Abstract
An optical component contains a tunable laser. The tunable laser provides an optical local oscillator signal, and the tunable laser is directly modulated to provide a modulated optical data signal. In this manner we have optimization of the channel wavelength and obtain an optimized electrical and optical bandwidth utilization. Furthermore, a method for data processing is suggested.
