Critical issues that severely hamper high-bit-rate (≥10 Gbit/s/channel) and long-haul optical fiber communication systems include chromatic dispersion, polarization mode dispersion (PMD), and fiber nonlinearities. Optical fiber communication systems are designed such that these …

The heavily distorting channels limit the use of linear equalizers and the use of the nonlinear equalizers becomes admissible. Most nonlinear equalizers, e.g. Voltera type, are usually too complicated to meet real-time processing demands. Neural networks-based equalizers, especi…
