摘要:
The present document relates to optical communication systems. In particular, the present document relates to high efficiency wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical communication systems. An optical transmitter (210) adapted to transmit an optical signal on an optical wavelength division multiplexed, referred to as WDM, transmission channel (111) to a corresponding optical receiver (230) is described. The optical transmitter (210) comprises a profiling unit (217) adapted to receive information regarding an equalization filter (270) adapted at the corresponding optical receiver (230), based on a first optical signal received from the optical transmitter (210); a pulse shaping filter unit (212) adapted to filter a sequence of data symbols (211) using a pulse shaping filter, thereby yielding a filtered sequence of data symbols (211); wherein a frequency response (404, 405) of the pulse shaping filter depends on the information regarding the equalization filter (270); and a digital-to-optical converter (214, 215 216) adapted to convert the filtered sequence of data symbols (211) into a second optical signal to be transmitted to the optical receiver (230).

Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in a dual-pole optical communications network is compensated for using an adaptive PMD equalizer. The PMD equalizer may include a number of substantially identical filter modules that provide partial outputs which may be combined to form a PMD compensated output. A constant modulus algorithm (CMA)-based equalizer may track PMD across both poles and generates an error signal. The CMA-based equalizer includes a filter bank, and uses an update algorithm and tap/output adjustments based on a difference between combined tap energies and an index, and feedback from a forward error correction code frame synchronizer.

Methods, systems, and devices are described for a low complexity interpolator for use in optical transmission systems. An input receives a digitized version of an optical signal, and provides samples of the received signal to a filter module. The filter module filters the input samples according to a set of filter coefficients provided by a memory. The set of filter coefficients are provided based on the output of a numerically controlled oscillator that provides an output corresponding to an accumulation of partial periods of the first sample rate. Filtered data samples are output to a sample block assembler that receives the data samples, removes filtered data samples where it is indicated that the sample is not valid, and outputs valid filtered data samples at the second sample rate and at a fixed number of samples power output period.

In an optical transmission system which utilizes polarization multiplexing, a receiver includes an adaptive equalizer which is adjusted at turn-up such that two polarization modes at the equalizer output are time aligned. The adaptive equalizer may be reset in a directed manner in response to an indication that one polarization mode is present at both the first and second outputs. Further, the dominant filters taps of the adaptive equalizer are maintained near a middle of a tap index range. The receiver may also include an interpolation function upstream of the adaptive equalizer and a symbol timing error estimation function that feeds a control signal back to the interpolation function, wherein the interpolation function causes the adaptive equalizer function and symbol timing error estimation function to receive an integer number of samples per symbol.

A method and apparatus for simultaneous processing of signals impressed on a horizontal polarization of a light wave and on a vertical polarization of the light wave is provided. In one embodiment, a horizontal polarization pilot tone is impressed on a data signal carried by the horizontal polarization and a vertical polarization pilot tone is impressed on a data signal carried by the vertical polarization. A receiver processes the dual-polarized light wave and converts it to an X channel signal and a Y channel signal. The X and Y channel signals are processed in separate channels to recover a phase and frequency offset between them and a local oscillator. The phase and frequency recovered and frequency de-multiplexed signals are further processed to polarization de-multiplex the data signal carried by the horizontal polarization and the data signal carried by the vertical polarization.

A method for determining symbols PSK modulated on an optical carrier includes interfering a first polarization component of the modulated optical carrier and a reference optical carrier in a first optical mixer and interfering the first polarization component of the modulated optical carrier and the reference with a different relative phase in a second optical mixer. The method also includes sampling the interfered carriers from the first optical mixer to produce first digital sampled values and sampling the interfered carriers from the second optical mixer to produce second digital sampled values. The first and second digital sampled values of a sampling period form a first complex sampling value thereof. The method also includes offsetting a phase of a complex signal value corresponding to each first complex sampling value to correct for a phase error caused by a frequency offset between the modulated and reference optical carriers.
