Abstract :
In a polarization control system using two fiber squeezers of limited range, the reset causes momentary signal loss. To prevent this loss, an extra squeezer is required and a special controlling algorithm must be developed. A theoretical approach to the problem is presented resulting in such an algorithm. The presence of angular misalignment between the fiber squeezers is also discussed
