AbstractFaster-than-Nyquist non-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (FTN-NOFDM) has been shown to have good robustness against the steep frequency roll-off in a bandwidth-limited optical communication system. Among various FTN-NOFDM techniques, the non-orthogonal matrix precoding (NOM-p) based FTN has relatively high compatibility, which can easily utilize the existing advanced digital signal processing (DSP) techniques in the conventional OFDM. In this work, we propose what we believe to be a novel FTN-NOFDM scheme with adaptive multi-band modulation. By dividing the single-band NOM-p into multiple-band NOM-p, the proposed scheme is able to assign different quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) levels to different sub-bands, leading to better utilization of the low-pass-like channel as well as reduced computational complexity. The impacts of sub-band number and bandwidth compression factor on the bit-error-rate (BER) performance and complexity are experimentally analyzed in a 32.23-Gb/s and 20-km intensity modulation-direct detection (IM-DD) optical transmission system. Results show that the proposed scheme with a proper sub-band number can lower the BER and greatly reduce the complexity compared to the conventional single-band scheme.
