Abstract :
We proposed polarisation dependent loss (PDL) induced noise reduction method using a band-rejection-filter in a long-haul large-capacity WDM transmission system with synchronous polarization scrambling. We demonstrated the effect in an 8 channel 5.332 Gbit/s WDM transmission experiment using this method
