By using the fast Fourier transformation (FFT) peak value and variance after the received signal passes through fourth-power operation, accurate identification of high order modulation formats with probabilistic shaping and polarization multiplexing can be realized. A high-speed long-haul coherent optical transmission system is built on the platform of the joint simulation to verify the effectiveness of the method. %U https://journal.bupt.edu.cn/EN/10.13190/j.jbupt.2018-014
