Abstract:
A high data rate, high sensitivity, low power optical link using low-bandwidth components and low-bandwidth E/O drivers and receivers and method of building same. The method is based on the idea of making the optical part of the link look like a bandwidth limited lossy electrical channel, so that the powerful equalization methods used in the wireline electrical links can be applied to recover the transmitted data in a situation with low bandwidth and/or high loss and strong inter-symbol interference. Linear and non-linear optical channel components, E/O drivers and receivers can benefit from the apparatus and the methods of the invention.

Claim (Index 25):
A system for transmitting an optical signal to an optical carrier in an optical communication network and generating an optical signal at a target data rate, comprising:\n an optical modulator capable of receiving an electrical signal at the target data rate, but only capable of operating at a lower data rate of less than 0.75 of the target data rate, thereby generating inter-symbol interference, and including:\n a modulator optical output port in communication with an optical carrier optical input port, and \n an optical modulator electrical input port; and \n a SerializerDeserializer transmitter (SerDes TX), capable of compensating for the lower data rate optical modulator, and generating an optical signal corresponding to the target data rate, including:\n a SerDes TX electrical input port; and \n a SerDes TX electrical output port in communication with said optical modulator electrical input port.
