Abstract

We proposed a new algorithm to calculate the feedback signal-depolarization rate for the second order PMD compensation. For this, we suggested the correlation between DOP and depolarization rate, and verified its validity through the analysis. With the application of this algorithm, the outage probability at 10^-12 BER decreased by more than three times at averaged DGD value of 30 psec. The simulation results shows that the new algorithm will be useful in enhancing the system performance under severe PMD environment.
