  • Topic: Constellation shaping - All set for maximizing capacity?
  • When: Sunday, December 6, 1:30 p.m. CET
  • Where: ECOC 2020 Workshops, WS9: https://ecoco2020.org/index.php/registration

Constellation shaping has been breaking records in recent optical transport trials. Now innovation in geometrical constellation shaping (GCS) and probabilistic constellation shaping (PCS) is promising to squeeze the last tenths of a dB out of high-capacity optical fiber links. But what's the future for signal shaping? Are there only engineering issues left to fine-tune? Or is there more work to be done to fully understand the tradeoffs and unlock maximum gains?

In this virtual workshop, Tobias Fehenberger and Alex Alvarado will introduce a range of speakers from across the industry and the world of academic research. They will share views on the future of constellation shaping, commercial successes, the tradeoffs to consider and the route to maximum capacity. Register for the online event beginning December 6.
