DYNAMIC POLARIZATION MODE DISPERSION EMULATOR

摘要

A polarization mode dispersion emulator randomly varies the birefringence of each wave-plate in a biased manner to track the dynamics of polarization mod e dispersion in time and allows for different cable types to be emulated. A Gaussian probability density function is used to create the biased changes. A new wave-plate model is derived to accurately model the birefringence change s of the emulator.
