1. A method for optical communication, the method comprising:

  • in a transceiver having an input coupler, a demultiplexer, and an amplitude scrambler;

    receiving at least two modulated input optical signals of different polarization via the input coupler;

    communicating the at least two input optical signals to the amplitude scrambler via two waveguides;

    configuring the average optical power in each of the two waveguides utilizing the amplitude scrambler; and

    demultiplexing the at least two optical signals utilizing the demultiplexer, wherein the demultiplexer comprises a plurality of phase modulation sections coupled to outputs of the amplitude scrambler.
