Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of optical fiber communication technology, and particularly relates to a noise equalization method and apparatus for a high-order modulated dual-biased continuous spectrum NFDM system. Background Technology

[0002] With the booming development of cloud platforms, the Internet of Things, online high-definition video playback, and artificial intelligence, global data traffic demand is growing exponentially. This has driven fiber optic communication systems and networks, as the backbone of information transmission, to develop towards ultra-high speed and ultra-large capacity. To meet the ever-increasing capacity demands, various new technologies such as high-order modulation formats, wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), and space division multiplexing are widely used or researched. While the application of new technologies improves system transmission capacity and spectral efficiency, it also leads to increasingly higher input power to the fiber, and the impact of fiber nonlinearity on system performance is becoming increasingly severe. Nonlinear damage caused by fiber nonlinearity has become the most significant factor limiting the improvement of system capacity. The emerging nonlinear frequency division multiplexing (NFDM) technology treats nonlinearity as an inherent property of optical fiber communication systems. By designing a completely new communication system architecture, it theoretically avoids the adverse effects of optical fiber nonlinearity. Its core idea is to linearize the nonlinear optical fiber channel using the mathematical tool of nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT, also known as backscattering IST). Specifically, it utilizes the important characteristic that the nonlinear spectrum (NS) obtained by NFT evolves linearly in the nonlinear optical fiber channel to modulate information onto the nonlinear spectrum for transmission in the optical fiber. Depending on the type of nonlinear spectrum, NFDM systems can be divided into discrete spectrum modulation, continuous spectrum modulation, and full-spectrum modulation. Different modulation methods can be further subdivided into single-biased transmission and double-biased transmission.

[0003] While NFDM systems theoretically solve the capacity limitation problem caused by nonlinear effects in high-speed, long-distance fiber optic communication, their channel model requires lossless and noise-free conditions for the signal's NS (Neural Switching) to follow a linear evolution pattern. This allows the NFT algorithm at the receiver (Rx) to accurately recover the transmitter (Tx) signal. However, loss and noise are unavoidable in practical fiber optic links. For loss, NFDM systems can approximate the loss using a lossless path-averaged channel (LPA) model, with more accurate models for shorter fiber spans. Noise, due to its inherent randomness, cannot be addressed using a simple, uniform model in NFDM systems. The noise issues primarily stem from computational errors in the nonlinear forward / inverse Fourier transform (NFT / INFT) algorithm. Because this algorithm is inherently nonlinear, it suffers from high computational complexity and implementation difficulty. Furthermore, it exhibits significant computational errors when processing high-energy signals, hindering the modulation of multiple discrete spectra and large numbers of subcarrier continuous spectra, thus limiting the transmission performance and spectral efficiency of the NFDM system. Physical noise, mainly spontaneous emission noise (ASE) introduced by the fiber amplifier (EDFA), violates the integrability condition of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, causing crosstalk as the nonlinear spectrum becomes non-orthogonal. Additionally, ASE in the nonlinear frequency domain (NSD) is no longer a Gaussian white noise model but exhibits a strong correlation with signal power and interacts with the signal, further limiting the transmission performance and spectral efficiency of the NFDM system.

[0004] To address noise processing, existing technologies propose using the Wiener-Hopf method to perform CS INFT calculations, avoiding the error propagation problem inherent in the classic Ablowitz-Ladik algorithm in the frequency domain. Existing technologies also propose a "multi-exponential" algorithm, achieving fourth-order accuracy for NFTs. However, these methods still suffer from high computational complexity and large INFT / NFT algorithm errors when processing high-power signals. Existing technologies also directly use convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to demodulate information from the NFDM time-domain waveform, replacing the original NFT demodulation and reducing numerical calculation errors; however, the CNNs in this scheme have high complexity. Currently, there is no solution that simultaneously reduces complexity and improves accuracy for noise processing. To address the combined impact of ASE noise and noise processing, existing technologies also use feedforward artificial neural networks (FFNNs) to equalize noise in the nonlinear frequency domain, demonstrating an order-of-magnitude improvement in bit error rate (BER) through numerical simulations. Subsequently, the team proposed a bidirectional long short-term memory recurrent neural network (BLSTM) equalization scheme, which significantly outperforms the previously proposed FFNN equalization scheme. However, this approach significantly increases complexity and is only applicable to SP-CS NFDM systems. Existing technologies propose a two-stage ANN that can equalize interference between NFDM pulses in the time domain and crosstalk between subcarriers in the nonlinear spectral domain. While this approach achieves joint noise equalization across multiple dimensions, its complexity increases significantly. Existing technologies propose introducing probabilistic shaping (PS) in Tx and utilizing a real-valued neural network (r-ANN) in Rx to implement a joint noise equalization scheme. However, this scheme only studies noise equalization in SP-CS NFDM systems, and the highest modulation order is 64QAM. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings in the prior art, this invention provides a noise equalization method and apparatus for a high-order modulated dual-biased continuous spectrum NFDM system, which solves the noise problem in the DP-CS NFDM system.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a noise equalization method for a high-order modulated dual-biased continuous spectrum NFDM system, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1. At the transmitting end, the distribution probability corresponding to the constellation points of the high-order modulation format is generated using the MB distribution, and PS symbols are generated according to the distribution probability to reduce signal power.

[0009] S2. The PS symbol is modulated onto the scattering coefficient to generate a time-domain signal, and the time-domain signal is electro-optically converted and transmitted to the optical fiber;

[0010] S3. The PS symbols are recovered by the receiver in the reverse DSP order of the transmitter, and their sorting order is reorganized to obtain the input features of c-ANN.

[0011] S4. Use the ideal symbols from the transmitter and the reorganized c-ANN input features from the receiver as the labels and input data of the c-ANN network to obtain the equalized data.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention utilizes PS technology to reduce the distribution probability of high-power constellation points in high-order modulation format signals, reduces the peak-to-average power ratio of continuous spectrum subcarriers, and achieves suppression and equalization of ASE noise and processing noise. Furthermore, it utilizes c-ANN to effectively suppress the correlation between subcarriers caused by noise, thereby obtaining equalized data and achieving suppression and equalization of ASE noise and processing noise. This invention can effectively equalize noise and improve system performance.

[0013] Furthermore, the expression for the probability distribution in step S1 is as follows:

[0014]

[0015] Where, p i Re represents the probability distribution, v represents the integer factor, and Re(·) and Im(·) represent the QAM symbols x for each complex number, respectively. i The real and imaginary parts, χ denotes the complex number QAM symbol, x i Represents the QAM symbol for the i-th complex number;

[0016] The expression for the signal power is as follows:

[0017]

[0018] Among them, P i Indicates signal power.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned further scheme are: when the modulation format order increases, the signal power increases, and the ASE noise decreases. However, the increase in signal energy will cause the processing noise to increase sharply. Therefore, this invention introduces PS technology to reduce the distribution probability of high-power constellation points of high-order modulation format signals, thereby reducing the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of continuous spectrum subcarriers and achieving suppression and equalization of processing noise.

[0020] Furthermore, step S2 includes the following steps:

[0021] S201. At the transmitting end, the PS symbol is modulated using OFDM to generate an NFDM symbol, the NFDM symbol is modulated to an intermediate variable, and then modulated using Γ. b The transformation is converted to scattering coefficients, where Γ bRepresents the GAMMA transform;

[0022] S202. The scattering coefficients are converted into time-domain signals using the nonlinear inverse Fourier transform (INFT) algorithm.

[0023] S203. Based on the time-domain signal, the electrical signal is converted into an optical signal using an IQ modulator, and the optical signal is transmitted to the optical fiber.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned further scheme are: for DP-CS NFDM systems, the present invention chooses to encode information on nonlinear coefficients, which can generate more compact time-domain signals and reduce the interaction between signals and noise compared with other encoding methods.

[0025] Furthermore, the expression for the intermediate variable is as follows:

[0026]

[0027] Among them, u m,n (λ) represents an intermediate variable, and A represents the input power of the control signal. This indicates phase rotation, used to achieve dispersion precompensation, where j represents an imaginary number and λ represents the nonlinear frequency, z represents the distance transmitted along the optical fiber, and N c T represents the number of subcarriers, k represents the k-th subcarrier, T0 represents the effective time of the time-domain signal, and T S The time-unified time parameter is represented by n, which represents the nth NFDM pulse, m, which represents the two polarizations x and y, and c. m,k,n This represents the QAM symbol on the k-th subcarrier with the m-th polarization, and is used to represent the transmitted n-th QAM symbol;

[0028] The expression for the scattering coefficient is as follows:

[0029] b m,n (λ)=Γ b u m,n (λ), m∈{x,y}

[0030] Among them, b i,n (λ) represents the scattering coefficient.

[0031] Furthermore, step S3 includes the following steps:

[0032] S301. Use a coherent receiver to convert the optical signal into a time-domain signal;

[0033] S302. Based on the converted time-domain signal, the scattering coefficient is calculated using the nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT) algorithm.

[0034] S303. Based on the scattering coefficients calculated in step S302, remove the fiber channel response through a one-step phase-shifting operation, and utilize Γ... b The inverse transform yields intermediate variables, and OFDM demodulation is used to recover the PS symbols, where Γ b Represents the GAMMA transform;

[0035] S304. Reorganize the sorting order of the recovered PS symbols to obtain the input features of c-ANN.

[0036] The beneficial effect of the above-mentioned further scheme is that, since inter-carrier crosstalk occurs between the previous subcarrier and the next subcarrier, the present invention reorganizes their arrangement order, and the middle subcarrier is the target to be equalized, thus obtaining the input features of c-ANN.

[0037] Furthermore, the expression for the input features of the c-ANN is as follows:

[0038] S m =[S -n ,S -n+1 ,...,S0,...,S n-1 ,S n ], m∈{x,y}

[0039] Among them, S m Let S0 represent the input features of c-ANN, and S represent the current symbol. -n S -n+1 S represents the symbol preceding the current symbol. n-1 and S n This indicates the symbol following the current symbol, n represents the nth symbol, and m represents the two polarizations x and y.

[0040] Furthermore, step S4 includes the following steps:

[0041] S401. The reorganized c-ANN input features at the receiving end are sent to the input layer of the c-ANN network, and the ideal symbol at the transmitting end is used as the ideal output of the c-ANN network.

[0042] S402. Calculate the real and imaginary parts of the c-ANN input features;

[0043] S403. Calculate the actual output z based on the real and imaginary parts of the c-ANN input features:

[0044] z = S m ×W+b=(S r ×W r -S i ×W i )+j(S r ×Wi +S i ×W r )+(b r +jb i )

[0045] Among them, S m This represents the input features of the c-ANN, where W and b represent the weights and biases of neurons in the complex-valued fully connected layer, respectively. W = W r +jW i ,b=b r +jb i j represents an imaginary number, b r and b i S represents the real and imaginary parts of the bias, respectively. r W represents the real part of the input feature. r S represents the weight of the real part. i W represents the imaginary part of the input feature. i The weights represent the imaginary part;

[0046] S404. Based on the actual output z, the weights of the neurons are trained using the backpropagation algorithm to minimize the error between the actual output of the c-ANN network and the ideal symbol at the transmitter, thus obtaining the equalized data.

[0047] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned further scheme are as follows: In the low transmit power region (below the optimal transmit power), ASE noise plays a major role, and its impact on the signal tends to be additive. Therefore, there is a weak correlation between subcarriers, and c-ANN can only bring a small gain. However, in the high transmit power region (above the optimal transmit power), the impact of noise processing is severe, and the correlation between subcarriers is enhanced. Therefore, the noise equalization effect of c-ANN is significant.

[0048] Secondly, the present invention provides a noise equalization system for a noise equalization method of a high-order modulated dual-biased continuous spectrum NFDM system, comprising:

[0049] The first processing module is used to generate the distribution probability corresponding to the constellation points of the high-order modulation format using the MB distribution at the transmitting end, and generate PS symbols according to the distribution probability to reduce signal power;

[0050] The second processing module is used to modulate the PS symbol onto the scattering coefficient to generate a time-domain signal, and then transmit the time-domain signal to the optical fiber after electro-optic conversion.

[0051] The third processing module is used to recover the PS symbols at the receiving end according to the DSP order opposite to that at the transmitting end, reorganize their sorting order, and obtain the input features of c-ANN.

[0052] The fourth processing module is used to take the ideal symbols from the transmitter and the reorganized c-ANN input features from the receiver as the labels and input data of the c-ANN network to obtain the equalized data.

[0053] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention utilizes PS technology to reduce the distribution probability of high-power constellation points in high-order modulation format signals, reduces the PAPR of continuous spectrum subcarriers, achieves suppression and equalization of ASE noise and processing noise, and improves equalization performance by introducing c-ANN to effectively weaken the correlation between subcarriers caused by noise.

[0063] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described below to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present invention. However, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the scope of the specific embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes are obvious as long as they are within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined and determined by the appended claims.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] To address the noise problem in DP-CS NFDM systems, this invention provides a noise equalization method for high-order modulated dual-biased continuous-spectrum NFDM systems. This method utilizes PS technology to reduce the distribution probability of high-power constellation points in the high-order modulation format signal, thereby reducing the PAPR of continuous-spectrum subcarriers and achieving suppression and equalization of ASE noise and processing noise. Furthermore, by introducing c-ANN, it effectively weakens the inter-carrier correlation caused by noise, improving equalization performance. Figure 1 As shown, this invention provides a noise equalization method for a high-order modulated dual-biased continuous-spectrum NFDM system, the implementation of which is as follows:

[0066] S1. At the transmitting end, the distribution probability corresponding to the constellation points of the high-order modulation format is generated using the MB distribution, and PS symbols are generated according to the distribution probability to reduce signal power.

[0067] In this embodiment, the Maxwell-Boltzmann (MB) distribution is used at the transmitting end to generate the distribution probability corresponding to the constellation points of the high-order modulation format. PS symbols are generated according to the distribution probability. By reducing the peak-to-average power ratio of the continuous spectrum subcarriers, the suppression and equalization of ASE noise and processing noise are achieved.

[0068] In this embodiment, the distribution probability of constellation points can be obtained through the MB distribution, and its specific form is as follows:

[0069]

[0070] Where, p i Re represents the probability distribution, v represents the integer factor, and Re(·) and Im(·) represent the QAM symbols x for each complex number, respectively. i The real and imaginary parts, χ denotes the complex number QAM symbol, x i Let v represent the i-th complex QAM symbol. Given a v, we can obtain the corresponding probability distribution of the PS symbol.

[0071] The PS symbol is randomly generated using the probability distribution, and the signal power can be obtained from the following formula:

[0072]

[0073] Among them, P i χ represents the signal power, and χ represents the complex QAM symbol.

[0074] In this embodiment, since the power of the high-order modulation signal is large, the processing noise will increase sharply. The introduction of PS technology can reduce the distribution probability of the peripheral constellation points, thereby reducing the signal power and achieving noise suppression and equalization.

[0075] S2. The PS symbol is modulated onto the scattering coefficient to generate a time-domain signal, which is then electro-optically converted and transmitted into the optical fiber. The implementation method is as follows:

[0076] Step S2 includes the following steps:

[0077] S201, S201, at the transmitting end, the PS symbol is modulated using OFDM to generate an NFDM symbol, the NFDM symbol is modulated to an intermediate variable, and then modulated using Γ b The transformation is converted to scattering coefficients, where Γ b Represents the GAMMA transform;

[0078] The expression for the intermediate variable is as follows:

[0079]

[0080] Among them, u m,n (λ) represents an intermediate variable, and A represents the input power of the control signal. This indicates phase rotation, used to achieve dispersion precompensation, where j represents an imaginary number and λ represents the nonlinear frequency, z represents the distance transmitted along the optical fiber, and N c T represents the number of subcarriers, k represents the k-th subcarrier, T0 represents the effective time of the time-domain signal, and T S The time-unified time parameter is represented by n, which represents the nth NFDM pulse, m, which represents the two polarizations x and y, and c. m,k,n This represents the QAM symbol on the k-th subcarrier with the m-th polarization, and is used to represent the transmitted n-th QAM symbol;

[0081] The expression for the scattering coefficient is as follows:

[0082] b m,n (λ)=Γ b u m,n (λ), m∈{x,y}

[0083] Among them, b i,n (λ) represents the scattering coefficient.

[0084] S202. The scattering coefficients are converted into time-domain signals using the nonlinear inverse Fourier transform (INFT) algorithm.

[0085] S203. Based on the time-domain signal, the electrical signal is converted into an optical signal using an IQ modulator, and the optical signal is transmitted to the optical fiber.

[0086] S3. The PS symbols are recovered at the receiver in the reverse DSP order compared to the transmitter, and their sorting order is reorganized to obtain the input features of the c-ANN. A schematic diagram of the c-ANN equalizer is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, its implementation method is as follows:

[0087] S301. Use a coherent receiver to convert the optical signal into a time-domain signal;

[0088] S302. Based on the converted time-domain signal, the scattering coefficient is calculated using the nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT) algorithm.

[0089] S303. Based on the scattering coefficients calculated in step S302, remove the fiber channel response through a one-step phase-shifting operation, and utilize Γ... b The inverse transform yields intermediate variables, and OFDM demodulation is used to recover the PS symbols, where Γ b Represents the GAMMA transform;

[0090] S304. Reorganize the sorting order of the recovered PS symbols to obtain the input features of c-ANN.

[0091] In this embodiment, after receiving the optical signal transmitted through the optical fiber, the receiving end uses a coherent receiver to convert the optical signal into a time-domain signal, then obtains the scattering coefficients using a nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT) algorithm, removes the optical fiber channel response through a one-step phase shift operation, and utilizes Γ... b The inverse transform yields intermediate variables, which are then demodulated using OFDM to recover the PS symbols. The input features of the c-ANN are the symbols on the received terminal carrier, such as... Figure 2 As shown in (a), it is represented as:

[0092] S m =[S -n ,S -n+1 ,...,S0,...,S n-1 ,S n ], m∈{x,y}

[0093] Among them, S m =S r +jS i Both are complex numbers, representing the input features of c-ANN, S0 represents the current symbol, S -n S -n+1 S represents the symbol preceding the current symbol. n-1 and S n This indicates the sign following the current symbol, where m represents the two polarizations x and y, and S...r S represents the real part of the input feature. i Let j represent the imaginary part of the input feature. The number of nodes in the c-ANN input layer is related to the input feature consisting of the current symbol and the 2n adjacent symbols on both sides, so the number of nodes in the input layer is set to 2n+1.

[0094] S4. Using the ideal symbols from the transmitting end and the reorganized c-ANN input features from the receiving end as the labels and input data of the c-ANN network, the equalized data is obtained. The implementation method is as follows:

[0095] S401. The reorganized c-ANN input features at the receiving end are sent to the input layer of the c-ANN network, and the ideal symbol at the transmitting end is used as the ideal output of the c-ANN network.

[0096] S402. Calculate the real and imaginary parts of the c-ANN input features;

[0097] S403. Calculate the actual output z based on the real and imaginary parts of the c-ANN input features:

[0098] z = S m ×W+b=(S r ×W r -S i ×W i )+j(S r ×W i +S i ×W r )+(b r +jb i )

[0099] Among them, S m This represents the input features of the c-ANN, where W and b represent the weights and biases of neurons in the complex-valued fully connected layer, respectively. W = W r +jW i ,b=b r +jb i j represents an imaginary number, b r and b i S represents the real and imaginary parts of the bias, respectively. r W represents the real part of the input feature. r S represents the weight of the real part. i W represents the imaginary part of the input feature. i This represents the weight of the imaginary part. Figure 2 (c) gives the complex logic structure inside the c-ANN: First, the input feature S is obtained. m The real part S r And the imaginary part S i Then, for the real part operation, the real part S of the input feature...r Multiplied by the real part W of the weight r Similarly, the imaginary part operation is S. i Multiplied by W i Finally, subtract the two products and add the real part of the bias, b. r Similarly, the imaginary part of the actual output z can be obtained as the real part of the actual output z.

[0100] S404. Based on the actual output z, the weights of the neurons are trained using the backpropagation algorithm to minimize the error between the actual output of the c-ANN network and the ideal symbol at the transmitter, thus obtaining the equalized data.

[0101] In this embodiment, the input features S of the c-ANN are obtained through processing. m Then, it is fed into the input layer of the network, and the PS signal of the transmitter Tx is used as the actual output z of the c-ANN network, i.e., the label. The c-ANN network consists of an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer connected in sequence, which are responsible for feature input, feature extraction, and equalization signal output, respectively.

[0102] To verify the effectiveness of this invention, this embodiment verifies it from the perspective of a simulation system:

[0103] The block diagram of the DP-CS NFDM system built based on cross-simulation using VPI Transmission Maker 11.2 and MATLAB is shown below. Figure 3 As shown. Among them. Figure 3 (a) illustrates the specific DSP process at the transmitter. The PS signal is first modulated by OFDM to generate NFDM symbols, and then Γ is used... b The transformation is converted to the scattering coefficient, and T is reduced through dispersion pre-compensation techniques. GI Next, the INFT algorithm is used to generate the time-domain signal, where the effective time of the time-domain signal is set to 3.2 ns, the normalized time parameter is 1 ns, and T... GI The wavelength is 4.8 ns, and the bandwidth is 40 GHz. Finally, an I / Q modulator is used to perform electro-optical conversion to generate an optical signal, which is then fed into the optical fiber channel for transmission at a power calculated using denormalization. In the optical fiber link, the fiber span is set to 80 km, and the loss coefficient, dispersion coefficient, and nonlinear coefficient are set to 0.2 dB / km, 16.8 ps / (nm×km), and 1.3 W, respectively. -1 km -1 The EDFA is used to compensate for fiber loss, but it introduces ASE noise, with noise figures (NF) set to 4dB, 5dB, and 6dB. The optical bandpass filter (OBPF) is used to filter out out-of-band noise, with a bandwidth of 80GHz. The specific DSP flow of the receiver Rx is as follows... Figure 3As shown in (b), after converting the optical signal into an electrical signal using a coherent receiver, the received time-domain signal is first converted into a nonlinear frequency-domain signal using an NFT algorithm. Then, the fiber channel response is removed through a one-step phase-shift operation, followed by Γ... b The Q-factor is calculated by inverse transformation, OFDM decoding, and equalization via c-ANN network, followed by symbol demapping.

[0104] The parameters of the c-ANN network are set as follows: A c-ANN regression task is implemented using Python. The c-ANN consists of an input layer, one hidden layer, and an output layer. The hidden layer has 16 nodes, and the activation function is modReLU. The weight matrix is ​​optimized by minimizing the mean squared error (MSE) using the backpropagation (BP) algorithm. The noise equalization process of the c-ANN network is as follows: Figure 3 As shown in (c), during training, the received current symbol and its six adjacent symbols are taken as a sample and used as the input feature of the c-ANN. The PS signal of the transmitter Tx is used as the label of the c-ANN network. Datasets are typically divided into three categories: training, validation, and testing. The training dataset is used to fit the model, the validation dataset is used to observe whether the model fits well, and finally, the testing dataset is used to evaluate the model performance. In this invention, the dataset contains 128,000 samples, of which 89,600 samples are used to train the c-ANN model. The training and validation datasets are divided in a 3:1 ratio, and the remaining 38,400 samples are input into the training model for testing to obtain the equalized signal.

[0105] The parameters of the real-valued neural network (r-ANN) used for comparison are set as follows: For the fairness of the comparison, the r-ANN consists of an input layer, two hidden layers and an output layer. Each hidden layer has 16 nodes, the activation function is ReLU, the backpropagation algorithm is used, the error function is MSE, and the input features are taken as the current symbol and the 6 symbols on both sides to form a sample. The real part and imaginary part of each symbol are considered separately, and the number of samples is consistent with that of c-ANN.

[0106] In this embodiment, in order to evaluate the performance of the present invention, the following is defined: As a system performance indicator, erfc -1 Let represent the complementary error function, and BER represent the bit error rate. Simulation results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, this invention delivers performance improvements of approximately 1.1 dB and 0.9 dB compared to traditional NFT schemes when the number of subcarriers is 128 and 256, respectively. Overall, this invention demonstrates significant performance advantages across the entire power range for different modulation formats and subcarrier numbers; simulation results are as follows. Figure 5As shown, under the same transmission distance, the Q factor of this invention is significantly higher than that of the traditional NFT scheme. Specifically, when the NF is 5dB and the 7% FEC (forward error correction, FEC) threshold is met, the PS-128QAM6 signal after c-ANN equalization can be transmitted for 1200km, while the uniform 64QAM signal can be transmitted for a maximum of 880km. Simulation results are as follows. Figure 6 As shown, the NFT scheme incorporating PS technology exhibits a significant performance improvement compared to the traditional NFT scheme. Therefore, PS technology has a clear advantage in noise suppression and equalization, while the use of a c-ANN equalizer can further enhance system performance. Under the same performance conditions, this invention outperforms the combined PS and r-ANN scheme.
