A Real-Time Closed-Form Model for Nonlinearity Modeling in Ultra-Wide-Band Optical Fiber Links Accounting for Inter-channel Stimulated Raman Scattering and Co-Propagating Raman Amplification

In this paper, we present a novel closed-form model (CFM) for accurate and fast evaluation of nonlinear interference in modern ultrawideband coherent optical fiber communication systems. Starting from the Gaussian noise model (GN model), using reasonable approximations and machine-learning optimized improvements, we achieve an accurate CFM capable of handling ultrawide band (C+L or wider) optical fiber systems in the presence of Inter-channel Stimulated Raman Scattering (ISRS) and forward-pumped Raman amplification.
