Abstract:The polarization properties of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) amplification or attenuation in standard single-mode fibers are examined through vectorial analysis, simulation and experiment. Vector propagation equations for the signal wave, incorporating SBS and birefringence, are derived and analyzed in both the Jones and Stokes spaces. The analysis shows that in the undepleted pump regime, the fiber may be regarded as a polarization-dependent gain (or loss) medium, having two orthogonal input SOPs, and corresponding two orthogonal output SOPs, for the signal, which, respectively, provide the signal with maximum and minimum SBS amplification (or attenuation). Under high Brillouin gain conditions and excluding zero-probability cases, the output SOP of arbitrarily polarized input signals, would tend to converge towards that of maximum SBS gain. In the case of high SBS attenuation the output SOP of an arbitrarily polarized signal would approach the output SOP corresponding to minimum attenuation. It is found that for a wide range of practical pump powers ( mW 100 ≤ ) and for sufficiently long fibers with typical SBS and birefringence parameters, the signal aligned for maximum SBS interaction will enter/emerge from the fiber with its electric field closely tracing the same ellipse in space as that of the pump at the corresponding side of the fiber, albeit with the opposite sense of rotation. The analytic predictions are experimentally demonstrated for both Stokes (amplification) and anti-Stokes (attenuation) signals.

“…Throughout the analysis, we have not accounted for the effect of polarization-related phenomena. In SMFs, these are the phenomena of PMD [18], [91], [92] and PDL [93], [94], [95], [96], which we treat separately in what follows.…”

Challenges in Estimating the Information Capacity of the Fiber-Optic Channel

Since its early commercial deployment in the late 1980s, optical fiber has evolved to become the predominant carrier of the globe's communications. Yet, after accommodating the world's exponentially growing appetite for transmitted data for more than three decades, its ability to continue doing so is being challenged by fundamental factors. In this article, we review these factors and examine their consequences in terms of information capacity. In particular, we review the difficulties that are imposed by the nonlinear nature of fiber-optic transmission on the assessment of the capacity and on the definition of fundamental concepts, such as bandwidth and spectral efficiency. We discuss relevant approximations and regimes of operation in which bounds for the capacity can be effectively assessed while covering a broad range of applications ranging from interdatacenter communications to links spanning transoceanic distances. We relate to a broad variety of transmission schemes and discuss the potential benefits of spatial multiplexing with multimode and multicore fibers.State-of-the-art transmission experiments are also reviewed and compared with theoretical capacity bounds.

“…It should be emphasized that while chromatic dispersion is largely static, PMD (including both the DGD and the PSPs) varies more or less randomly such that the time scales can be on the order of milliseconds. There is a large body of study on the statistical properties of fiber PMD (e.g., [19], [20]). Note that the mean value of fiber DGD grows with the square-root of the fiber length and the proportional coefficient is called the fiber PMD coefficient.…”

In long haul optical fiber communication networks, whichcan span thousands of kilometers, bandwidth is at a premium due to the relatively low availability of optical fibers when compared with network traffic demands. Therefore, these networks require the highest performance in the physical layer, with transceivers that are capable of extracting all the available capacity from each optical fiber. Digital coherent transmitters and receivers, which enhance optical transmission systems by using digital signal processing, are essential for achieving this goal. This tutorial discusses the digital signal processing techniques that are used in the design of high performance coherent modems to compensate for adverse channel effects such as fiber impairments and optoelectronic device nonidealities.
