Abstract

High-speed polarization scramblers can substantially improve the performance of optically-amplified transoceanic lightwave systems by depolarizing the launched optical information signal, thus eliminating anisotropic gain saturation (polarization hole burning) in the erbium-doped fiber amplifiers [1]–[3].
