Combating PMD-induced signal fading in SCM optical systems using polarization diversity optical receiver

We have demonstrated a carrier fading free optical receiver for SCM optical systems using polarization diversity. Since a tunable optical delay line is not required in this setup, then this technique may be more practical than optical domain PMD compensation.
