Abstract
A system may receive a group of electrical signals from an optical receiver and via a group of channels; identify a first signal, as a reference signal, that is received via a first channel; and identify a second signal, as an orthogonal signal, that is received via a second channel, where the second signal may be orthogonal to the first signal. The system may further measure a group of skew values based on a difference in arrival times between one or more other signals, of the group of electrical signals, and the reference signal or the orthogonal signal; generate a group of de-skew values based on at least a portion of the skew values; and transmit the de-skew values, to the optical receiver, where transmitting the de-skew values allows the optical receiver to de-skew signals on the group of channels.
