An Interpretable Mapping from a Communication System to a Neural Network for Optimal Transceiver-Joint Equalization

In this paper, we propose a scheme that utilizes the optimization ability of artificial intelligence (AI) for optimal transceiver-joint equalization in compensating for the optical filtering impairments caused by wavelength selective switches (WSS). In contrast to adding or replacing a certain module of existing digital signal processing (DSP), we exploit the similarity between a communication system and a neural network (NN). By mapping a communication system to an NN, in which the equalization modules correspond to the convolutional layers and other modules can been regarded as static layers, the optimal transceiver-joint equalization coefficients can be obtained. In particular, the DSP structure of the communication system is not changed. Extensive numerical simulations are performed to validate the performance of the proposed method. For a 65 GBaud 16QAM signal, it can achieve a 0.76 dB gain when the number of WSSs is 16 with a -6 dB bandwidth of 73 GHz.

A Data-Fusion-Assisted Telemetry Layer for Autonomous Optical Networks

For further improving the capacity and reliability of optical networks, a closed-loop autonomous architecture is preferred. Considering a large number of optical components in an optical network and many digital signal processing modules in each optical transceiver, massive real-time data can be collected. However, for a traditional monitoring structure, collecting, storing and processing a large size of data are challenging tasks. Moreover, strong correlations and similarities between data from different sources and regions are not properly considered, which may limit function extension and accuracy improvement. To address abovementioned issues, a data-fusion-assisted telemetry layer between the physical layer and control layer is proposed in this paper. The data fusion methodologies are elaborated on three different levels: Source Level, Space Level and Model Level. For each level, various data fusion algorithms are introduced and relevant works are reviewed. In addition, proof-of-concept use cases for each level are provided through simulations, where the benefits of the data-fusion-assisted telemetry layer are shown.

Application of Machine Learning in Fiber Nonlinearity Modeling and Monitoring for Elastic Optical Networks

Fiber nonlinear interference (NLI) modeling and monitoring are the key building blocks to support elastic optical networks (EONs). In the past, they were normally developed and investigated separately. Moreover, the accuracy of the previously proposed methods still needs to be improved for heterogenous dynamic optical networks. In this paper, we present the application of machine learning (ML) in NLI modeling and monitoring. In particular, we first propose to use ML approaches to calibrate the errors of current fiber nonlinearity models. The Gaussian-noise (GN) model is used as an illustrative example, and significant improvement is demonstrated with the aid of an artificial neural network (ANN). Further, we propose to use ML to combine the modeling and monitoring schemes for a better estimation of NLI variance. The following contents are the listed errors as mentioned in the comments for reasons of withdrawal. (1) The works, as mentioned as the title, should be addressed is about the elastic optical networks(EON), however, the simulation setup and the results section are focused on the conventional wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) networks. This error may confuse some researcher, getting the misleading decision for the researches about the elastic optical networks. (2) There exists some errors in the results rection, such as, Fig.9(b) and (c) with the wrong captions may result in misleading decision. (3) The split-step-Fourier-method(SSFM) presents good accuracy if the sufficiently small steps are adopted in the calculation, however this paper has not necessary contents and efforts to optimise the step-length of SSFM. This error may confuse the accuracy of simulation results. Therefore, we decide to withdraw this paper from arXiv. The correct and complete paper with the same title was published in journal of lightwave technology with doi: 10.1109/JLT.2019.2910143.

Single wavelength 480 Gb/s direct detection over 80km SSMF enabled by Stokes Vector Kramers Kronig transceiver

We propose 4D modulation with directed detection employing a novel Stokes-Vector Kramers-Kronig transceiver. It shows that employing Stokes vector receiver, transmitted digital carrier and Kramers-Kronig detection offers an effective way to de-rotate polarization multiplexed complex double side band signal without using a local oscillator at receiver. The impact of system parameters and configurations including carrier-to-signal-power ratio, guard band of the digital carrier, oversampling ratio and real MIMO is experimentally investigated. Finally, a record 480 Gb/s data rate over 80 km SSMF is achieved in a 60 Gbaud PDM-16QAM single carrier experiment with a BER below the threshold of 2.0x10-2
