| Abstract: | A system experiment is reported in which polarisation mode dispersion (PMD) and chromatic dispersion (CD) compensation was achieved using an SiGe IC linear equaliser, with a transmission rate of 100 bit/s over 95 km of standard single-mode fibre (DL=1600 ps/nm). Full equalisation was obtained, with a differential group delay (DGD) of <65 ps and a penalty reduction to 3.4 dB for DGD=100 ps |
