Residual Clipping Noise in Multi-layer Optical OFDM: Modeling, Analysis, and Application
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM) schemes are variations of OFDM schemes which produce non-negative signals. Asymmetrically-clipped O-OFDM (ACO-OFDM) is a single-layer O-OFDM scheme, whose spectral efficiency can be enhanced by adopting multiple ACO-OFDM layers or a combination of ACO-OFDM and other O-OFDM schemes. However, since symbol detection in such enhanced ACO-OFDM (eACO-OFDM) is done iteratively, erroneous detection leads to residual clipping noise (RCN) which can degrade performance in practice. Thus, it is important to develop an accurate model for RCN which can be used to design RCN-aware eACO-OFDM schemes. To this end, this paper provides a mathematical analysis of RCN leading to an accurate model of RCN power. The obtained model is used to analyze the performance of various eACO-OFDM schemes. It is shown that the model provides an accurate evaluation of symbol error rate (SER), which would be underestimated if RCN is ignored. Moreover, the model is shown to be useful for designing an RCN-aware resource allocation that increases the robustness of the system in terms of meeting a target SER, compared to an RCN-unaware design.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
