a Q-factor vs. signal-launched power for CD compensation only, DBP, and DNN-based DBP with different computational complexities. (b) Optimized amplitude spectra of linear operators at different stages of 1-step-per-span (StPS) DNN-based DBP at 2.2-dBm signal-launched power. The spectra are vertically shifted from each other for visual clarity, and the signal spectrum is also shown. c Optimized phase response of linear operators at different DNN-based DBP stages at −1.4-dBm signal-launched power. d Optimized ξk at different DNN-based DBP stages at −1.4-dBm signal-launched power. While the optimized phase responses are close to quadratic that resembles CD compensation, the amplitude spectra are “M”-shaped. The optimized ξk is not the same for each step, and exhibits a “U”-shaped structure. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
