Abstract

This disclosure describes the Fast Chromatic Dispersion Estimation (FCDE) techniques which corrects for chromatic dispersion in high data rate optical communications systems such as some coherent optical communications systems. FCDE may utilize transform such as fast-Fourier transforms to estimate the chromatic dispersion. From an estimation of the chromatic dispersion, the techniques may determine filter tap coefficients for compensating the chromatic dispersion.
