Abstract:
In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a memory and a processor operatively coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to send a stimulus signal at a frequency that corresponds to a first frequency value to a tributary channel of a coherent optical transponder. The processor is configured to adjust an amplitude of the stimulus signal and receive a first plurality of output optical power values. The processor is configured to adjust the frequency of the stimulus signal and receive a second plurality of output optical power values. The processor is configured to determine a bandwidth limitation and a modulation nonlinearity, and then send a first signal to a first filter to reduce the bandwidth limitation and a second signal to a second filter to reduce the modulation nonlinearity.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein:\n the sending the signal to at least one of the plurality of electronic components or the plurality of optical components of the coherent optical transponder includes at least one of:\n sending a first signal to a first filter of the coherent optical transponder to reduce the bandwidth limitation associated with the tributary channel, \n sending a second signal to a second filter of the coherent optical transponder to reduce the modulation nonlinearity associated with the tributary channel, or \n sending a third signal to a third filter to reduce the modulation nonlinearity from an optical modulator of the coherent optical transponder.
