  • Abstract
    A first practical 4-stage compensator with ~1-ms response time is demonstrated for mitigating first- and second-order PMD on 40-Gbit/s RZ-D(Q)PSK. BER and DOP degradations are significantly improved and a power penalty of <;0.5-dB is achieved at 10-9 BER under 25-ps DGD and 400-ps2 SOPMD.
