Fec and Constellation Shaping for Optical Communications

Optical fibres are of paramount importance in today's global telecommunication infrastructure. However, as fibre transmission resources, once deemed virtually unlimited, are approaching exhaustion, digital techniques able to make an efficient use of such resources represent today a hot topic of research. In particular, advanced Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes and constellation shaping are central to maximising information rates of fibre transmission.
