This paper reviews the foundations of the Kramers–Kronig (KK) receiver, a recently
proposed scheme designed to reconstruct a complex-valued signal from the measurement …

The interest for short-reach links of the kind needed for inter-data-center communications
has fueled in recent years the search for transmission schemes that are simultaneously …

The performance of direct-detection transceivers employing electronic dispersion
compensation combined with DSP-based receiver linearization techniques is assessed …

Systems modulating, transporting, and detecting lightwaves have evolved tremendously in
the past four decades. The first systems, which were relying on intensity modulation with …

The feasibility of a single sideband (SSB) PAM4 intensity-modulation and direct-detection
