| 摘要 |
A method (1200) of transmitting digital information via a nonlinear optical channel (722), comprises receiving (1202) data (702) comprising at least a portion of the digital information. A plurality of frequency domain symbols is generated (1204) from the data, and each symbol is assigned to one of a predetermined plural number of frequency sub-bands. Each sub-band may be processed separately (1206) to reduce a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of a transmitted optical signal. The optical signal (12) is then generated (1208) comprising the plural number of sub-bands, and transmitted via the nonlinear optical channel (722). The plural number of frequency sub-bands is predetermined so as to reduce nonlinear optical distortion of the optical signal within the nonlinear optical channel relative to a corresponding single frequency band signal. A corresponding information-receiving method, a transmitter apparatus and a receiver apparatus are also disclosed. |
