Abstract
Having a fixed differential-group delay (DGD) term bâ² in the coarse-step method results in a repetitive pattern in the autocorrelation function (ACF). We solve this problem by inserting a varying DGD term at each integration step. Furthermore we compute the range of values needed for bâ² and simulate the phenomenon of polarisation mode dispersion for different statistical distributions of bâ². We examine systematically the modified coarse-step method compared to the analytical model, through our simulation results.
