Abstract
A combined effect of polarization-mode
dispersion (PMD) and polarizationdependent losses (PDL) may lead to anomalous pulse narrowing in single mode optical fiber despite the existence of finite group delay during the pulse propagation in single-mode fiber (SMF).

Cont..
Such occurrences of pulse narrowing in SMF has different dimensions and conditions with various input signals like 1) Gaussian and 2) chirped Gaussian at different parametric conditions are studied. Hence, a careful investigation on pulse transmission in the presence of PMD and PDL is necessary.

Dispersion on SMF
For high speed long haul transmission systems: SMF is preferred Chromatic Dispersion :
Material Dispersion
Refractive index of silica changes with [
Waveguide Dispersion
Related to fiber parameter such as core radius, index difference
Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) -Due to birefringence

Birefringence
An ideal SMF with a perfect cylindrical core supports 2 orthogonally polarized HE11 modes traveling at the same speed But in real fiber: Non-perfect circular core Asymmetric internal stresses

Birefringence..
Polarisation state changes due to birefringence along the fiber

Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL)
PDL is the differential loss between two polarization modes PDL is affected by Couplers, switches, isolators. Differential loss (E) between the two polarization modes is
2E
I m ax ! I m in
Imax = Intensity of PM with lowest loss Imin = Intensity of PM with highest loss

PMD causes random pulse distortion and pulse broadening PDL induces random fluctuations of the optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) in the system. These effects lead to significant performance degradation in long-haul light wave transmission systems.

SYSTEM MODEL
Three optical elements are concatenated such that a PDL element is sandwiched between two PMD elements
PMD of first PMD element is parallel to the fixed reference direction.

A proper measure of the pulsewidth is the root mean square of the time averaged with power P(t)

To compare the output pulsewidth and the input pulsewidth, the effective squared pulsewidth difference is defined as

Positive value of W 2 indicates pulse broadening and negative value indicates pulse narrowing.
