Knowing only two high-order statistical moments of modulation symbols, often represented by the fourth moment called "kurtosis", the overestimation of nonlinear interference (NLI) in a Gaussian noise (GN) model due to Gaussian signaling assumption can be corrected through an enhanced GN (EGN) model.

By tailoring probabilistic constellation shaping (PCS) for nonlinearity tolerance, we experimentally demonstrate up to 1. 1 dB increase in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and 6. 4% increase in total net data rate (NDR) compared to linear-channel-optimized PCS on a 2824-km dispersion-managed wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) optical fiber link.
