Digital signal processing algorithms for optical communications

We investigate the performance of a traditional equalization technique, adaptive bilinear filter (ABF), for optical communications, and propose a decision-feedback ABF structure. The latter surpasses conventional ABF and exhibits better performance than the Volterra DFE.
