Abstract

We experimentally verified the enhanced nonlinear tolerance of probabilistic shaping (PS) 64QAM super symbol (SUP) transmission over both dispersion uncompensated and compensated standard single mode fiber (SSMF) links. PS-64QAM with SUP is found to provide ∼0.51- and ∼1.6-dB gains in OSNR over PS-64QAM with traditional probabilistic amplitude shaping, after ∼1000-km uncompensated and 320-km compensated links, respectively.
