Abstract
Technology is disclosed for an optical receiver. The optical receiver may include an optical and digital signal processing (ODSP) device. The ODSP device may include a photodiode operable to convert an optical signal to an electrical signal; a digital signal processor operable to generate a digital signal based on the electrical signal; a quantization component operable to generate a quantized output signal based on the digital signal; and a processing device. The processing device may be operable to measure one or more signal statistics of the digital signal; and identify one or more quantization thresholds, wherein the one or more quantization thresholds are computed based on the one or more signal statistics.
