A fiber channel modeling method based on complex neural networks
摘要
Channel modeling plays a pivotal role in the field of communications, particularly in the optical communication networks of backbone communication systems. Recent studies on optical channel modeling have utilized real-valued neural network (RVNN) to extract channel characteristics, an approach that does not fully account for the properties of complex-valued signals. To address this limitation, we propose a complex-valued conditional generative adversarial network (C-CGAN) in this paper to comprehensively learn channel features. We describe the architecture and parameters of the C-CGAN and employ complex-valued windowed construction for input data. Subsequently, we evaluate the model’s accuracy and generalization capabilities using the normalized mean square error (NMSE) and benchmark it against the real-valued conditional generative adversarial network (R-CGAN). The results indicate that the C-CGAN achieves better generalization across various scenarios, including different dataset sizes, noise levels, and input feature complexities, while also exhibiting a more stable training process. The NMSE achieved by the C-CGAN remains below
