Abstract :
The problem of phase control in a synchronous bit interleaved optical transmission system network is addressed theoretically and a practical implementation demonstrated. Control information is derived from the amplitude and phase of a discrete frequency component of the interleaved data spectrum, and it is shown that control is possible with a system penalty of less than 0.2 dB
