  • Abstract
    We theoretically and experimentally investigated a pre-PMD scheme for SPM suppression. A 3.4 dB improvement in the nonlinear threshold was observed using optimum first- and second-order PMD. We also confirmed that the pre-PMD techniques can coexist with chromatic dispersion management.
