Abstract

An optical system includes a transmitter including transmitter circuitry configured to cause transmission of a transmitted optical signal over a fiber link on an X polarization and a Y polarization; and a receiver including receiver circuitry configured to receive a received optical signal from the fiber link on the X polarization and the Y polarization, wherein the transmitter circuitry is configured to cause State of Polarization (SOP) changes on the X polarization and the Y polarization for a test of the fiber link. The transmitter circuitry and the receiver circuitry are built-in with the transmitter and the receiver, respectively, for performance of the test.
