Abstract
We propose a novel in-band optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) monitoring method based on polarization interference. The method realizes a monitoring accuracy of ±0.5 dB within the range of 9–34 dB. Our results indicate that the proposed method is transparent to bitrate and modulation format, as well as independent of polarization mode dispersion and chromatic dispersion.
