NRT offers LabView drivers to control the NRT-PMDSs: NRT-10033A and NRT-40133A. There are two drivers in the set:
- NRT PMDS Calibrate.vi; calibrates the PMDS to the user input transponder wavelength;
- NRT PMDS Set PMD.vi; changes the PMDS state to the user input DGD and SOPMD values. These states can be read from a data file having a column for DGD and and a second column for SOPMD.
Integrate the PMDS with your present automated BER test set up. Create an array of PMD states (DGD, 2nd-order PMD) to be measured. The PMDS will go to each state in order, allowing the measurement of OSNR penalty.
