Title :
Experimental study of 16-, 32- and 64-QAM constellation sets in the 200-Gb/s regime on a data rate flexible system

Abstract :
We implement a constellation set and data rate flexible system for transmission in the 200-Gb/s regime. Experimental evaluation of 16-, 32-, 64-QAM constellation sets show a small benefit for circular diagrams compared to widely used square sets.
