Abstract
The Viterbi & Viterbi (V&V) algorithm is well understood for QPSK and 16-QAM, but modifications are required for higher-order modulation formats. We present an approach to extend the standard V&V algorithm for higher-order modulation formats by modifying the transmit constellation with geometric constellation shaping.
