Abstract :
A new scheme of compensation combining first-order compensation and relevant ISOP control was proposed. Its interest lies in the fact that it avoids staying a long time on sub-optimum, yielding poor performance of the compensator. It has proved to be a good and a simple means to improve the value of tolerable polarisation mode dispersion (PMD) in the line up to 37% of bit-time.
