Abstract(in English) Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) is now becoming the main limit factor for system performances in optical communication systems. To replace the bad sections of a link with large PMD, distributed measurement technique is highly required. Conventional technology, such as polarization optical time domain reflectometry (P-OTDR), has an insufficient spatial resolution to detect a high-PMD section. We developed a full polarimetric reflectometry with a spatial resolution of 10 cm over 20 km based on phase-noise-compensated optical frequency domain reflectometry (PNC-OFDR), with a polarization diversity detection scheme. The distributed DGD measurement of high PMD fibers is realized using this technology, and the detection of ~ 0.4 ps/rkm fibers is successfully demonstrated based on it.
