Knowledge Distillation Applied to Optical Channel Equalization: Solving the Parallelization Problem of Recurrent Connection

To circumvent the non-parallelizability of recurrent neural network-based equalizers, we propose knowledge distillation to recast the RNN into a parallelizable feedforward structure. The latter shows 38\% latency decrease, while impacting the Q-factor by only 0.5dB.
