    Abstract: A system includes a pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) generator configured to generate a first PRBS and a second PRBS and an exclusive-OR logic configured to exclusive-OR the first PRBS and the second PRBS to compute a third PRBS. The system also includes an adder, a correlator and a corrector. The adder adds the third PRBS to input data to compute summed data for transmission of the summed data across the channel. The correlator computes the exclusive-OR of the first PRBS and the second PRBS to reproduce the third PRBS and correlates output data from the channel to the reproduced third PRBS to compute a channel gain error and a channel memory error. The corrector extracts the input data from the output data from the channel using the computed channel gain and memory errors.

    Abstract: Optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) systems, methods and integrated circuits are presented for locating defects in an optical cable or other optical cable, in which a first optical signal is transmitted to the cable and reflections are sampled over a first time range at a first sample rate to identify one or more suspected defect locations, and a second optical signal is transmitted and corresponding reflections are sampled over a second smaller time range at a higher second sample rate to identify at least one defect location of the optical cable for relaxed memory requirements in the OTDR system.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides a circuit. The circuit includes a zone detection block that generates a control signal in response to an input signal. An amplifier generates an amplified signal in response to the input signal and the control signal. An analog to digital converter (ADC) is coupled to the amplifier and samples the amplified signal to generate a digital signal. A digital corrector is coupled to the zone detection block and the ADC, and transforms the digital signal to generate a rectified signal based on the control signal and an error signal. An error estimator is coupled to the zone detection block and receives the rectified signal as a feedback. The error estimator generates the error signal in response to the control signal and the rectified signal.

    Abstract: An optical data transmitter is operable to transmit data other than test data on an optical fiber at a first wavelength and an optical time domain reflectometer is operable to receive data from the optical fiber at the first wavelength and to use the received data at the first wavelength to determine whether a defect exists in the optical fiber.

    Abstract: A direct down-conversion (DDC) front end receiver includes first Q-channel that filters a sum of PRBS and baseband quadrature signals to generate a first filtered quadrature signal, a second Q-channel that filters a difference of the baseband and PRBS signals to generate a second filtered quadrature signal, a first I-channel and a second I-channel, Q-path and I-path PRBS cancellation blocks for cancelling corresponding PRBS components from sum of first and second filtered quadrature signals and sum of first and second filtered inphase signals respectively, Q-path and I-path sum filter estimation blocks for estimating quadrature and inphase sum filter responses. An IQ mismatch compensation filter estimate and tracking block estimates IQ mismatch compensation filter response from estimated quadrature and inphase sum filter responses, and an IQ mismatch compensation filter filters the modified inphase signal with the IQ mismatch compensation filter response, to generate a filter compensated inphase signal.
