Abstract

Methods and apparatus for controlling a bias voltage (20) supplied to an optical modulator that comprises a biasable component configurable to be biased by application of the bias voltage (20) the method comprising: providing a target for the modulator output power; applying to the biasable component a bias voltage (20) that biases the biasable component so that the output power is within a pre defined range of the target; monitoring the output power and if the output power of the modulator is determined to be outside the pre defined range varying the value of the bias voltage (20) to bring the output power back within the pre defined range; and monitoring the optical input to the modulator and if it has been disabled maintaining the bias voltage (20) at its current level for a pre determined length of time that is dependent upon how long the modulator has been operating at quadrature.
