  • joint osnr monitoring and Modulation Format identification in digital coherent receivers using deep neural networks
    Optics Express, 2017
    Co-Authors: Faisal Nadeem Khan, Kangping Zhong, Xian Zhou, Waled Hussein Alarashi, Alan Pak Tao Lau
    Abstract:

    We experimentally demonstrate the use of deep neural networks (DNNs) in combination with signals’ amplitude histograms (AHs) for simultaneous optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) monitoring and Modulation Format identification (MFI) in digital coherent receivers. The proposed technique automatically extracts OSNR and Modulation Format dependent features of AHs, obtained after constant modulus algorithm (CMA) equalization, and exploits them for the joint estimation of these parameters. Experimental results for 112 Gbps polarization-multiplexed (PM) quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK), 112 Gbps PM 16 quadrature amplitude Modulation (16-QAM), and 240 Gbps PM 64-QAM signals demonstrate OSNR monitoring with mean estimation errors of 1.2 dB, 0.4 dB, and 1 dB, respectively. Similarly, the results for MFI show 100% identification accuracy for all three Modulation Formats. The proposed technique applies deep machine learning algorithms inside standard digital coherent receiver and does not require any additional hardware. Therefore, it is attractive for cost-effective multi-parameter estimation in next-generation elastic optical networks (EONs).

  • signal power distribution based Modulation Format identification for coherent optical receivers
    Optical Fiber Technology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Jie Liu, Changjian Guo, Kangping Zhong, Zhenhua Dong, Alan Pak Tao Lau
    Abstract:

    Abstract A simple Modulation Format identification (MFI) technique based on extracting features from the statistical distributions of normalized signal power is proposed for cognitive coherent optical receivers. The proposed MFI technique requires no prior training and is independent of phase noise or frequency offset. Furthermore, it also performs good identification of the polarization-multiplexed (PM) M-QAM signals even after insufficient equalization of the constant modulus algorithm (CMA). Simulation results demonstrate successful MFI among PM-QPSK, PM-8-QAM, PM-16-QAM, PM-32-QAM and PM-64-QAM signals within OSNR range of practical system. Experimental verification using PM-QPSK/16-QAM/64-QAM signals also confirms the feasibility of the proposed MFI technique after long distance fiber transmission.

  • Modulation Format identification in coherent receivers using deep machine learning
    IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2016
    Co-Authors: Faisal Nadeem Khan, Kangping Zhong, Waled Hussein Alarashi, Alan Pak Tao Lau
    Abstract:

    We propose a novel technique for Modulation Format identification (MFI) in digital coherent receivers by applying deep neural network (DNN) based pattern recognition on signals’ amplitude histograms obtained after constant modulus algorithm (CMA) equalization. Experimental results for three commonly-used Modulation Formats demonstrate MFI with an accuracy of 100% over a wide optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) range. The effects of fiber nonlinearity on the performance of MFI technique are also investigated. The proposed technique is non-data-aided (NDA) and avoids any additional hardware on top of standard digital coherent receiver. Therefore, it is ideal for simple and cost-effective MFI in future heterogeneous optical networks.

  • blind Modulation Format identification for digital coherent receivers
    Optics Express, 2015
    Co-Authors: Syed Muhammad Bilal, Zhenhua Dong, Gabriella Bosco, Alan Pak Tao Lau
    Abstract:

    In this paper, a simple novel digital Modulation Format identification (MFI) scheme for coherent optical systems is proposed. The scheme is based on the evaluation of the peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) of the incoming data samples after analog-to-digital conversion (ADC), chromatic dispersion (CD) and polarization mode demultiplexing (PMD) compensation at the receiver (Rx). Since at a particular optical-signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) value different Modulation Formats have distinct PAPR values, it is possible to identify them. The proposed scheme and the results are analyzed both experimentally and through numerical simulations. The results demonstrate successful identification among four Modulation Formats (MF) commonly used in digital coherent systems.

  • automatic Modulation Format bit rate classification and signal to noise ratio estimation using asynchronous delay tap sampling
    Computers & Electrical Engineering, 2015
    Co-Authors: Faisal Nadeem Khan, Yudi Zhou, Ming Chieng Tan, Waled Hussein Alarashi, Chiew Hoon Teow, Shiu Guong Kiu, Alan Pak Tao Lau
    Abstract:

    A technique for joint Modulation Format and bit-rate classification is proposed.The proposed technique can simultaneously enable non-data-aided SNR estimation.The technique uses asynchronous delay-tap plots with artificial neural networks.The signal classification accuracy is 99.12% and mean SNR estimation error is 0.88?dB.Due to its simplicity, it is attractive for future cognitive wireless networks. We propose a novel technique for automatic classification of Modulation Formats/bit-rates of digitally modulated signals as well as non-data-aided (NDA) estimation of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in wireless networks. The proposed technique exploits Modulation Format, bit-rate, and SNR sensitive features of asynchronous delay-tap plots (ADTPs) for the joint estimation of these parameters. Simulation results validate successful classification of three commonly-used Modulation Formats at two different bit-rates with an overall accuracy of 99.12%. Similarly, in-service estimation of SNR in the range of 0-30 dB is demonstrated with mean estimation error of 0.88 dB. The proposed technique requires low-speed asynchronous sampling of signal envelope and hence, it can enable simple and cost-effective joint Modulation Format/bit-rate classification and NDA SNR estimation in future wireless networks.

  • subtraction clustering based Modulation Format identification in stokes space
    IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2017
    Co-Authors: Pengyu Chen, Jie Liu, Kangping Zhong, Xiaofeng Mai
    Abstract:

    A Stokes-space-based Modulation Format identification (MFI) technique with low complexity is proposed for coherent optical receivers, on the basis of the subtraction clustering algorithm. Successful MFI with good optical signal-to-noise ratio performance can be realized among polarization-multiplexed BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK, 8QAM, and 16QAM signals. Experimental verifications are also performed to prove the feasibility of the proposed MFI in long-distance optical fiber transmission systems.

  • Clustering algorithms for Stokes space Modulation Format recognition.
    Optics express, 2015
    Co-Authors: Ricard Boada, Robert Borkowski, Idelfonso Tafur Monroy
    Abstract:

    Stokes space Modulation Format recognition (Stokes MFR) is a blind method enabling digital coherent receivers to infer Modulation Format inFormation directly from a received polarization-division-multiplexed signal. A crucial part of the Stokes MFR is a clustering algorithm, which largely influences the performance of the detection process, particularly at low signal-to-noise ratios. This paper reports on an extensive study of six different clustering algorithms: k-means, expectation maximization, density-based DBSCAN and OPTICS, spectral clustering and maximum likelihood clustering, used for discriminating between dual polarization: BPSK, QPSK, 8-PSK, 8-QAM, and 16-QAM. We determine essential performance metrics for each clustering algorithm and Modulation Format under test: minimum required signal-to-noise ratio, detection accuracy and algorithm complexity.

  • stokes space based optical Modulation Format recognition for digital coherent receivers
    IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2013
    Co-Authors: Robert Borkowski, Darko Zibar, Antonio Caballero, Valeria Arlunno, Idelfonso Tafur Monroy
    Abstract:

    We present a technique for Modulation Format recognition for heterogeneous reconfigurable optical networks. The method is based on Stokes space signal representation and uses a variational Bayesian expectation maximization machine learning algorithm. Differentiation between diverse common coherent Modulation Formats is successfully demonstrated numerically and experimentally. The proposed method does not require training or a constellation diagram to operate, is insensitive to polarization mixing or frequency offset and can be implemented in any receiver capable of measuring Stokes parameters.
