Researchers from the Optical Networks Group win best paper award

20 January 2021

Researchers from the Optical Networks Group have won the 2021 Journal of Lightwave Technology Best Paper Award, honoring the most influential, top-cited original papers published in the journal from 2018.

Journal of Lightwave Technology Best Paper Award

Congratulations to past and present Optical Networks Group members - Dr Boris Karanov, Dr Domanic Lavery and Professor Polina Bayvel - on听their winning publication 鈥楨nd-to-End Deep Learning of Optical Fiber Communications鈥 which reconsiders how optical fibre communication systems are designed using artificial neural networks. This is the third time in four years that members of the Optical Networks Group have won the award.

The team share the JLT best paper accolade with collaborators from Nokia Bell Labs, Georgia Institute of Technology and the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Tokyo. The award will be presented to all co-authors at the 2021 Optical Networking and Communication Conference later this year.

Boris Karanov, first author on the paper and Optical Networks Group alumnus, said:

鈥淭o receive the Best Paper Award from the flagship journal in our community is fantastic recognition for our work 鈥 it鈥檚 a great honour! I believe this work to be an important contribution to the development of AI in optical networks. The outcome is efficient, reconfigurable and versatile transceivers which exploit the potential for high-speed data transmission over optical fibres to a greater extent.鈥

Professor Polina Bayvel, Head of the Optical Networks Group听and Co-Director of the Institute of Communications and Connected Systems听said:

鈥淲e are extremely proud of Boris Karanov and colleagues, and honoured that researchers from the Optical Networks Group are winning this award for an incredible third time, all working in different aspects of optical communications.鈥

The JLT Best Paper Award is given annually by JLT's听Steering and Coordinating Committee to the top-cited original papers published in the journal two to three years prior to the award. The 2021 award considers all original papers published in the Journal of Lightwave Technology in 2018.
