Abstract
In this paper, a new application of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has been carried out in the field of the optical fiber (OF) communication system. In this theoretical work, the most suitable input channel powers to reduce the disruptive effects of four-wave mixing (FWM) occurring in OF and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise from optical amplifiers are determined with the help of two different particle swarm optimization (PSO) in terms of inertia weight. The figure of merit is the optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) of each channel at the output end of OF. Each of the input channel powers is optimized to maximize the OSNR of the channel with the lowest OSNR. The values obtained by both optimization methods are well good compared to those obtained with equal powers allocation (EPA). The best improvement in OSNR with PSO is obtained as 1.105846 dB (2.762778 %). Moreover, the performances of both algorithms and EPA are also comparatively evaluated in the study.
