- the optimum DGD for the transmission path to which the basic simplified PMDC section is applied will be described.
- this PMDC functions as a Principal State of Polarization (PSP) transmission. That is, compensation is performed by directing the PSP (direction of the PMD vector) of the entire transmission path including the PMDC to the direction of the polarization state (State Of Polarization: SOP) of the input signal light. Therefore, in order to direct the entire PMD vector to any SOP that the incident signal light can take, the DGD adding section of the PMDC must have a DGD amount equal to or greater than the DGD of the transmission path (Ref. [4]). . However, considering the secondary PMD, the maximum value of DGD that can be obtained by the statistical distribution of the transmission path is not always the optimal DGD amount of the DGD adding section of PMDC.
- the present invention for a PMDC and an optical communication system is configured as follows. ing. That is, (1) a PMD C provided with a DGD providing unit having an optimum DGD amount, (2) a method of applying the PMD C to an optical communication system, and (3) a DGD providing unit having an optimum DGD amount.

- the model of the optical transmission line follows the model of Reference [1] (F. Bruyere, Optical fiber Tech., 2, pp. 269-280, 1996), taking into account the frequency dependence of the DGD in the J with matrix of the transmission line. It consists of a phase shift matrix and a rotation matrix taking into account the frequency dependence of the PSP.
- the former is the primary PMD, DGD, and the polarization dependent chromatic dispersion (Polarization, which is part of the secondary PMD).
- PCD -dependent Chromatic Dispersion
- the simple PMDC has one PC, one DGD application unit, and a DOP monitor, and operates as shown in Figure 15B. Specifically, the PC performs polarization conversion so that the maximum DOP is obtained.
- the receiver follows the basic model described in reference [7] (SDPersonick, Bell Syst. Technol. J., 52 (6), pp.843-886, 1973). In the simulation shown here, optical noise and transmittance of the transmission line are ignored. First, assume only DGD for the transmission path.
- FIGS. 16A and 16B show the results of calculating the DOP and the Q value for the DGD amount ( ⁇ L) of the transmission line for various DGD amounts (C) of the DGD adding unit of PMDC.
- ⁇ L the DGD amount
- C DGD adding unit of PMDC.
- both the DO P and Q values show the minimum values for the incident SOP.
- the tendency of the Q value change is in good agreement with that of the DOP, and it can be seen that the DOP correctly indicates the transmission degradation penalty due to the PMD.
- C and L are 25 Ps and 12.5 ps, respectively, the Q value is greatly degraded, but this is due to the effect of the secondary PMD.
- TC T;
- the Q value does not deteriorate because both the primary and secondary PMDs become 0 by orthogonalizing the respective polarization axes.
- the margin is too small, the TTL will not be compensated and the Q value will deteriorate.
- the optimum at which the worst Q value becomes the maximum is approximately 18.75 ps.
- Fig. 7 shows the case where K and ⁇ are given to the transmission line and ⁇ C has various values for ⁇ L, as in Fig. 16.
- the Q value is not so much compensated for by the effect of ⁇ and co compared to Fig.
- the optimal DGD value C is still around 18.75ps If the width of the DGD distribution is smaller, K and ⁇ ⁇ will be smaller as well, so if the value of the second-order PMD is smaller, the tendency in the case of DGD only (Fig. 16 ⁇ ) tends to be smaller. Considering that it becomes more remarkable, it can be seen that the optimal DGD amount of simple PMDC is about 0.75 ⁇ in any case. This result can be similarly applied to a plurality of embodiments of the present invention in which the secondary PMD is suppressed.
- the statistical PMD characteristics of the transmission line (optical fiber) of the system must first be measured. Then, the maximum DGD value is determined from the DGD distribution. According to the result, the optimal value of DGD to be installed in PMDC is determined according to the above definition (0.75 of maximum DGD).
- the maximum value of 0.75 of the DGD distribution in the transmission line where the primary PMD and the secondary PMD exist is defined as the DGD value of the DGD providing unit that is installed in the PMDC. He then showed how to determine the optimal DGD value. According to the present invention, a simple and inexpensive PMDC can be optimally applied to an optical communication system. Industrial applicability
