Abstract

This paper presents the key design approaches and results in the field of optical impairment distortion compensation by electronic means, as an outcome of the studies and research innovations developed within the COST 291 action. The research topics addressed are related with chromatic dispersion and nonlinearities, with particular reference on FFE/DFE and MLSE-based equalizers as well as with the assistance of different modulation formats. Additionally, the use of electronic compensation in metroaccess applications is examined with reference on studies related with the performance enhancement of DML transmitters.
