Abstract:
Consistent with the present disclosure, codewords indicative of a super Gaussian distribution may be encoded and decoded using the encoders and decoders disclosed herein. Based on such codewords, symbols may be transmitted in accordance or in conformance with a super Gaussian distribution to tailor the SE of an optical signal or subcarrier for a given link having non-linear degradations and shaping gain. Such tailed SE may not be achievable with a Gaussian symbol transmission probability distribution.

Claim (Index 20):
An apparatus in accordance with  claim 19 , wherein each of the symbols of the first sequence is represented by a corresponding one of a first plurality of first points in an inphase-quadrature (IQ) plane having I and Q axes, the first super gaussian distribution, p1(x1), satisfies:\n p 1( x 1)= e \u2212K1x1 P1  where x1 is an amplitude associated with each of the plurality of first points taken along one of the I and Q axes, K1 is a first constant, and P1 is a real number other than 2, wherein each of the symbols of the second sequence is represented by a corresponding one of a plurality of second points in the inphase-quadrature (IQ) plane, the second super gaussian distribution, p2(x2), satisfies:\n p 2( x 2)= e \u2212K2x2 P2  \n where x2 is an amplitude associated with each of the plurality of second points taken along one of the I and Q axes, K2 is a second constant, and P2 is a real number other than 2.
