Abstract
Nearly perfect nonlinear compensation of 4× 12Gbaud-16QAM WDM signals is experimentally demonstrated to achieve nonlinear threshold improvement greater than 10dB, in which symmetric power evolution is essential. We also numerically investigate Q2-penalty versus power symmetry for varying 4×67.25Gbaud-16QAM WDM transmission distances.
