Abstract :
We demonstrate the use of an auto regressive moving average (ARMA) optical lattice alter in compensating polarization mode dispersion (PMD) by minimizing the differential group delay (DGD) within a given frequency range. A numerical simulation was performed for a 4th order ARMA filter to compare the DGD values before and after filtering. Also, a quasi-analytical simulation was performed to estimate the signal to noise (SNR) reduction after filtering.
