In a method of compensating polarization dependent loss (PDL) in a wave division multiplex (WDM) optical communications system, a performance parameter is monitored at a predetermined monitoring point. The performance parameter is indicative of respective channel PDL for each one of a plurality of channels of the optical communications system. A error function is calculated as a function of wavelength across a wavelength spectrum of interest, using the measured performance parameter values. Finally, a broadband PDL compensator is controlled based on the calculated error function.
