In this article, Cathy Liu discusses how channel error models and FEC performance analysis have been updated according to industry changes, as well as how different Ethernet coding schemes have been studied and simulated for 800GE and 1.6GE systems with 200 Gbps per lane. Liu investigates concatenated FEC with soft-decision decoding for inner code to protect 200 Gbps optical link and the effect of different FEC options on system SI.
This paper proposes a model that can serve as a tool for evaluating FEC choices in 200+ Gb/s applications. It allows the comparison of the effect of different inner/outer codes and inner-FEC interleaving schemes on post-FEC BER. It can also be used as a tool for system-level transceiver design, allowing designers to see the impact of design choices on the post-FEC BER efficiently.
What are the optimal methods (and their resulting challenges) to achieve 224/212 Gb/s common electrical I/O (CEI) and Ethernet, the highest speed/data rate per lane electrical input/output (I/Os) and link systems? By way of understanding, we begin by investigating optimal pulse amplitude modulation (PAML) vs. channel characteristics at 224 Gb/s.
Interested in performance analysis for 100+ Gb/s per lane PAM4 interfaces? This paper takes a detailed look at high-speed serial link error propagation models and different Ethernet coding schemes as part of FEC performance analysis for 100/200/400 GbE systems with 100+ Gb/s per lane PAM4 interfaces.
Looking into advanced error code correction? Many techniques involve forward error correction. But what exactly is that and how does it relate to your design? Cathy Liu spells it out in this article.
This paper explains the theory, implementation, constraints, and cost of using CTLE, FFE, DFE, and FEC equalization schemes for serial links at and above 112 Gbps.
