Abstract
The system outage probability induced by polarization mode dispersion (PMD) and polarization dependent loss (PDL) is studied by Monte Carlo simulations using a new waveplate model. The previous waveplate model gives zero PMD and PDL probability densities when PMD and PDL exceed certain values, while our new model does not have such a limitation. It is shown that the system outage probability strongly depends on the interaction of PMD and PDL and the acceptable PMD limit drops significantly with the increase of PDL.
