Abstract
The differential equation that relates the Jones matrix of a polarization‐mode dispersion fiber to its output dispersion vector is solved for a dispersion vector that moves on a circumference in the Stokes space. It yields a new simple model that can be usefully exploited to calculate the pulse‐broadening analytical expression and to evaluate the system performance in terms of outage probability. A comparison among the results obtained with it, with other models proposed in literature, and with the numerical DRW model show its best accuracy. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
