Abstract
A method of controlling a parameter in the generation of a coherent optical signal, the method comprising the steps of: receiving a set of signal samples relating to detection of a coherent optical signal; transforming the set of signal samples into a set of spectrum samples in the frequency domain, the set of spectrum samples being an estimation of the spectrum of the coherent optical signal; calculating at least one feedback variable based on the spectrum samples; and adjusting the parameter based on the at least one feedback variable.
