A QoT Estimation Method using EGN-assisted Machine Learning for Network Planning Applications

Networking and Internet Architecture 2021-12-09 v1

Abstract

An ML model based on precomputed per-channel SCI is proposed. Due to its superior accuracy over closed-form GN, an average SNR gain of 1.1 dB in an end-to-end link optimization and a 40% reduction in required lightpaths to meet traffic requests in a network planning scenario are shown.
