  • Abstract
    We investigated the use of per-channel rate-adaptive FEC for superchannels, in the presence of fiber nonlinearity, inter-channel interference, and power variations. We found 3~4% peak capacity and ~ 0.3dB nonlinear power threshold increase in most cases compared to the conventional method.
