In a system, known digital representations are generated, and test analog signals are generated using the known digital representations. The test analog signals are transmitted using a transmitter of a transmission system. The test analog signals are received using a receiver of the transmission system and used to generate test received digital representations. The test received digital representations are cross-correlated with the known digital representations to generate a mixing matrix. The mixing matrix is inverted to generate a de-mixing matrix, which is applied to subsequent digital data to be encoded onto a signal and transmitted by the transmitter to generate pre-compensated digital data.

Crosstalk correction using pre-compensation

In a system, known digitizer signals (known analog signals or digital representations of known analog signals) are generated. The known digitizer signals are input into digitizers (analog-to-digital converter (ADCs) or digital-to-analog converter (DACs)) to output generated digitizer signals (generated digital representations or generated analog signals). The generated digitizer signals are analyzed in relation to the known digitizer signals to generate coupling coefficients, which can be either scalar quantities or finite-impulse-response (FIR) filter functions. Subsequent digitizer signals are generated. The subsequent digitizer signals are modified using the coupling coefficients to generate modified digitizer signals according to formulae. The modified digitizer signals are used directly as digital representations, or are input to the DACs to output modified analog signals that substantially match subsequent analog signals.

Crosstalk-correction in digitizers using coupling coefficients

In an improved wavelength-division multiplexed system, transmitters modulate carrier signals that are phase or frequency correlated with each other. Receivers retrieve transmission data from the modulated carrier signals by demodulating and equalizing the modulated carrier signals using oscillating signals that are also phase or frequency correlated with each other. Each oscillating signal has a wavelength that matches a wavelength of a corresponding one of the carrier signals. At least one of the receivers generates process information during the demodulating and equalizing. The process information is sent to at least one other receiver, which uses the process information to retrieve at least a portion of the transmission data.

Wavelength-division multiplexing using shared process information

In a nonlinear signal filtering system, a signal having a series of signal samples is filtered. The signal samples are affected by interactions with adjacent signal samples and nonlinear distortions. The system contains a series of alternating linear system elements and nonlinear system elements that are used for mitigation of distortion resulting from the nonlinear distortions with memory effects. The linear system elements can scale each signal sample in the series of signal samples by scaling parameters and sums a plurality of consecutive scaled signal samples, and the nonlinear system elements can transform the output of the linear system elements according to instantaneous nonlinear functions.

Nonlinear signal filtering

In a transmission system, a transmission signal is generated from transmission data. The transmission signal has a series of shaped pulses, such as raised-cosine or root-raised-cosine shaped pulses. A reception signal, based on the transmission signal having passed through a transmission channel, is sampled to generate sampled digital data. The sampled digital data is filtered through a super-Gaussian filter to regenerate the transmission data.
