Abstract
Systems and methods of compensating for the delay asymmetry of coherent optical modems in a packet optical network include measuring fill levels of one or more queues each including an elastic First-In-First-Out (FIFO) circuit used in a transport mapping scheme, wherein the transport mapping scheme is one or more of client mapping to Optical Transport Unit (OTU) and OTU mapping to Flexible OTN (FlexO); and performing adjustments in a clock based in part on the measured fill levels, wherein the adjustments are configured to reduce a Time Error (TE) in the packet network based on delay asymmetry between two nodes.
