Abstract

In this paper, we make an overview of three techniques that have used artificial neural networks (ANNs) to model impairments in optical fiber. A comparison between a linear partial least squares regression algorithm and ANN is also shown. We demonstrate that nonlinear modeling is required for multi-impairment monitoring in optical fiber when using Parametric Asynchronous Eye Diagram (PAED). Results demonstrating the accuracy of PAED are also shown. A comparison between PAED and Synchronous Eye Diagrams is also demonstrated, for NRZ, RZ and QPSK modulated signals. We show that PAED can provide comprehensible diagrams for QPSK modulated signals, under a certain range of chromatic dispersion.
