Abstract

Methods and apparatus for correcting polarization mode dispersion (PMD) and other transmission distortions in a light signal. By performing measurements of polarization state versus frequency on an intrachannel basis, the first-order and higher-order variations in the polarization state in the channel due to distortions such as PMD may be identified and characterized. Having identified and characterized the variations, the effects of the distortion may be compensated for and substantially eliminated. The methods and apparatus are not limited to single channel configurations but, instead, embrace configuration such as DWDM that carry a plurality of communication channels over a single fiber link.
