ML-based Anomaly Detection in Optical Fiber Monitoring
share
Secure and reliable data communication in optical networks is critical for high-speed internet. We propose a data driven approach for the anomaly detection and faults identification in optical networks to diagnose physical attacks such as fiber breaks and optical tapping. The proposed methods include an autoencoder-based anomaly detection and an attention-based bidirectional gated recurrent unit algorithm for the fiber fault identification and localization. We verify the efficiency of our methods by experiments under various attack scenarios using real operational data.
