Abstract:
The present invention relates to telecommunication techniques and integrated circuit (IC) devices. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide an off-quadrature modulation system. Once an off-quadrature modulation position is determined, a ratio between DC power transfer amplitude and dither tone amplitude for a modulator is as a control loop target to stabilize off-quadrature modulation. DC power transfer amplitude is obtained by measuring and sampling the output of an optical modulator. Dither tone amplitude is obtained by measuring and sampling the modulator output and performing calculation using the optical modulator output values and corresponding dither tone values. There are other embodiments as well.

Claim (Index 17):
An off-quadrature biased optical modulation system comprising:\n a dither tone generator configured to generate a dither one component in a driving signal; a memory for storing a lookup table, the lookup table comprising an array of n sine values based on a plurality of n dither frequencies; a modulator being configured to generate a dump signal; an analog to digital converter (ADC) being configured to sample the dump signal to generate n dump samples; a microcontroller unit configured to calculate a measured ratio based a first sum and the second sum, the first sum being based on the n dump samples, the second sum being at least based on the n dump samples and the array of n sine values; and a control module configured to adjust one or more output parameters using at least the measured ratio and a predetermined ratio.
