  • Devices and methods for estimating received signal strengths in passive optical networks on a burst-by-burst basis
    Patent number: 10277314
    Abstract: The received signal strength of individual optical data bursts may be estimated based on the detection of bit patterns within each data burst associated with an amplifier recovery time period. The burst-by-burst estimates can be made faster than existing techniques.
    Type: Grant
