Joint PDL and in-band OSNR monitoring supported by data-aided channel estimation

Employing a known training sequence robust and precise PDL and OSNR monitoring is demonstrated over a wide range of combined distortions. The proposed in-service monitoring technique is insensitive to CD, PMD and SOP rotation.
