  • Patent number: 12250101
    Abstract: Disclosed is a coherent optical transceiver for optical communication including a transmitter, a receiver, and a PIC. The transmitter includes a DAC and a driver. A modulator in the PIC limits a signal spectrum of an output optical signal within a Nyquist frequency band. The receiver receives an input optical signal from the PIC and converts the input optical signal to an input analog electrical signal. An ADC converts the input analog electrical signal into an input digital electrical signal indicative of the input optical signal at an ADC sampling rate. The DSP includes a linear filter to equalize intersymbol interference, a post filter, and an MLSE to determine symbols corresponding the input optical signal. The driver and the post filter are first order filters with transfer function G(z)=1+az?1, where a is between 0 and 1.
