Signal Degradation and Excess Insertion Loss of Optical Mach–Zehnder Modulators in the Presence of Electronic Dispersion Compensation

Mach–Zehnder (MZ) modulators are widely used in optical transmitters to generate high-speed optical signals. With electronic dispersion compensation (EDC), the driving signals to MZ modulators change from digital to analog, or continuous waveforms. Consequently, there is signal degradatio...
