    摘要: A method of controlling an optical transmitter comprising a determining step, a dividing step and a determining step. In the determining step, a full range of an optical signal output from a light-generating device is determined by setting an upper and a lower limit thereof by keeping power of a continuous wave (CW) light constant and varying an electrical driving signal, the optical signal having 2n optical levels where n is an integer. In the dividing step, the full range of the optical signal is divided into sub-ranges each between the neighbor optical levels including the upper limit and the lower limit of the full range, the sub-ranges having preset ratios. In the determining step, electrical levels of the electrical driving signal are determined based on a non-linear transfer characteristic of the light-generating device between the electrical driving signal supplied thereto and the optical signal output therefrom.

    摘要: An optical transmitter that outputs an optical signal with a pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) configuration is disclosed. The optical transmitter includes a light-generating device and a driver. The light-generating device has non-linearity in a transfer characteristic between the electrical driving signal and the optical signal. The driver includes a PAM signal generator, a level controller, and an output driver. The PAM signal generator receives the input electrical signal and outputs a PAM signal. The level controller adjusts the electrical levels of the PAM signal based on the non-linear transfer characteristic of the light-generating device, where the electrical levels set the optical levels of the optical signal with preset ratios. The output driver generates the driving signal by superposing the electrical levels adjusted by the level controller with the PAM signal provided from the PAM signal generator.
