Abstract

In a comparative study post-detection signal processing performed by transversal-filter, decision-feedback-equalizer, the concatenation of both, or maximum-likelihood sequence detection is analyzed for PMD penalty reduction. Optical noise sources and second-order PMD are taken into account.
