Comparative Simulative Analysis of Polarization Mode Dispersion in WDM System Using Various Polarization States

Amandeep Kaur, Neeru Malhotra, Bindiya Jain

Abstract


In this paper, we use different types of polarization schemes to measure polarization mode dispersion in WDM system and analyse the BER, Q factor and Eye diagram of various channels. We investigate that if polarization angle can be controlled with the help of polarization controller at ellipticity=+45/-450, azimuth= 00 corresponding to right hand/left hand circular polarization then the overall results shows improvement of Q-factor and BER in case of odd and even channels of the system. The polarization mode dispersion in this mode is also lower than other polarization modes.

Keywords


Bit Error Rate (BER), Eye Diagram, Polarization Controller, Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD), Polarization Schemes, Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) And Q Factor.
