Lifecycle Management of Optical Networks With Dynamic-Updating Digital Twin: A Hybrid Data-Driven and Physics-Informed Approach
Digital twin (DT) techniques have been proposed for the autonomous operation and lifecycle management of next-generation optical networks. To fully utilize potential capacity and accommodate dynamic services, the DT must dynamically update in sync with deployed optical networks throughout their lifecycle, ensuring low-margin operation. This paper proposes a dynamic-updating DT for the lifecycle management of optical networks, employing a hybrid approach that integrates data-driven and physics-informed techniques for fiber channel modeling. This integration ensures both rapid calculation speed and high physics consistency in optical performance prediction while enabling the dynamic updating of critical physical parameters for DT. The lifecycle management of optical networks, covering accurate performance prediction at the network deployment and dynamic updating during network operation, is demonstrated through simulation in a large-scale network. Up to 100 times speedup in prediction is observed compared to classical numerical methods. In addition, the fiber Raman gain strength, amplifier frequency-dependent gain profile, and connector loss between fiber and amplifier on C and L bands can be simultaneously updated. Moreover, the dynamic-updating DT is verified on a field-trial C+L-band transmission link, achieving a maximum accuracy improvement of 1.4 dB for performance estimation post-device replacement. Overall, the dynamic-updating DT holds promise for driving the next-generation optical networks towards lifecycle autonomous management.
