Abstract: A method is described in which a coherent transmitter transmits a first optical signal having customer data through a fiber optic link. A control signal is provided to the coherent transmitter to cause the coherent transmitter to transmit a second optical signal devoid of customer data. A reflection of the second optical signal is detected via the coherent receiver. Then, a chromatic dispersion of the reflection of the second optical signal is determined and correlated with known parameters indicative of an amount of chromatic dispersion per unit length of the fiber optic link to determine a distance travelled by the second optical signal.

The second parameter may be indicative of a distance travelled by the first optical signal and the second optical signal through one or more fiber optic link having a known first location.

In one example, a RF switch includes a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DDMZM) that can generate a single-sideband (SSB) signal by modulating an input RF signal onto an optical carrier; a tunable phase modulator incorporated loop mirror filter (PM-LMF) that can optically notch filter the SSB signal in response to a control signal; and a photodetector (PD) that can generate a RF output signal based upon the SSB signal. In another example, a method includes modulating an input RF signal onto an optical carrier to generate a SSB signal; notch filtering the SSB signal by a tunable PM-LMF in response to a control signal; and generating a RF output signal based upon the SSB signal.
