Experimental Demonstration of Optoelectronic Equalization for Short-reach Transmission with Reservoir ComputingStenio M. Ranzini, Roman Dischler, Francesco da Ros et al.
A receiver with shared complexity between optical and digital domains is experimentally demonstrated. Reservoir computing is used to equalize up to 4 directly-detected optically filtered spectral slices of a 32 GBd OOK signal over up to 80 km of SMF.
