Combined with particle-swarm optimisation, the capacity of a hybrid-amplified 10.5-THz 117x57-km link was maximised, increasing throughput by 12\% versus an EDFAs-only configuration.}, url = {https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10526963}, author = {Buglia, H and Sillekens, E and Galdino, L and Killey, R and Bayvel, P}, keywords = {Noise, Predictive models, Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, Throughput, Prediction algorithms, Real-time systems, Optical fiber communication} }
