Abstract

A laser drive circuit compensates for laser diode dynamics. A compensation value is determined from a sum of weighted basis functions. The basis functions may be a function of current desired optical powers and/or past desired optical powers. The weights may be updated periodically based at least in part on accumulated basis function outputs and measured optical powers.
