Simultaneous and Independent OSNR and Chromatic Dispersion Monitoring Using Empirical Moments of Asynchronously Sampled Signal Amplitudes

We analytically investigate and derive equations for the empirical moments of asynchronously sampled signal amplitudes as functions of signal power, noise power, and accumulated chromatic dispersion (CD) of a transmission link. The solutions of these equations enable low-cost, simultaneous and indep...
