Nonlinear Interference Analysis of Probabilistic Shaping vs. 4D Geometrically Shaped Formats

Abstract

Performance trade-offs between linear shaping and nonlinear tolerance of the recently introduced 4D orthant-symmetric 128-ary modulation format are investigated. Numerical simulations show 9.3% reach increase with respect to the 7b4D-2A8PSK format and probabilistically-shaped 16QAM with short blocklength.
