Features

 Eliminates polarization fading  Maintains signal-to-noise ratio  Compact package  PCB mountable  1550 or 1310 nm Lightel’s PDR is a highly efficient and cost-effective Polarization Diversity Receiver (PDR) for use in fiber optic interferometric measurement and sensing systems. The PDR eliminates polarization fading in fiber optic interferometers without significant degradation in the signal-to-noise ratio. The PDR serves as a receiver to fiber optic interferometers that allow for polarization fading through random birefringence fluctuations. The three independent polarized receivers assure that at least one of the outputs has high interferometric visibility. Input light is split by a 1x3 fiber optic coupler made with SMF-28 with low polarization dependent loss. The three outputs are pigtailed to polarized PIN photodiodes (InGaAS). The polarizer orientation of the photodiodes is 0, +60 and -60 degrees. Housed in a compact and slim package, the Lightel PDR is PCB- mountable and easily integrated into your system design. PDRs are available for 1550 or 1310 nm wavelengths. Polarization Diversity Receiver PDR Ideal for Fiber Optic Interferometric Sensors
