Digital pre-compensation techniques enabling high-capacity bandwidth variable transponders

摘要

Digital pre-compensation techniques are among the enablers for cost-efficient high-capacity transponders. In this paper we describe various methods to mitigate the impairments introduced by state-of-the-art components within modern optical transceivers. Numerical and experimental results validate their performance and benefits. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
