Abstract

To provide a transmitting method for optical communication that is applied to various scenarios such as metropolitan area networks, backbone networks, and data center interconnections, exceeding 400 Gbps (including 600 Gbps, 800 Gbps, and the like).SOLUTION: A method includes the steps of generating a super-frame including a plurality of sub-frames, and transmitting the super-frame. Each sub-frame includes training symbols and pilot symbols. Each of the training symbols and the pilot symbols is one of -A-Aj, -A+Aj, A-Aj, and A+Aj, where A is a real number. In addition, in the training symbols and pilot symbols included in each sub-frame, the numbers of -A-Aj, -A+Aj, A-Aj, and A+Aj in two mutually perpendicular polarization directions meet a certain requirement, which can achieve DC balance, and is conducive to signal recovery at a receiving end.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
