ABSTRACT:
An optical communication system comprising a transmitter including a data register having a plurality of outputs, each output comprising a separate data channel, a plurality of signal processors, each signal processor corresponding to a data, a plurality of laser modules, each laser module coupled to an output of a corresponding signal processor, wherein each laser module modulates the modified signal from its corresponding data channel onto an optical carrier having a selected wavelength, and an optical multiplexer coupled to an output of all the laser modules. Each signal processor comprises a first input to receive a signal from the corresponding data channel and one or more additional inputs to receive a signal from one or more adjacent data channels, a control input to receive a control signal generated at a receiver based upon a monitored characteristic of the received signal from the corresponding data channel, and logic to modify a characteristic of the signal from the corresponding channel based upon the control signal and the signals from the one or more adjacent data channels.
