With the development of optical communication systems in high bandwidth fiber, various degradations affect the propagation of light signals such as polarization mode dispersion which represents a temporal pulse broadening, it becomes troublesome from long and long distances for this, it is necessary to regenerate the signal optically, that is to say, the amplified (1R regeneration) , the reshaping (2R regeneration) and sometimes resynchronize to overcome the phenomenon of jitter time (3R regeneration). In this paper we study the contribution of 2R optical regenerator self-modulation to combat the phenomenon of polarization mode dispersion. The experiment is simulated with optisystem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
