Abstract

A device for linearizing non-linear signal transmission characteristics of an optical communication system. A non-linearity introducing part is between an input port and an output port of the optical communication system. The non-linearity introducing part at least partly causes said non-linear signal transmission characteristics. The device is configured for connection between said input port and the non-linearity introducing part, in parallel with the non-linearity introducing part, and comprises a pair of Junction Field Effect Transistors (JFETs), configured to operate in an anti-parallel configuration.
