25、A STANDARDS, 29/04/2008 03:12, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIINTRODUCTION Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) causes an optical pulse to spread in the time domain. This dispersion could impair the performance of a telecommunications system. The effect can be related to differential phase and group veloci

26、ties and corresponding arrival times of different polarization components of the signal. For a sufficiently narrow band source, the effect can be related to a differential group delay (DGD), , between pairs of orthogonally polarized principal states of polarization (PSP) at a given wavelength. For b

27、roadband transmission, the delays bifurcate and result in an output pulse that is spread out in the time domain. In this case, the spreading can be related to the average of DGD values. In long fibre spans, DGD is random in both time and wavelength since it depends on the details of the birefringenc

28、e along the entire fibre length. It is also sensitive to time-dependent temperature and mechanical perturbations on the fibre. For this reason, a useful way to characterize PMD in long fibres is in terms of the expected value, , or the mean DGD over wavelength. In principle, the expected value does

29、not undergo large changes for a given fibre from day to day or from source to source, unlike the parameters or . In addition, is a useful predictor of lightwave system performance. The term “PMD“ is used both in the general sense of two polarization modes having different group velocities, and in th

30、e specific sense of the expected value . The DGD or pulse broadening can be averaged over wavelength, yielding , or time, yielding t, or temperature, yielding T. For most purposes, it is not necessary to distinguish between these various options for obtaining . The coupling length lcis the length of

31、 fibre or cable at which appreciable coupling between the two polarization states begins to occur. If the fibre length L satisfies the condition L scales with fibre length. The corresponding PMD coefficient is “short-length“ PMD coefficient = /L. Fibres in practical systems are nearly always in the

32、L lc, regime and mode coupling is random. If mode coupling is also found to be random, scales with the square root of fibre length, and “long-length“ PMD coefficient = / L EN 60793-1-48:2007 5 Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 29/04/2008 03:12, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIOPTICAL

44、one or another statistical metric. Equation (1) is a linear average value and is used for the specification of optical fibre cable. Equation (2) is the root mean square value which is reported by some methods. Equation (3) can be used to convert one value to the other if the DGDs are assumed to foll

The generalized use of Equation (3) can be verified by statistical analysis. A Maxwell distribu

46、tion may not be the case if there are point sources of elevated birefringence (relative to the rest of the fibre), such as a tight bend, or other phenomena that reduce the mode coupling, such as a continual reduced bend radius with fibre in tension. In these cases, the distribution of the DGDs will

47、begin to resemble the square root of a non-central Chi-square distribution with three degrees of freedom. For these cases, the PMDRMSvalue will generally be larger relative to the PMDAVGthat is indicated in Equation (3). Time domain methods such as Method C and Method A, cosine Fourier transform, wh

48、ich are based on PMDRMS, can use Equation (3) to convert to PMDAVG. If mode coupling is reduced, the resultant reported PMD value from these methods may exceed those that can be reported by the frequency domain measurements that report PMDAVG, such as Method B.
