  • Abstract
    We present an analytical expression relating the output state of polarization and the first-order PMD vector. Also derived is a new general relation to study the effect of first-order PMD on different pulse shapes. Moreover, novel derivations for power penalty and its average value, based on the expression are presented. Measured experiment results support the theoretical analysis.
