Abstract
Soliton robustness to polarisation dispersion pulse broadening in a 400 km installed optical fibre is experimentally demonstrated. With 10ps input pul ses and a differential group delay of 7.6ps, the soliton pulsewidth at the receiver is maintained within 10-11ps when the input polarisation is change d, while the corresponding range for dispersion-compensated linear pulses i s 10.5-15.5ps.
