Abstract
Transversal equalization is used to obtain broadband linearization of photonic modulation. A photonic link comprises a signal path and a feed-forward path. The feed-forward path includes an optical linearizer and a transversal equalizer connected with the optical linearizer. In this way, amplitude and phase matching of the error in the signal path is obtained over a wide bandwidth. This, in turn, enables a broadband enhancement of the link's spur free dynamic range (SFDR).
