Neural-network-based MDG and Optical SNR Estimation in SDM Transmission

We propose a neural network model for MDG and optical SNR estimation in SDM transmission. We show that the proposed neural-network-based solution estimates MDG and SNR with high accuracy and low complexity from features extracted after DSP.
