A Novel Time Delay Estimation and Calibration Method of TI-ADC Based on a Coherent Optical Communication System

In optical communication systems, coherent detection is a standard method. The received signal enters the digital domain after passing through a time-interleaved analog-to-digital converter (TI-ADC). However, the time delay of the ADC brings noise into the signal, which decreases the signal quality;...
