Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A simple polarization-OTDR(POTDR) which can evaluate longitudinal distribution of PMD along optical fibers is presented. The OTDR is suitable for the measurement on PMD of optical fibers used for 40Gb/s transmission. The principle of the simple POTDR is investigated, and its measurable PMD range is evaluated. The validity of the POTDR is confirmed by both simulations and measurements on individual fibers and fibers having longitudinal PMD distribution.
