Abstract

The paper concerns uncertainty of PMD Eye Opening Penalty (EOP) in an OOK fiber optic communication line that may result from the use in EOP calculations of uncertain estimates of the first order PMD. The considered PMD estimator obtains the PMD values from waveforms of transmitted signals. It is shown that non-negligible uncertainty and bias that the PMD estimates suffer from do not translate to unacceptable uncertainty of EOP calculated from the estimates. Then, practical applicability of PMD estimation from waveforms can be confirmed.
