Progress in Electromagnetics Research Symposium Proceedings 2013
Andis Supe, Jurģis Poriņš, Ģirts Ivanovs

In this article is given research results about nonlinear phenomena four-wave mixing (FWM) potential use in the optical fiber (OF) nonlinear coefficient and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) evaluation. First of all we give theoretical review about FWM causes in the OF. Afterwards the nonlinear parameter measurement technique based on FWM is proposed. Fiber used in the experimental measurements is highly non-linear fiber (HNLF) wich nonlinear parameter is unknown and therefore is suitable for this research work.
