ABSTRACT:
A method and system for mitigating effects of dispersion in an optical link. A pair of digital sample streams are synthesized representing a target optical E-field having a spectrum selected such that the convolution of the spectrum with itself yields a signal having beat terms that contain phase information of the target optical E-field. A complex optical modulator is driven in accordance with the computed orthogonal sample values.
