Coherent quantum measurement for the direct determination of the degree of polarization and polarization mode dispersion compensation
Abstract An example of a coherent measurement for the direct evaluation of the degree of polarization of a single-mode optical beam is presented. It is applied to the case of great practical importance where depolarization is caused by polarization mode dispersion. It is demonstrated that coherent measurement has the potential …
