A Monte Carlo integration based method to calculate symbol log-likelihood ratios for soft iterative decoding in the presence of imperfect carrier phase estimation (CPE) is proposed. The proposed method shows good robustness when CPE is imperfect, in particular for optimum modulation schemes.

We demonstrate a coherent modulator and a receiver based on monolithically-integrated silicon photonic circuits, capable of modulating and detecting 224-Gb/s polarization-division-multiplexed 16-QAM. The high-degree photonic integration promises small-form-factor and low-power transceivers for future coherent systems.

A novel heterodyne optical phase-locked loop (OPLL) has been achieved and testing results are demonstrated with a 0.03 rad2 phase error variance. Based on the superior performance of this OPLL, a system prototype is shown for multiple applications, including free-space LIDAR systems, widely-and-fast-tunable ultra-narrow-linewidth lasers, and ultra-accurate optical spectrum analyzers.
