Study on application of local neighborhood artificial fish swarm algorithm for 40 Gb/s adaptive second-order polarization mode dispersion compensation

摘要

Based on a newly improved artificial fish swarm algorithm- local neighborhood artificial fish swarm algorithm (LNAFSA), we studied its application for adaptive polarization mode dispersion (PMD) compensation. In the adopted local neighborhood structure, each artificial fish only communicated with other five neighboring artificial fishes. Under a simulated 40 Gb/s adaptive second-order PMD compensation for non-return-to-zero and carrier-suppressed return-to-zero formats, the study demonstrated the effectiveness of LNAFSA. In a defined searching process, the eye diagrams showed that the algorithm resulted in an effective compensation effect and produced the maximum consuming time within 300 ms. Much better performance than simplex algorithm and genetic algorithm was also observed. In tracking process, LNAFSA achieved the goal of compensation in about 14 ms.
