Abstract

A method for receiving optical signals and a device using the same method are provided herein. The method includes the elements of receiving an input signal which includes a signal component and an interference component, wherein the interference component is subcarrier to subcarrier intermixing interference (SSII). The input signal is first converted into a frequency domain signal. The interference component of the input signal is estimated based on a mathematical model according to at least a dynamic chirp component and a static chirp component. The interference component is then cancelled from the input signal to obtain an output signal.
