Abstract:
1. An apparatus for estimating intra-channel nonlinear damage, comprising: a first determining unit configured to determine a nonlinear phase shift weighting dispersion distribution function of an optical fiber transmission link according to a parameter of the optical fiber transmission link; a segmenting unit configured to segment the nonlinear phase shift weighting dispersion distribution function of the optical fiber transmission link into at least one rectangle; a calculating unit configured to respectively calculate a nonlinear perturbation coefficient of each rectangle in the at least one rectangle, and perform summation on nonlinear perturbation coefficients of all rectangles, to obtain a nonlinear perturbation coefficient of the optical fiber transmission link; and a second determining unit configured to determine intra-channel nonlinear damage of the optical fiber transmission link according to the nonlinear perturbation coefficient of the optical fiber transmission link.
