Abstract :
An integrated photonic transmitter circuit incorporating an adaptive optical predistortion circuit is demonstrated. Simultaneous distortion cancellation of an electroabsorption modulator and driver amplifier allows improvement in dynamic range while using an efficient but nonlinear driver.
