Abstract:
In some embodiments, a non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor comprises code to cause the processor to determine, during a calibration of a coherent optical transmitter, a set of parameters associated with each tributary channel by sending a first signal to a digital signal processor (DSP) to adjust a scale factor of that tributary channel. The scale factor is associated with a tap characteristic of a finite impulse response (FIR) filter of the DSP. The code further causes the processor to determine a power imbalance between two tributary channels based on the set of parameters associated with each tributary channel. The code further causes the processor to send a second signal to the coherent optical transmitter to adjust a set of operational settings of the coherent optical transmitter based on the power imbalance and the set of parameters associated with each tributary channel.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein:\n the operational setting is a first operational setting; the method further includes receiving a third signal from an optical receiver to adjust a second operational setting of the optical transmitter to reduce the power imbalance between the first tributary channel and the second tributary channel; and the optical receiver is configured to receive an optical signal outputted from the optical transmitter.
