Multiple parameter laser power control with automatic compensation

A method for controlling an optic module to maintain a desired optic signal intensity:

• retrieving a default bias value from a memory;
• monitoring one or more parameters of the optic module or optic signal for a change in one or more parameters;
• responsive to a change in the one or more parameters, generating a new bias control signal through the use of one or more equations;
• regardless of the amount of change in the one or more parameters, modifying, through the use of one or more equations, the default bias value based on the bias control signal to create a processed bias signal;
• calculating a modulation value based on the processed bias signal;
• providing the processed bias signal and the modulation value to a driver;
• processing an outgoing signal with the driver based on the processed bias signal and the modulation value to thereby account for changes in the one or more parameters.
