Abstract
We propose a promising fiber nonlinearity-tolerant optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) monitoring technique for high speed long haul polarization multiplexed-quadrature phase shift keying (PM-QPSK) Nyquist wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) coherent optical fiber transmission system, in which the correlation function between the symbols in all states of polarization as well as neighboring channels are exploited instead of the traditional GN model, thus it does not need the prior knowledge of the fiber transmission link nor the complicated integrals. The method is demonstrated to have the OSNR measurement error below 1.28Â dB over a wide OSNR range from 10Â dB to 28Â dB in 100Â Gb/s per channel PM-QPSK-Nyquist-WDM system when the launch power is up to 4Â dBm and transmission distance is as long as 1600Â km.
