Abstract
A system and method for compensating a frequency shift of an optical communication signal may include a tunable receiver laser, a coherent optical receiver that receives the optical communication signal, in which the coherent optical receiver can demodulate the optical communication signal based on an optical output of the tunable receiver laser, a trans-impedance amplifier that receives a demodulated signal from the coherent optical receiver and generates an amplifier output, a laser tracking system that generates a laser tuning signal configured to adjust the optical output of the tunable receiver laser, and a controller including a processor and a memory unit. The memory unit includes instructions that cause the controller to receive the amplifier output, calculate a frequency spectrum of the amplifier output, and determine an offset of a frequency of the optical communication signal from a first frequency of the optical output.
