Abstract
A system and method for measuring and compensating for the polarization mode dispersion of first and higher orders for a transmitted optical signal are described wherein the propagation time difference, caused from polarization mode dispersion, between orthogonally polarized signals of the transmitted optical signal can be determined very precisely, and can be compensated for, even above a delay of a bit duration of the data signal.
