摘要:
In a representative embodiment, a disclosed receiver of an optical multicarrier offset-quadrature-amplitude-modulated (MC-OQAM) signal is configured to track and compensate for the phase error in the local-oscillator (LO) signal with respect to a carrier wave of a modulated subcarrier of the optical MC-OQAM signal by tracking a minimum of a cost function that is sensitive to crosstalk between in-phase and quadrature components of the modulated subcarrier and/or crosstalk between the modulated subcarrier and at least one other modulated subcarrier of the optical MC-OQAM signal. The receiver can operate based on pure feed-forward processing and compensate the phase error in real time and without relying on pilot symbols or a PLL circuit coupled to the LO source.
