Analysis of short-term polarization stability using Allan variance
Borja Vidal
Abstract:The application of Allan variance to characterize the stability of optical signals affected by stochastic polarization fluctuations and the identification of the underlying power law noise processes is explored. Allan variance can ease the comparison regarding polarization stability of optical systems affected by polarization noise and define a near-optimum integration interval to reveal trends. Examples of the application of Allan variance to optical systems with stable polarization conditions show that white… Show more
