Abstract
An optical device may include a transmitter to provide an optical signal via a set of channels and a modulator. The optical device may include two or more tributary modulators to modulate the set of channels with a training pattern. The optical device may include a set of optics to alter a first channel relative to a second channel of the set of channels. The optical device may include a detector to determine an optical power measurement of the optical signal after the first channel is altered relative to the second channel. The optical device may include a controller to generate a control signal to adjust a power balance associated with the optical signal based on the optical power measurement. The optical device may include a controller to provide the control signal to a tributary modulator to alter a modulation of the optical signal.
