Abstract

A white-box power-lite Volterra-inspired neural network (VINN) equalizer is proposed to solve the problem of complexity discontinuity in a Volterra nonlinear equalizer (VNLE). By adjusting the granularity of the solution space, it conserves computational resources while maintaining nonlinear compensation capability. The performance of VINN is verified on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) in a short-reach intensity modulation and direct detection (IMDD) system, and a 240-Gb/s real-time signal processing rate is achieved. Under the 25% overhead soft-decision forward error correction (SD-FEC) bit error rate (BER) threshold, we realize a record net rate of up to 180 Gb/s based on the FPGA.
