On the achievable average power reduction of MSM optical signals

Abstract

In this letter, we consider the achievable average power reduction of multiple subcarrier modulated optical signals by using optimized reserved carriers. Based on Nehari's result we present a lower bound for the maximum average power of the signal after adding the reserved carriers. Simulations show that the mean value of the average required power behaves very close to /spl radic/(2nloglogn) for binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) constellations where n is the number of subcarriers. We further remark on evaluating optimum values for reserved carriers using convex optimization and Nehari's result.
