Abstract(in English) Generating rectangular-shaped optical spectra with the bandwidth equal to the symbol rate frequency, we can align such optical signals in the optical frequency domain without the frequency gap between adjacent channels. This is called Nyquist wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) technique, and leads to the spectral efficiency of 1 sybmol/s/Hz. In this paper, we experimentally evaluated the bit-error rate performance of the polarization-division multiplexed (PDM) high-order QAM optical signals in the Nyquist WDM condition. Namely, we generated the 4QAM, 16QAM and 64QAM signals with the rectangular-shaped spectra using the digital signal processing following digital-to-analog conversion and optical IQ modulation. Multiplexing two channels of such QAM signals with rectangular-shaped spectra, we measured the characteristics of the cross-talk noise from adjust WDM channel. The power penalty is negligible for 4QAM when the frequency space is 10 GHz. On the other hand, those for 16QAM and 64QAM are 1 dB and 2 dB, respectively. Finally, we successfully transmitted Nyquist WDM PDM 64QAM signals over 50 km.
