ABSTRACT:
A system and method for multi-channel PMD/PDL/PDG mitigation, the system including polarization scramblers adapted to vary the state of polarization of an optical signal propagated through the system to effectively vary the polarization mode dispersion experienced by the signal during each burst-error-correcting-period of the forward error correction used in the system.
