Intelligent Optical Signal Processing in Optical Fiber Communication

Dear Colleagues,

Optical signal processing has emerged as a significant topic in optical fiber communications, further boosting the system capacity. The linear and nonlinear penalties, such as the fiber dispersion, polarization mode dispersion, and fiber nonlinearity, which pose certain limitations for signal transmission, can be readily overcome via the use of advanced signal processing techniques. Intelligent signal processing aims to exploit the upcoming artificial intelligence tide in order to achieve the more efficient and low-cost realization of the signal processing target.

This Special Issue focuses on, but is not limited to, the theory, algorithms, and experimental realization of intelligent optical signal processing, with the aim of sharing the state-of-the-art technology with the broader research community.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
