Measurement of the dispersion tolerance of optical duobinary with an MLSE-receiver at 10.7 Gb/s

We experimentally demonstrate a significant improvement in the dispersion tolerance of optical duobinary modulation when employing an MLSE instead of a standard receiver. We show that the improvement critically depends on the MLSE design.
