A new algorithm on PMD pulse-width compression

An algorithm on PMD pulse-width compression is proposed. The new algorithm is more efficient than some recent result and is guaranteed to be globally convergent. Also all iteration points are feasible Jones vectors. These properties are important since in many situations, PMD control needs to be imp...

Description
Summary:An algorithm on PMD pulse-width compression is proposed. The new algorithm is more efficient than some recent result and is guaranteed to be globally convergent. Also all iteration points are feasible Jones vectors. These properties are important since in many situations, PMD control needs to be implemented in real time.
