  We analyze an AC-driven dimer chain connected to a strongly biased electron
source and drain. It turns out that the resulting transport exhibits
fingerprints of topology. They are particularly visible in the driving-induced
current suppression and the Fano factor. Thus, shot noise measurements provide
a topological phase diagram as a function of the driving parameters. The
observed phenomena can be explained physically by a mapping to an effective
time-independent Hamiltonian and the emergence of edge states. Moreover, by
considering quantum dissipation, we determine the requirements for the
coherence properties in a possible experimental realization. For the
computation of the zero-frequency noise, we develop an efficient method based
on matrix-continued fractions.
