Title: Eye-diagram-based Joint Monitoring of Coherent Channel Using Deep Learning
Abstract: 
With the continuous advancement of the artificial intelligence technology, machine learning is widely used in various fields. We review the application of optical performance monitoring (OPM) in optical communications system, and its latest evolution with machine learning techniques.

Nowadays, coherent-based wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) technology is the de-facto standard for Tb/s and beyond optical transport networks. With increased system complexity, it can significantly improve the data-carrying capacity. In such a system, there are more performance parameters that need to be monitored in real-time.

In this talk, we review our recent demonstration on eye-diagram-based joint monitoring of coherent channel using deep learning. Unlike many other technologies, low-speed eye diagram measurement can significantly reduce the hardware implementation cost and complexity. Besides modulation format identification (MFI), experiments also show that the proposed technique can simultaneously determine the optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR), roll-off factor (ROF), and timing skew of a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) transmitter with high accuracy.
