Experimental Verification of Complex-Valued Artificial Neural Network for Nonlinear Equalization in Coherent Optical Communication Systems

Description

We propose a novel design of neural networks for mitigating the fiber nonlinearity, employing a structure based on physical modeling. The neural network achieved nearly 5 times BER reduction in field trial when transmitting WDM 200G DP-16QAM over a 612 km legacy link.
