    Abstract: The present invention relates to performing chromatic dispersion estimation in a receiver of an optical communication system. Here, the signal received by the receiver includes frames, each comprising a training portion and a data portion. The training portion comprises a plurality of identical pattern sequences. Different settings are applied to an equalizer to generate a plurality of equalized signals from at least one of the received frames. Then, at least one correlation value is calculated between a first pattern sequence and a second pattern sequence of the equalized signals and a final correlation value is derived from the respective correlation values. The setting of the equalizer corresponding to the equalized signal providing the highest final correlation value is selected to provide the chromatic dispersion estimation.

    Abstract: Embodiments are provided to improve direct detection for optical transmissions. In an embodiment, a method by a transmitter for a direct detection system includes driving, via a drive voltage, a single-side band (SSB) signal at an optical modulator on a first optical path of the transmitter. The SSB signal is sufficiently linear with respect to the drive voltage for allowing direct detection at a receiver. The method further includes generating a DC carrier signal on a second path of the transmitter. The SSB signal is combined with the DC carrier signal at an output of the transmitter.

    Abstract: A distortion compensation circuit compensates for the distortions generated by the dispersion-slope of an optical component and the frequency chirp of an optical transmitter. The dispersion compensation circuitry can be utilized in the optical transmitter, the optical receiver and/or at some intermediate point in a fiber-optic network. One embodiment of the compensation circuit utilizes a primary electrical signal path that receives at least a portion of the input signal and a delay line; and a secondary signal path in parallel to the primary path that receives at least a portion of the input signal and including: an amplifier with an electrical current gain that is proportional to the dispersion-slope of the optical component, an optional RF attenuator, an optional delay line, a "squarer" circuit, and a "differentiator" circuit. Another embodiment of the disclosure performs simultaneous, and independent, compensation of second-order distortions generated by both the dispersion-slope of a first optical component and the dispersion of a second optical component. Other embodiments of the disclosure perform adaptive predistortion for compensation of distortions generated by the dispersion-slope of a first optical component and the dispersion of a second optical component to maintain optimum compensation even if the dispersion properties of the optical components change with time.
