Abstract

We demonstrated a simultaneous residual chromatic dispersion (CD) and optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) monitoring method for non-return-to-zero on-off keying signals by employing the delay-tap sampling and image processing techniques. Delay-tap sampling scatter plots reflect the signal pulse shape change and image processing can extract the contour of the scatter plots. Numerical simulation shows that the OSNR monitoring range is from 12 to 32 dB with <0.5  dB error and the CD monitoring range is from 0 to 1360 ps/nm. In the experiment, the OSNR monitoring range is from 14 to 30 dB and the CD monitoring range can go up to 1275 ps/nm.
