Training-assisted carrier frequency and phase recovery in digital coherent optical communication systems
A method of recovering frequency and phase associated with an optical carrier signal in an optical communication system includes determining an estimated frequency offset based on a starting training sequence, determining a current frequency offset based on the estimated frequency offset and a current phase during steady-state operation of the optical communication system, determining a current frequency based on the current frequency offset, determining an estimated phase using training symbols inserted into the optical carrier signal, and determining the current phase associated with the optical carrier signal based on the estimated phase and a blind phase search algorithm. A corresponding systems and computer-readable device are also disclosed.
