Abstract
An optical transmitter may include a transmitter device configured to modulate an optical signal with a data signal. The optical transmitter may include a controller configured to output the data signal to the transmitter device, where the data signal has a modulation amplitude to control a modulation of the optical signal by the transmitter device. The controller may be configured to obtain a feedback signal based on outputting the data signal to the transmitter device. The controller may be configured to determine, based on the feedback signal, an actual modulation index of the optical signal modulated with the data signal. The controller may be configured to adjust the modulation amplitude of the data signal based on a difference between the actual modulation index and a target modulation index.
