Abstract
The present invention relates to signal processing in an optical receiver, in particular to equalization performed in coherent optical receivers. A multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) equalizer receives and equalizes a plurality of real value signals, for example four sampled electrical baseband tributaries (HI, HQ, VI, VQ). The outputs of the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) equalizer provide equalized real or imaginary components of complex signals. The complex signals including the real and imaginary components are then each and individually equalized to remove chromatic dispersion.
