    Abstract: A method for creating an optical transmit signal includes creating an electrical discrete multi-tone signal according to digital input data carrying the information to be transmitted, the discrete multi-tone signal having a plurality of electrical partial signals, each electrical partial signal defining a sub-channel. Each electrical partial signal includes a sub-carrier at a predetermined sub-carrier frequency which is modulated according to a dedicated modulation scheme, so that a dedicated portion of the digital input data is included in each sub-channel. The method includes creating an optical signal by using the electrical discrete multi-tone signal as modulating signal for amplitude-modulating the intensity of an optical carrier signal. The method further includes bandpass-filtering the optical signal in order to create an optical single sideband or vestigial sideband transmit signal. An optical transmitter device for creating such an optical transmit signal and to an optical transmitter and receiver device includes a respective optical transmitter device.
