Compensation for polarization mode dispersion and nonlinear birefringence in a multichannel optical fibre system

Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) is stochastic in nature and continues evolving in an unpredictable manner according to the changing environment. Nonlinear birefringence in multichannel systems alters the polarization states of the bits, so that they vary from one bit to the next in a way that is...
