Abstract

Systems, devices and techniques for processing an optical signal transmitted from a source over a transmission medium having a length L and performing compensation of non-linear distortions include formulating the compensation as a digital back propagation algorithm by logically dividing the length L into N steps and compensating non-linear distortions for each step as a function of an attenuation adjusting constant parameter that can be selected from a range between 0.3 and 0.7.
