One promising and competitive solution to keep up with the rapid growth in data traffic while at the same time addressing increasing network cost, is the efficient reuse of legacy optical fiber infrastructure. This is highly desirable as deployed single mode fibers represent a valuable asset in the network while new installations would require high additional investments. Multiband (MB) or ultra-wideband (UWB) systems, combined with high symbol rates and higher-order modulation formats, are promising solutions to capitalize the already existing fiber plants. In this contribution, we experimentally demonstrate S-C-L-band reception with 64 GBd dual-polarization (DP) 64-ary and 32-ary quadrature-amplitude modulation (QAM) while using C-band components off-the-shelf (COTS) such as DP-IQ modulators and coherent receivers. To achieve such broadband operation with components that are not optimized for an out-of-band use, mitigation of the associated penalties is decisive. To this end, we apply an end-to-end electro-optical Volterra-based coherent system identification followed by nonlinear digital predistortion of the transmitter. We achieve 150-nm operation bandwidth of the transmission system by performing only a single identification and predistortion at a reference wavelength of 1500 nm.
