Modelling of the Linewidth Enhancement Factor with the Use of Radial Basis Function Network

Summary A different method based on the use of radial basis function network for modelling the linewidth enhancement factor of laser diodes is presented. The learning is achieved using a clustering algorithmfor determining the cluster centres and the extended delta-bar-delta algorithm. The linewidth enhancement factor results presented in this article arein very good agreement with the experimental findings reported elsewhere.
