Highlights:

  • Proposes a weight clustering technique to compress neural network structures used for nonlinear equalization in DSCM systems.
  • Achieves approximately 91% reduction in complexity relative to perturbation-based NN models while preserving strong optical performance.
  • Demonstrates the potential of model compression for deploying real-time, efficient, AI-based equalizers in high-speed optical networks.
