Abstract

Polarisation mode dispersion (PMD) measurements over 1520 km fibres with 22 cascaded Er-doped fibre amplifiers (EDFAs) are presented. PMD in the EDFA system was measured to be ∼5 ps. Measurements of PMD of optical isolators, and fibre length dependence of PMD in cascaded 100 km fibres are also reported.
