BER measurements of a 40Gb/s receiver with adaptive threshold using polarization scrambling

Polarization scrambling is proposed to quantify the penalties of polarization dependent effects in optical receivers. The results will be dependent on the relative speed of the polarization changes and the control circuits in the receiver.
