Abstract

Optical transmission systems and methods are provided herein. The system includes a modulator configured to impress an input radio frequency (RF) signal onto an input optical signal to generate a first modulated optical signal and a second modulated optical signal. The system also includes a signal adjustment controller configured to apply a delay to the first modulated optical signal or the second modulated optical signal, interleave the first modulated optical signal and the second modulated optical signal, and transmit the interleaved first and second modulated optical signals as one optical signal. The system also includes a single optical link coupled to the modulator and configured to carry the interleaved first and second modulated optical signals to a receiver.
