  • Abstract
    Polarisation mode dispersion impedes the development of high capacity optical trunk lines but can be compensated for by an adaptive compensator in the receiver. By using three polarisation mode dispersion penalty extraction signals, differential group delays exceeding one bit duration are compensated for in a 40 Gbit/s optical transmission system for the first time
