Fractional orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (FrOFDM) exhibits considerable flexibility in the axis of multiplexing and a medium characteristic between OFDM and Nyquist optical time division multiplexing. FrOFDM subcarrier effect on nonlinear distortion in long haul transmission has not experimentally been verified. In this work, we used a highly nonlinear fiber under relatively short transmission conditions for experimental emulation of nonlinear signal distortion under long haul transmission conditions considering no phase modulation in time domain for non-telecom application. We examined the suppression effect on the distortion and confirmed that, FrOFDM subcarriers greatly suppress nonlinear distortion.
