Serial and parallel convolutional neural network schemes for NFDM signals

Abstract Two conceptual convolutional neural network (CNN) schemes are proposed, developed and analysed for directly decoding nonlinear frequency division multiplexing (NFDM) signals with hardware implementation taken into consideration. A serial network scheme with a small network size is designed...

description Abstract Two conceptual convolutional neural network (CNN) schemes are proposed, developed and analysed for directly decoding nonlinear frequency division multiplexing (NFDM) signals with hardware implementation taken into consideration. A serial network scheme with a small network size is designed for small user applications, and a parallel network scheme with high speed is designed for places such as data centres. The work aimed at showing the potential of using CNN for practical NFDM-based fibre optic communication. In the numerical demonstrations, the serial network only occupies 0.5 MB of memory space while the parallel network occupies 128 MB of memory but allows parallel computing. Both network schemes were trained with simulated data and reached more than 99.9% accuracy.
