ABSTRACT:
An embodiment of the invention is a technique to equalize received samples. An optical to electrical converter (OEC) produces an electrical signal vector representing at least one of amplitude, phase, and polarization information of a modulated optical carrier transmitted through an optical channel with impairments. A signal processor processes the electrical signal vector to compensate the impairments of the optical channel. The signal processor includes at least an adaptive equalizer to generate an equalized output, a decision, and an error. The error is difference between the equalized output and the decision. The adaptive equalizer has an adaptation based on at least the error.
