Abstract :
We demonstrate polarisation-mode-dispersion monitoring, that is chromatic dispersion independent, without fast electronics, for a 40 Gb/s CS-RZ signal. This breakthrough, provided by nonlinear optics, allows dynamic polarisation-mode-dispersion compensation of ultrafast 160 Gb/s networks.
