Abstract:
An optical modulator apparatus may include a plurality of segment drivers, each segment driver having a unique offset voltage and driving but a portion or a segment of an electro-optical modulator. A modulating electrical signal may be applied to the segment drivers via a plurality of electrical delays. Parameters of the segment drivers may be selected so as to approximate a pre-defined transfer function, which may include a linear or a non-linear transfer function.

Claim (Index 47):
The method of  claim 43 , further comprising selecting at least one of the low voltage V low , the high voltage V high , the offset voltage V os , and the threshold voltage V th  for each of the optical modulation segments such that V low  of each successive segment driver is substantially equal to V high  of the immediately preceding segment driver.
