Abstract
We study the effect of higher order polarisation mode dispersion (PMD) and show that using a bandwidth reduced modulation format-such as duobinary coding-is an effective way to decrease signal distortions caused by (residual) higher order PMD. Our experimental results link the actual higher order PMD to the observed system penalty and therefore a quantitative evaluation is possible.
