本文介绍了1.5×03BC；m双折射单模光纤的模式双折射(MB)和偏振模色散(PMD)的测量。将基于固定分析器法的光学频域干涉法应用于光纤中光的正交偏振分量的测量。使用具有在1520到1560 nm之间的光学波长范围的放大的自发辐射源。得到信道化干涉谱，依次测量MB和PMD。在上述光学波长范围内，这两个参数与频率无关，获得了MB=4.0×00D7；10×2212；4，PMD=1.33ps/m。
This Letter describes measurements of modal birefringence (MB) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) of a birefringent single-mode optical fiber for use at 1.5 #x03BC;m in optical wavelength. Optical frequency-domain interferometry based on a fixed analyzer method is applied to the measurement of orthogonal polarization components of light guided in the fiber. An amplified spontaneous emission source having an optical wavelength range between 1520 and 1560 nm is used. A channeled interference spectrum is obtained to measure MB and PMD in turn. These two parameters are not frequency-dependent in the above optical wavelength range and MB = 4.0 #x00D7; 10#x2212;4and PMD = 1.33 ps/m are obtained.
