Abstract
Phase nonlinearities of an optical communications system are monitored by generating a test signal which includes a predetermined property that is uniquely associated with at least one phase nonlinearity of the optical communications system. The predetermined property of the test signal is then detected at a monitoring point of the optical communications system, and used to estimate the associated phase nonlinearity.
