Abstract

A linear regression algorithm is applied to a digital-supermode distributed Bragg reflector laser to optimise wavelength switching times. The algorithm uses the output of a digital coherent receiver as feedback to update the pre-emphasis weights applied to the laser section currents. This permits in-situ calculation without manual weight adjustments. The application of this optimiser to a representative subsection of channels indicates this commercially available laser can rapidly reconfigure over 6.05 THz, supporting 122 channels, in less than 10 ns.
