ReproduceAbstract
Real-time 10,000 km transmission over a straight-line link is achieved using a software-defined multi-modulation format receiver implemented on a commercial off-the-shelf general-purpose graphics processing unit (GPU). Minimum phase 1 GBaud 4-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signals are transmitted over 10,000 km and successfully received after detection with a Kramers-Kronig (KK) coherent receiver. 8-, 16-, 32-, and 64-QAM are successfully transmitted over 7600, 5600, 3600, and 1600 km, respectively.
