In some aspects, the disclosure is directed to methods and systems for controlling periodic jitter arising from a phase interpolator (PI). A receiver can receive incoming data. A fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL) can receive a reference clock. Measurement circuitry can measure a parts per million (PPM) offset between the incoming data and the reference clock, of a PI. The fractional-N PLL can restrict jitter arising from the PI, to frequencies within a predefined bandwidth, by tuning a center frequency of the fractional-N PLL to reduce the PPM offset of the PI.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for improving the signal integrity of a differential pair of signals by mitigating a non-balanced channel deficiency. For example, signal integrity may be improved by independently shaping and/or independently controlling the slopes (e.g., the rising edge and/or falling edge) of each signal of a differential pair of signals to counteract the effects caused by non-balanced deficiencies to provide a balanced differential pair of signals (i.e., signals having symmetrical impedances, loads, etc.).

A system for performing in-band reflection analysis in a passive optical network. The system comprises an optical line terminal (OLT) that includes a transceiver for transmitting continuous downstream data modulated on a first wavelength and receiving upstream burst data modulated on a second wavelength, the OLT further includes a receiver for receiving signals reflected from the PON that are modulated on the first wavelength, wherein the continuous downstream data comprises user data and a test data pattern; and a reflection analysis unit for cross-correlating between a time-shifted version of the transmitted test data pattern and the reflected signals, wherein the test data pattern is time-shifted relatively for an optical location to be tested.
