Low Complexity Component Nonlinear Distortions Mitigation Scheme for Probabilistically Shaped 64-QAM Signals

Abstract

We propose a degenerated hierarchical look-up table (DH-LUT) scheme to compensate component nonlinearities. For probabilistically shaped 64-QAM signals, it achieves up to 2-dB SNR improvement, while the size of table is only 8.59% compared to the conventional LUT method.
