Abstract
Polarisation division multiples can double optical fibre capacity. The dete ction of interchannel interference in a receiver, and its employment as a c ontrol signal for polarisation tracking, is described. Transmission over 33 km of dispersion shifted fibre with a 6.25 picosecond polarisation mode di spersion tolerance is demonstrated.
