PMD-Tolerant 20 krad/s Endless Polarization and Phase Control for BB84-Based QKD with TDM Pilot Signals
TDM-based polarization and differential phase control with 35ps PMD tolerance and 20krad/s tracking speed is demonstrated. 600ns intervals are reserved for QKD and for 0{\deg}- and 45{\deg}-polarized pilot signals. ECLs are modulated directly, with high extinction. Power budget is 17dB, fiber length is 63km.

PDL Impact on Linearly Coded Digital Phase Conjugation Techniques in CO-OFDM Systems
We investigate the impact of polarization-dependent loss (PDL) on the linearly coded digital phase conjugation (DPC) techniques in coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) superchannel system…
Near-field focusing using phased arrays with dynamic polarization control
Phased arrays in near-field communication allow the transmitter to focus wireless signals in a small region around the receiver. Proper focusing is achieved by carefully tuning the phase shifts and the polarization of th…
An Endless Optical Phase Delay for Phase Synchronization in High-Capacity DCIs
In this work, we propose and demonstrate a module to linearly add an arbitrary amount of continuous (reset-free) phase delay to an optical signal. The proposed endless optical phase delay (EOPD) uses an optical IQ modula…
Application of Quaternions to Obtain Analytic Solutions to Systems of Polarization Components
The usual way to describe mathematically a beam of coherent light passing through a system of waveplates is via the Jones vector and Jones matrix. This paper will show that a quaternion can be used to represent both the …
Eight-dimensional Polarization-ring-switching Modulation Formats
We propose two 8-dimensional (8D) modulation formats (8D-2048PRS-T1 and 8D-2048PRS-T2) with a spectral efficiency of 5.5 bit/4D-sym, where the 8 dimensions are obtained from two time slots and two polarizations. Both for…
