Assistant Editor of Open Access Journal Entropy (IF 2.1, ISSN 1099-4300)
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will address the following topics:
Nonlinear optical fiber communications:
- Propagation models, including information-theory-friendly models
- Signaling with nonlinear Fourier transforms
- Capacity, capacity bounds, and information rates
- Coding and shaping tailored for fiber nonlinearity
- Digital and analogue signal processing
Fiber-related channels:
- Modified fiber channels with new interesting features
- Fiber channels with inline optical regenerators or phase-conjugation
- Integrable channels (via nonlinear Fourier transform)
Direct-detection systems:
- Capacity, capacity bounds, and information rates
- Stokes receivers
- Channels with both ASE and thermal noise
Quantum communications:
- Holevo capacity
- Capacity-achieving quantum receivers
