Abstract

Methods and systems for superchannel power pre-emphasis may adjust power levels of selected subcarriers of the superchannel. The power pre-emphasis may be performed at a transmission stage using a laser source, a variable optical attenuator, or a wavelength selective switch. The power pre-emphasis may be performed in-line at a reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer node. The power pre-emphasis may be performed using feedback control based on a receiver output. The power pre-emphasis may be performed using feedforward control based on optical path computations.
