Electronic Mitigation of Polarization Mode Dispersion

Polarization Mode Dispersion induces polarization dependent propagation. Consequently it generates a multiple imaging of the light pulse carrying the information. Its first order appears as a dual path fading channel of Maxwellian statistics. It results in harmful impairments that prevent the upgrad...
