Generational advancements in transistor density have led to extraordinarily powerful devices, from smart phones to high-capacity switches and routers. Coherent digital signal processors (DSPs), the “brains” inside coherent optical modules, have benefitted from Moore’s law, enabling tremendous optical transmission capacity and capabilities that were not possible a decade ago. Adoption of coherent technology has increased dramatically, driven by rising bandwidth demand and technological advancements in DSPs, silicon photonics (SiP), and integration. Coherent DSP technology will…
