The Effect of Polarization Mode Dispersion on High Bit-rate Optical Communication Systems

摘要

Based on the 10,000 run samples and least square extrapolation method by dint of presented statistical simulation model, the first-order and higher-order PMD tolerance of 40Gbit/s and 160Gbit/s single channel systems is discussed. The results show that the upper PMD limit value of un-compensation and only first-order compensation for 40Gbit/s and 160Gbit/s systems is 3ps and 0.7ps, 7.2ps and l.Sps, respectively.
