    摘要: The present applies to digital wavelength converters that convert, independently of the format in which optical data may be encoded, an input waveform at a first wavelength to an output waveform at a second wavelength. When operating in an environment where an input waveform has a pilot tone associated thereto, the method and system of the present disclosure allows for the removal of the pilot tone from the input waveform, and also allows for the addition of another pilot to the output waveform.

    摘要: An optical signal receiver tracks local oscillator frequency offset (LOFO) and compensates for the phase distortion introduced in the received signals as a result of utilizing the local oscillator within a coherent detection scheme. This phase distortion is basically a constant phase rotation caused by the LOFO and implementation of the receiver using coherent detection and a digital interferometer instead of a conventional (yet complex) carrier phase estimation or recovery scheme. With an optical receiver implemented in this manner, the requirement of using a precise local oscillator laser with low frequency offset is less important.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses for IQ time skew calibration in a coherent transceiver are described. A four-channel signal is received. A set of inputs is constructed for a 4×8 MIMO equalizer by converting the four-channel signal into four complex inputs that each have a phase shift corresponding to an estimated carrier frequency offset. The set of inputs further includes conjugate replicas of the four complex inputs. Using output from the 4×8 MIMO equalizer, equalizer coefficients are calculated by minimizing error between the MIMO output and a reference signal. Receiver and transmitter IQ skew are estimated using the equalizer coefficients, by converting the equalizer coefficients form the time domain to the frequency domain to determine receiver and transmitter IQ differential phase responses, which are indicative of respective receiver and transmitter IQ skew in the time domain. Skew compensation is then performed.
