Abstract:
Cross-optical-and-electrical-layer hitless data rate adjustment, facilitated by probabilistic shaping and real-time in-line data rate indicators, is proposed, practically capable of getting close to the Shannon limit in field by reducing the link margin. Hitless rate adjustment is experimentally demonstrated with ~1.1 dB clipping penalty.
