We show that the use of pilot symbols enables reliable ND transmission and relaxes the requirements on bit-interleaving, and therefore, on the end-to-end latency. Further, we provide guidelines for the design and choice of carrier recovery and FEC parameters to obtain good performance in typical scenarios. All presented results are achieved through the use of a high-speed system emulation platform based on field-programmable gate arrays and thus achieve high reliability even for very low post-FEC BER.
