Title
Guided scrambling: a new line coding technique for high bit rate fiber optic transmission systems
Abstract
The technique introduced has relatively simple encoding and decoding procedures which can be implemented at the high bit rates used in optical fiber communication systems. Because it is similar to the established technique of self-synchronizing scrambling but is also capable of guiding the scrambling process to produce a balanced encoded bit stream, the technique is called guided scrambling, (GS). The concept of GS coding is explained, and design parameters which ensure good line code characteristics are discussed. The performance of a number of guided scrambling configurations is reported in terms of maximum consecutive like-encoded bits, encoded stream disparity, decoder error extension, and power spectral density of the encoded signal. Comparison of guided scrambling with conventional line code techniques indicates a performance which approaches that of alphabetic lookup table codes with an implementation complexity similar to that of current nonalphabetic coding techniques.
