摘要: 在基于高阶调制的相干光通信传输系统中, 接收端信号受相位噪声干扰会对系统性能产生直接的影响。传 统的盲相位搜索 (BPS) 算法具有较高的线宽容差, 适用于多种调制格式, 但随着调制阶数的增加, 用于BPS的测试相 位数量会急剧加大。针对M元正交振幅调制 (M-QAM) 格式, 本研究提出了一种新的低复杂度载波相位估计 (CPE) 算法。首先利用BPS算法, 得到 B 个测试相位和平均欧氏距离之间的关系; 然后在此基础上, 提出了一种基于三次 样条插值 (CSI) 的两级BPS载波相位估计算法, 得到 (2B−1) 个等间隔插值相位和平均欧氏距离之间的光滑曲线关 系; 最后取曲线的最小值处所对应的相位值为最优相位估计值。仿真结果表明, 在使用少量测试相位的前提下, 通过 CSI算法可以有效地对载波相位进行恢复, 与BPS算法相比, CSI算法乘、加法器计算复杂度分别降低了38%和42% (16-QAM), 为载波相位恢复提供了新思路。

Abstract: In coherent optical communication transmission systems based on higher-order modulation, the signal at the receiver side is subject to phase noise interference, which has a direct impact on the system performance. The conventional blind phase search (BPS) algorithm has high line tolerance and is suitable for a variety of modulation formats. However, as the modulation order increases, the number of test phase used for BPS will sharply increase. A new low-complexity carrier phase estimation (CPE) algorithm is proposed in this work for M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) format. Firstly, the relationship between the B test phase and the average Euclidean distance is obtained using the BPS algorithm. Then, a carrier phase estimation based on a two-stage BPS with cubic spline interpolation (CSI) is proposed, and the smooth curve relationship between the (2B− 1) equally spaced interpolated phase and the average Euclidean distance is obtained. Finally, the phase value corresponding to the minimum of the curve is taken as the optimal phase estimation value. The simulation results show that with a small number of test phases, the carrier phase can be effectively recovered by the CSI algorithm, and compared with that of the BPS algorithm, the computational complexity of multiplier and additive of the CSI algorithm is reduced by 38% and 42% (16-QAM) respectively, which provides a new idea for carrier phase recovery.
