    摘要: A compensation circuit for reducing intersymbol interference (ISI) products within an electrical data signal corresponding to a detected data signal received via a signal transmission medium provides for selective application of compensation to individual, discrete data signal components. According to one embodiment, one circuit branch processes the electrical data signal to substantially remove one distinct signal component representing an ISI product of some portion of the data symbol sequence. A second circuit branch approximately duplicates an ISI product of another portion of the data symbol sequence for removal by subtraction within a signal combiner from the compensated signal provided by the first circuit branch. A third circuit branch approximately duplicates an ISI product of still another portion of the data symbol sequence also for removal by subtraction within the signal combiner from the compensated signal provided by the first circuit branch.

    摘要: A crosstalk compensation engine for reducing signal crosstalk effects within a data signal. Demultiplexed data signals corresponding to multiplexed data signals received via a signal transmission medium are processed to significantly reduce one or more signal crosstalk products related to one or more interactions among the multiplexed data signals within the signal transmission medium. Such signal crosstalk products include those resulting from dense wavelength-division mutiplexing of the data signals used to provide the multiplexed data signals, four-wave mixing among the multiplexed data signals within the signal transmission medium, and cross-phase modulation among the multiplexed data signals within the signal transmission medium.

    摘要: A waveform shaping method comprises: (a) receiving link-distorted signal pulses; (b) passing the link-distorted signal pulses through a series of differential amplifiers each have independently tunable, base gains, peak boost gains, boost frequencies and boost bandwidths; and (c) adjusting one or more of the base gains, peak boost gains, boost frequencies and boost bandwidths of the series of differential amplifiers so as to realize a selective and progressive waveform re-shaping of the link-distorted signal pulses. In one embodiment, each amplifier in the series has first and second transistors with respective first and second drain nodes through which sum-constant currents respectively flow; and first and second, variable drain impedances (Zd1, Zd2) coupled to the first and second drain nodes, where each of the variable drain impedances has a non-negligible inductance (L), a non-negligible capacitance (C) and a non-negligible resistance (R), and where at least two of the R, L and C factors are programmably and independently adjustable so that an input voltage versus output voltage transfer function of the differential amplifier can exhibit a peak gain at a corresponding peak boost frequency which is greater than a base gain of the differential amplifier at 0 Hz.
