spread OFDM Signal for Short Reach Communication Systems Beyond NG-PON2

In this paper, we investigate the performance of a discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-spread OFDM signal in an intensity-modulation/direct-detection system. We find that DFT-spread OFDM could reduce the peak-to-average power ratio effectively and hence improve the nonlinearity tolerance. Furthermore,...
