The present invention discloses an apparatus for use by a coherent receiver, comprising means for: obtaining a first set of coefficients (A+) indicating a first adaptive filter (A) configured to reduce at least part of polarization mode dispersion in an equalizer of the coherent receiver and a second set of coefficients (w+) indicating a second adaptive filter (w) configured to reduce at least part of the inter-symbol interference in the equalizer of the coherent receiver, determining a first updated set of coefficients (A++) and a second updated set of coefficients (w++) based on the first set of coefficients (A+) and the second set of coefficients (w+), wherein the gains of the first updated set of coefficients (A++) have a predetermined level, and wherein, the output of the equalizer based on the first set of coefficients (A+) and the second set of coefficients (w+) is approximately same as the output of the equalizer based on the first updated set of coefficients (A++) and the second updated set of coefficients (w++), providing the first updated set of coefficients (A++) and the second updated set of coefficients (w++) to the first filter and the second filter respectively.
