Abstract
The complete characterization of 40 Gb/s train of optical pulses is performed in real time using this formula we define an enhancement factor, which explicitly quantifies how efficiently the combination of a pulse shape and a receiver translates the OSNR into the SNR of the electrical current in the receiver.spectrograms. This tool competes very favorably with electronic sampling scopes in term of bandwidth and is used for real-time optimization.
