Signal and Backward Raman Pump Power Optimization in Multi-Band Systems Using Fast Power Profile Estimation

Yanchao Jiang, Jad Sarkis, Stefano Piciaccia +2

This paper presents an efficient numerical method for calculating spatial power profiles of both signal and pump with significant Interchannel Stimulated Raman Scattering (ISRS) an…

Launch Power Optimization in super-(C+L) Systems

Yanchao Jiang, Dario Pilori, Antonino Nespola +5

We investigate launch power optimization in 12-THz super-(C+L) systems, using iterative performance evaluation enabled by NLI closed-form models. We find that, despite the strong I…

Optimization of Long-Haul C+L+S Systems by means of a Closed Form EGN Model

Y. Jiang, J. Sarkis, A. Nespola +5

We investigate C+L+S long-haul systems using a closed-form GN/EGN non-linearity model. We perform accurate launch power and Raman pump optimization. We show a potential 4x throughp…

Optimum Launch Power in Multiband Systems

Yanchao Jiang, Fabrizio Forghieri, Stefano Piciaccia +2

We investigate the residual throughput penalty due to ISRS, after power-optimization, in multiband systems. We show it to be mild. We also revisit the launch power optimization 3-d…

Closed-Form EGN Model with Comprehensive Raman Support

Yanchao Jiang, Antonino Nespola, Stefano Straullu +5

We present a series of experiments testing the accuracy of a new closed-form multiband EGN model, carried out over a full-Raman 9-span C+L link. Transmission regimes ranged from li…

Gain profile characterization and modelling for an accurate EDFA abstraction and control

Giacomo Borraccini, Vittorio Gatto, Andrea D'Amico +6

Relying on a two-measurement characterization phase, a gain profile model for dual-stage EDFAs is presented and validated in full spectral load condition. It precisely reproduces t…

Accurate Closed-Form Real-Time EGN Model Formula Leveraging Machine-Learning over 8500 Thoroughly Randomized Full C-Band Systems

Mahdi Ranjbar Zefreh, Fabrizio Forghieri, Stefano Piciaccia +1

We derived an approximate non-linear interference (NLI) closed-form model (CFM), capable of handling a very broad range of optical WDM system scenarios. We tested the CFM over 8500…

A GN/EGN-Model Real-Time Closed-Form Formula Tested over 7,000 Virtual Links

Mahdi Ranjbar Zefreh, Andrea Carena, Fabrizio Forghieri +2

We derived a fully-closed-form GN-model formula and tested its accuracy of over 7,000 highly randomized Cband system scenarios. By further applying a correction that leverages the…
