Abstract
An optical communication system includes a transmission side system for multi-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) and a corresponding receiver side system, where the transmission side comprises a laser source providing an optical beam, a signal source of electrical signals to be modulated onto the optical beam, and a modulator coupled to the laser source and the signal source to modulate the electrical signals onto the optical beam using amplitude modulation and at least four signal levels, wherein the at least four signal levels are non-uniformly distributed. The receiver side includes a corresponding equalizer which is implemented as a filter of the form fy+fy+f, where y is the incoming signal and the parameters f, fand fare obtained using an adaptive filter.
