A transmitting device, a receiving device, an optical communication system, and associated methods are provided. The transmitting device transmits an optical signal containing data, and comprises: an optical tone generator for generating at least one optical tone; at least one encoder for performing advanced coding on at least one data signal respectively, each of the at least one data signal carrying a part of the data; at least one mapper for performing high order modulation on the at least one coded data signal; and an up-converter for up-converting the at least one high-order-modulated data signal into the optical signal to be outputted through the at least optical tone. Thereby, high speed (e.g., over 1-Tb/s) transmission per single channel over a long-haul distance (e.g. over 1000-km) with error-free recovery may be achieved.

Optical communication system, device and method employing advanced coding and high modulation order

A system and method for generating an optical comb are provided. The system comprises at least one modulator for modulating a continuous wave sequentially by using at least one signal, respectively so as to generate a comb wave having a first plurality of subcarriers; and a nonlinear medium for causing the respective subcarriers of the comb wave to perform four-wave mixing to thereby generate a comb wave having a second plurality of subcarriers as the optical comb. With the present system and method, an ultra-wide spectrum optical comb with stable frequencies may be generated.
