Span-based Polarization Sensing in Cables Without Reflectors

Polarization-based, multi-span sensing over a link without reflection-back circuits is demonstrated experimentally. It is shown that distributed reflection from Rayleigh scattering can serveas an alternative to reflectors after spatial averaging of received state-of-polarization

Toward Intelligent and Efficient Optical Networks: Performance Modeling, Co-existence, and Field Trials

Optical transmission networks require intelligent traffic adaptation and efficient spectrum usage. We present scalable machine learning (ML) methods for network performance modeling, andfield trials of distributed fiber sensing and classic optical network traffic coexistence.
