A Differential Polarization-time Coding Scheme for Polarization-division-multiplexed Fiber-optic Communication Systems

Polarization division multiplexing (PolDM) is a promising way to improve the spectral efficiency of fiber-optic communication systems. However, PolDM systems suffer greatly from polarization mode dispersion (PMD), especially in long-haul systems. PMD is time-varying and is intrinsically hard to comp...
