A system can include an optical receiver. The optical receiver can have an optical delay component and at least one electrical component (e.g., diode, resistor and/or transistor) operatively coupled to (e.g., integrated within) the optical delay component. The system can further include a processing device, operatively coupled to a memory, that can tune an amount of optical delay implemented by the optical delay component in a low loss and/or low dispersion manner. For example, the processing device can adjust, based on optical delay tuning data (e.g., built-in self-test (BIST) data), the at least one electrical component to modify at least one property of the at least one optical delay component.

Implementing low-loss variable optical delay lines

A polarization recovery device comprises an input that receives a first optical signal with unknown polarization and with at least one signal parameter at an initial value, a first output that outputs a second optical signal with known polarization and with the at least one signal parameter at or near the initial value, and a recovery block that generates the second optical signal based on the first optical signal.

Systems, devices, and methods for polarization recovery

A method for communication includes producing an error signal by comparing a driving signal applied to a transmitter to an output signal generated by the transmitter in response to the driving signal. The error signal is decomposed into a linear component having a first memory depth and a nonlinear component having one or more polynomial orders and a second memory depth that is less than the first memory depth. First coefficients, up to the first memory depth, of a linear predistortion kernel are computed for application to the driving signal so as to compensate for the linear component of the error signal. Second coefficients for the one or more polynomial orders, up to the second memory depth, of a nonlinear predistortion kernel are computed so as to compensate for the nonlinear component of the error signal. Operation of the transmitter is optimized using the first and second coefficients.
