Abstract
Generation of data streams for two dimensions comprises compensation for a nonideal response of a signal path in an optical communications signal. The data streams are converted to analog electrical signals which drive two dimensions of an electrical-to-optical converter. Output of the electrical-to-optical converter is coupled through an optical link to an optical-to-electrical converter.
