Abstract :
The evolution of the differential group delay between the principal states of polarisation versus distance in a link composed of 12 fibres, each 2.2 km long, is studied experimentally with a colour centre laser at 1.5 mu m. The results of a simulation based on a theoretical model are in agreement with the measurements.
