pi-shifted Sagnac interferometer for characterization of femtosecond first- and second-order polarization mode dispersion

A novel configuration for measuring femtosecond polarization mode dispersion (PMD) with a pi-shifted Sagnac interferometer is studied. The advantages of this configuration include a response that is independent of the orientation of the device under test. This independence allows characterization of the first-and second-order PMD by measurement of the wavelength dependence of the differential group delay and of the orientation of the device's principal states of polarization. The method provides an extension of the dynamic range of the Sagnac interferometer technique to few-femtosecond PMD measurement.     

Polarization-mode dispersion measurement by an optical time-domain reflectometer with polarimetry assuming backscattering by randomly oriented nonspherical particles

In previous work on polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) measurement with an optical time-domain reflectometer with polarimetry (p-OTDR), scatterers were assumed to be a cloud of small spherical particles in a fiber. We have found that the p-OTDR waveforms were fitted well by modified Mueller matrices, assuming scattering by a cloud of nonspherical particles. We realized a PMD measurement based on the p-OTDR Jones matrix eigenanalysis (JME) method. The measured PMD was consistent with that of JME standard measurement with transmission-type polarimetry.

基于双旋延迟器结构的偏振BRDF测量系统的设计

偏振双向反射分布函数（BRDF）不仅可以表示物体散射光辐强度的空间分布情况,还包含了丰富的偏振信息。与标量BRDF相比,偏振BRDF可以更加精确地、全面地表示物体表面的光散射情况。设计了基于双旋延迟器结构的偏振BRDF测量系统,通过同步旋转波片调制入射光和散射光的偏振态,得到一系列变化的光强值,再由光强的Fourier分解系数计算获得样品的偏振BRDF值。系统内设计了一对正交反射镜,用以减小系统中器件后向散射光的影响。通过铝板偏振BRDF的测量,说明了该系统具有较高的准确性。

PMD compensation via real-time phase retrieval from spectral interference

We present a technique for pulse recovery based on real-time measurement of the differential optical phase spectrum from spectral interference patterns. Using a phase retrieval algorithm we can obtain accurate all order polarization mode dispersion (PMD) information for the optical signal and correspondingly compensate the impairment in optical transmission lines. Linear PMD is accurately extracted from measurements, and analytical simulations show recovery of pulses distorted by higher order PMD.     

High-speed polarization mode dispersion measurement using digital polarization-state generators and Mueller matrix method

A polarization-mode dispersion （PMD） measurement system using a pair of polarization-state generators （PSGs） is demonstrated. Based on the saturation characteristics of magneto-optic rotators, the PSG can be digitally controlled, ensuring high-speed and highly repeatable generation of five distinct polarization states. Thus, the PSG can make full use of the advantage of the Mueller matrix method of PMD measurement. The experimental result shows that the system has good measurement repeatability and potential for field testing.     

The Statistical Analysis of Polarziation Mode Dispersion and Filter Control on Dispersion Managed Soliton Links

In this paper, the statistical distributing and magnitude of the first and the second-order PMD (polarization mode dispersion) vectors are evaluated and the filters control PMD effects also are analyzed on DMS (dispersion-managed soliton) links. Firstly, the so-called coarse-step approach is applied to the DMS links. The PMD statistical characteristics of the first and the second-order are simulated and the evolutions of energy and mean square of time displacement of DMS two polarization modes are gotten. Secondly, The DMS transmission of filter control with the conventional model of PMD is analyzed by Varitional method, from which the evolving rules of characteristically DMS parameters are obtained and the stability of filter control the DMS transmission are investigated. The results are not only very useful to simplify the measurement of the second-order PMD and instructively reveal degree of PMD effects in DMS systems, but also give that condition of stability of filter control PMD in DMS systems.     

Study of the stability of polarization mode dispersion in fibre

Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) is the ultimate limitation to high bit-rate fibre communication system. The stability of PMD is very important to its measurement and compensation. This paper puts forward a method to measure the stability of PMD by measuring the stability of the state of polarization (SOP) and introduces the conception of time evolution vector (TEV) of SOP. We observe the fact that the regularity of the principal state of polarization changing with time is the same as other SOPs‘‘, if we neglect the dependence of TEV on wavelength. We also measure the SOP‘‘s stability of some fibres with different lengths, and obtain results of PMD changing with time.

Optical telecom networks as weak quantum measurements with postselection

We show that weak measurements with postselection, proposed in the context of the quantum theory of measurement, naturally appear in the everyday physics of fiber optics telecom networks through polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) and polarization-dependent losses (PDL). Specifically, the PMD leads to a time-resolved discrimination of polarization; the postselection is done in the most natural way: one postselects those photons that have not been lost because of the PDL. The quantum formalism is shown to simplify the calculation of optical networks in the telecom limit of weak PMD.     

Applications of importance sampling to polarization mode dispersion

We describe the application of importance sampling to Monte-Carlo simulations of polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) in optical fibers. The method allows rare PMD events to be simulated much more efficiently than with standard Monte-Carlo methods, thus making it possible to assess the effect of PMD on system outage probabilities at realistic bit error ratios.     

存在偏振相关损失条件下偏振模色散的特点

偏振模色散和偏振相关损失的联合作用，会产生不规则的色散现象，这一点不能直接通过琼斯距阵本征分析法的运用进行描述。由此引出了对偏振模色散和偏振相关损失共存条件下的研究。通过对琼斯本征分析法进行修正，来分析存在偏振相关损失条件下偏振模色散的特征距阵，理论分析表明，由于偏振相关损失的影响，即使在忽略差分损耗频率相关性的条件下，偏振模色散的特征距阵也会产生根本性的变化。     

SOP and PMD monitoring on deployed aerial optical fibres

State of polarization (SOP) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) are stochastic in nature due to changes in the properties of the optical fibres and its positions because of both intrinsic and extrinsic perturbations. With 184 PMD values obtained by use of the FTB-5700 single-ended dispersion analyzer, the predicted theoretical Gaussian fit was obtained with a mean of 0.47 ps and standard deviation of 0.08 ps. This small standard deviation was justification for its accuracy in measuring PMD of aerial optical fibres. A comparison is also made on the accuracy of the GINTY and the FTB-5700 on measurement of PMD of aerial optical fibres with results showing that the latter is more accurate compared to the former. The time scale over which to compensate PMD in aerial optical fibres was determined and it is slightly higher than 400 s; the decorrelation time obtained for SOPs on a particular windy and hot day. This is because the changes of the PMD vector are known to be slower than SOP changes.     

Three-dimensional polarimetric integral imaging

A three-dimensional (3D) polarimetric image sensing and display technique based on integral imaging is proposed. Three-dimensional polarization distribution of reflected light from a 3D object can be measured as elemental image arrays by a rotating linear polarizer. After the measurement of the polarization of the 3D object, the 3D polarimetric object can be reconstructed optically by displaying the polarization-selected elemental images in spatial light modulators with two quarter-wave plates. Experimental demonstration of 3D polarimetric imaging of a 3D object attached to two orthogonal linear polarizers is presented. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on 3D polarimetric sensing imaging and 3D optical reconstruction by integral imaging.     

Wideband all-order polarization mode dispersion compensation via pulse shaping

We demonstrate the application of ultrafast pulse-shaping techniques for experimental wideband all-order polarization mode dispersion (PMD) compensation, for the first time to our knowledge. PMD is treated as arbitrary variations of state of polarization and phase versus wavelength, in an all-order sense. Consequently, two pulse shapers are implemented in a serial manner to compensate for the polarization and the phase spectra independently. We report compensation of subpicosecond pulses (14 nm bandwidth around 1550 nm) that are anomalously spread to more than 2 ps as a result of PMD. This PMD compensation scheme can potentially be a powerful and cost-effective solution for fiber optic telecommunication networks.     

相位测量偏折术中基于亚像素相移的噪声抑制算法

由于在相位测量偏折术中一般采用数字投影设备或者数字显示设备,相移间隔为若干像素,最小相移量为单个像素,因此对噪声的抑制也是有限的,为此提出一种基于亚像素相移的噪声抑制算法,通过正弦条纹灰度的连续变化来实现亚像素相移,从而增加相移帧数。并采用N-Bucket算法,解决了相移帧数增加后的计算量问题。计算机模拟及实验均表明,该方法可以有效地抑制噪声影响,提高测量精度。为实际应用中合理地选择相移算法提供了理论依据。
