Abstract
Computer simulations offer a cost-effective way of estimating the physical properties and the performance of communication systems before practical system implementation. In this chapter, some aspects relevant for the simulation of optical fiber transmission systems with high-order modulation are briefly discussed. The discussion covers data sequences and performance measures commonly used for system characterization. Moreover, a detailed illustration of semi-analytical BER estimation provides a deeper insight into the noise characteristics within direct detection receivers.
