Key Contributions:
- Introduces a semi-analytical model based on finite-length MMSE equalization to capture performance degradation from filtering and noise in coherent DSCM systems.
- Validated against time-domain numerical simulations, achieving high fidelity with maximum SNR estimation error under 0.1 dB.
- Offers a computationally efficient alternative for quick and accurate QoT assessment—benefitting network planners and enabling faster design iterations.
