A simple method of compensating the DC drift of LiNbO3 Mach-Zehnder intensity modulators for very high speed optical transmission systems is proposed. This method adds low frequency perturbation to the modulator driving signal, and controls the bias voltage using the detected envelope of the modulator output signal. The control circuit is successfully demonstrated to work with less than a 0. 1-dB power penalty.
