Abstract
In an optical communications system including a transmitter (laser 1) and a receiver, with an optical amplifier (3) and an optical filter (4) therebetween, the position of the passband of the optical filter (4) is adjusted automatically in dependence on a received pilot carrier signal frequency transmitted with the data. This facilitates initial selection of transmitter laser (1) and avoids the need for transmitter laser frequency stabilisation. The optical filter acquires and tracks the optical carrier used by the transmitter.
