Abstract
Demonstrations of several four-stage programmable polarization-mode-dispersion sources are compared with theoretical predictions. The instruments can independently control first-and second-order polarization-mode dispersion (PMD). Birefringent phase is used to continuously frequency-shift the PMD spectrum,and used to show the difference between a coherent and incoherent spectra.
