Star 24QAM mapping-based optical probability forming coding method
Technical Field
The invention relates to an optical probability forming coding method, in particular to an optical probability forming coding method based on star 24QAM mapping.
Background
An access network refers to all devices between a user terminal and a backbone network, ranging from hundreds of meters to kilometers in length, and is therefore often referred to as the "last kilometer". When a user uploads or downloads data, signals need to pass through a backbone network and an access network, and because a transmission medium in the backbone network is generally an optical fiber, the transmission speed is high, and the transmission capacity is large, the access network becomes a short board for data transmission, so the intuitive experience of each user is directly influenced by the quality of the signal transmission speed and the signal quality of the access network. With the development of society, the spiritual life and the entertainment mode of people are continuously enriched, the bandwidth of 2M can meet the requirements of people in the past few years, the current HDTV (high Definition television), blue-ray video, high-speed downloading and network games become the daily requirements of households, the hundred megabroadband even can not meet the network requirements of three families, and the requirement for accessing the network is higher.
In order to increase the processing speed and transmission rate of signals as much as possible, in recent years, a breakthrough has been made in the direction of increasing the transmission carrying capacity of a single-channel carrier to approach the shannon limit, and probability shaping has been widely paid attention as an effective method for increasing the channel capacity and reducing the information error rate. Through the combination of probability shaping and Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) coding, Amplitude Phase Shift Keying (APSK) signal shaping, QAM and constellation shaping, the method is found to effectively improve various aspects of performance of signal processing.
QAM is a modulation in which the amplitude and phase of a carrier signal are used to represent different bits of information. This modulation format combines multilevel level amplitude with orthogonal carrier techniques to further improve band utilization. Due to its excellent characteristics, it has been widely used in the fields of satellite communication, high-speed data transmission of digital television, etc. However, QAM signals are still limited by the minimum euclidean distance, and cannot concentrate a large number of constellation points at the origin of the constellation diagram, which results in the reduction of the system channel capacity, so probability shaping provides a solution.
The current probability shaping mainly aims at mapping conventional constellations, such as 8PSK, 16QAM, 32QAM constellations, and the like. The space utilization rate of the conventional constellation diagram is low, and the system performance is limited due to overlarge space gap under the same Euclidean distance, the transmission power redundancy is increased, and the transmission rate and the channel capacity are reduced.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail below by way of examples, which are illustrative of the present invention and are not limited to the following examples, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, the optical probability shaping coding method based on star 24QAM mapping of the present invention,
after signals are input, series-parallel conversion is firstly carried out, then a probability matcher is used, the probability matcher is mainly divided into two parts, the first part is used for mapping the input signals into star 32QAM signals, and the second part is used for mapping the star 32QAM signals into star 24QAM signals in a probability matching mode.
The conventional 32QAM constellation is square and the mapping is as shown in figure 2. The probability matcher is firstly mapped into a star 32QAM constellation diagram, the star 32QAM mapping mode is shown in FIG. 3, the star 32QAM requires five bytes to represent information, the first two bytes represent the number of turns of the constellation point, and the last three bytes represent the phase information of the constellation point.
The original star 32QAM is converted into 24QAM by the probability matcher in the way of FIG. 4. Dividing the constellation points of the outermost circle into three parts, and mapping the three parts into the inner three circles of the same phase; dividing the constellation points of the third circle into three parts, and mapping the three parts into inner three circles which comprise the same phase of the original constellation points; the constellation point of the second circle is divided into two parts, the two parts are mapped into the constellation point of the innermost circle with the same phase point and the original position, and meanwhile, the constellation point of the innermost circle is unchanged. The constellation after mapping is shown in fig. 5.
Due to Eavg=∑ipi×Ei,
Wherein the i subscript denotes the corresponding constellation point, EiRepresenting the energy value of the corresponding constellation point.
Then, the average energy value of the star 32QAM constellation with uniform distribution can be obtained
The average energy value of the formed novel star 24-point constellation diagram is
From this, we can clearly see that the average power of the signal is greatly reduced after probability shaping and constellation improvement.
PAPR=max(Ei)/Eavg,
Where PAPR represents the peak-to-average power ratio, max (E)i) Representing the maximum power point of the constellation. Then there are
It can be seen that the peak-to-average power ratio is obviously improved after probability shaping and constellation improvement. This shows that the energy concentration of the signal is greatly improved after probability shaping and constellation diagram improvement, and basically meets the requirement of shaping on reducing the signal transmission power. The reduction of the average energy of the signal means that the energy value of the signal after constellation shaping is far greater than the energy value of the signal without the constellation shaping under the condition of the same signal transmission power, so that the signal-to-noise ratio of the signal is improved from a relative angle, and the channel capacity value is improved.
Due to the probability matcher, when the signal is mapped to the star 24QAM, the probability distribution of the signal changes, and as can be seen from fig. 6, the probability of the inner circle of the constellation is obviously higher than that of the outer circle.
And inputting the single-path binary bit stream to a serial-parallel conversion unit, and outputting five paths of parallel binary stream signals after serial-parallel conversion. And identifying and labeling the generated five-path binary data, and confirming a final output signal through a label set to which the identification signal belongs. After passing through the probability forming matcher, the distribution of the constellation points in the output signal achieves the purposes of improving the distribution probability of low-energy constellation points and reducing the distribution probability of high-energy constellation points. In QAM constellation mapping, a star 24QAM mapping mode is combined, under the condition that the requirement of the minimum Euclidean distance is met, the total transmitting power of signals is further reduced by shrinking redundant space, and the performance maximization of signal forming is realized. To this end, probability shaping and coded modulation of the star 24QAM constellation are completed.
At the receiving end, an amplifier is used to adjust the signal power to facilitate reception. The demodulator is used for converting the optical signal into an electric signal, the QAM modulator demodulates the 24QAM signal, and then the distributor de-distributor of the distribution matcher removes redundancy of the centralized signal to obtain an original input signal.
The constellation diagram of the receiving end is obtained through simulation and experimental tests, as shown in fig. 7, the constellation diagram is received after passing through an additive white gaussian noise channel, and the probability distribution of the constellation points conforms to the star probability distribution provided by the invention.
The above description of the present invention is intended to be illustrative. Various modifications, additions and substitutions for the specific embodiments described may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the accompanying claims.
