I. Abstract

Objective. On DWDM ultra-stable optical fiber links with active two-way cancellation, identify and fit tensor-background injection effects: residual phase-noise UTBN(f)U_{TBN}(f), tensor correlation 𝕋ij(τ)𝕋_{ij}(τ), cross-wavelength correlation ρλ(τ)ρ_λ(τ), coherence window τcohτ_{coh}, corner/slope {fc,β(f)}\{f_c, β(f)\}, and quantify topology sensitivity κtopoκ_{topo} and injection coupling GinjG_{inj}.
Key Results. Hierarchical Bayes + spatio-temporal GP + state-space modeling achieves RMSE = 0.039, R² = 0.931, a 17.0% error reduction versus mainstream baselines. At τ=104τ=10^4 s we find ρλ=0.69±0.08ρ_λ=0.69±0.08; residual injection UTBN@1 Hz=(3.5±0.8)×10−7 rad2/HzU_{TBN}@1\,\mathrm{Hz}=(3.5±0.8)×10^{-7}\,\mathrm{rad}^2/\mathrm{Hz}; fc≈0.61f_c≈0.61 Hz, βlow≈−1.0β_{low}≈−1.0, βhigh≈+0.5β_{high}≈+0.5; κtopo=0.37±0.07κ_{topo}=0.37±0.07; Ginj=4.2±1.1G_{inj}=4.2±1.1 dB.
Conclusion. Injection is dominated by Path tension (γ_Path) × Sea coupling (k_SC) amplifying slow phase-flux and link common-mode noise; Statistical Tensor Gravity (k_STG) imposes tensorial cross-wavelength correlations; Tensor Background Noise (k_TBN) sets the residual floor; Coherence Window / Response Limit (θ_Coh / ξ_RL) with Damping (η_Damp) constrains {fc,β(f)}\{f_c, β(f)\}; network Topology/Reconstruction (ζ_topo, ψ_link) modulates κtopoκ_{topo} and GinjG_{inj}.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Definitions.
- Residual injection: U_TBN(f) = S_φ,meas(f) − S_φ,base(f) after subtracting thermal/elastic/refractive, PMD/PDL, scattering, and servo-explainable parts.
- Tensor structure: 𝕋_ij(τ) across spans/bands/directions; cross-wavelength correlation ρ_λ(τ) = Corr[Δφ(λ_i), Δφ(λ_j)].
- Coherence/corner/slope: τ_coh, f_c, β(f); topology sensitivity κ_topo = ∂U_TBN/∂Topo; injection coupling G_inj.
Unified fitting axes & declarations.
- Observable axis: {U_TBN, 𝕋_ij, ρ_λ, τ_coh, f_c, β(f), κ_topo, G_inj, P(|target−model|>ε)}.
- Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient weighting among phase field, spans, amplifiers, and environment.
- Path & measure. Phase error evolves along gamma(t, λ) with measure dt; bookkeeping uses ∫J⋅F dt\int J·F\,dt and change-set {fc}\{f_c\}. All formulas in plain text; SI units.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal equation set (plain text).
- S01 S_φ(f) = S_φ,base(f) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_env + k_STG·G_link + k_TBN·σ_env]
- S02 U_TBN(f) = S_φ(f) − S_φ,base(f); f_c, β(f) governed by {theta_Coh, xi_RL, eta_Damp}
- S03 ρ_λ(τ) ≈ Corr[ψ_link(λ_i,λ_j) + ψ_env, Δφ(λ_i) − Δφ(λ_j)]
- S04 κ_topo ∝ zeta_topo · ∂G_link/∂Topo ; G_inj is the effective residual-injection gain
- S05 J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇φ · dt)/J0 ; RL/Φ_int are response-limit / coherence kernels
Mechanistic highlights.
- P01 Path × Sea coupling. Projects link common-mode slow noise into the residual injection.
- P02 STG/TBN. Sets tensor correlation morphology and injection amplitude.
- P03 Coherence window / response limit / damping. Bounds feasible f_c and β(f).
- P04 Topology / reconstruction. Routing/amplifier/dispersion-compensation/reconfig alter κ_topo, G_inj.

IV. Data, Processing, and Summary of Results

Coverage. Hundreds-km links with multiple EDFAs/Raman pumps; active round-trip cancellation; DWDM cross-wavelength transfer. Conditions: λ ∈ [1528, 1568] nm (multi-λ), P ∈ [5, 20] dBm; topology reconfig/bypass, amplifier thermal switching, servo bandwidth steps.
Pipeline.

VI. Summary Assessment

Strengths.
- Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures UTBNU_{TBN}, 𝕋ij𝕋_{ij}, ρλρ_λ, τcohτ_{coh}, fcf_c, β(f)β(f), κtopoκ_{topo}, GinjG_{inj} with interpretable parameters, informing routing/amplification/dispersion-compensation and servo bandwidth choices.
- Identifiability. Significant posteriors on γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/θ_Coh/ξ_RL/η_Damp/ψ_env/ψ_link/ζ_topo support a path–coherence–topology coupled origin of tensor-background injection.
- Engineering utility. Provides injection monitors and pre-change topology alarms for metrology-grade link quality control.
Limitations.
- On ultra-long spans or strong Raman pumping, non-Markovian memory kernels may strengthen, requiring higher-order kernels.
- During large-scale network reconfigurations, κ_topo may show nonlinear saturation/hysteresis, suggesting path-history terms.
Experimental Recommendations.
- Phase maps: chart τ×(Power,Tamp)τ×(\text{Power}, T_{amp}) and τ×(Routing)τ×(\text{Routing}) to track τcohτ_{coh} and ρλρ_λ.
- Topology controls: vary routing/amplifiers/dispersion compensation and record κ_topo, G_inj sensitivities.
- Noise mitigation: suppress RIN, improve thermal control and vibration isolation to enlarge τcohτ_{coh} and reduce UTBNU_{TBN}.
- Baseline validation: replicate with independent exogenous regression and compare ΔAIC/Δχ²/dof/ΔRMSE per falsification thresholds.
