Zusammenfassung:ABSTRACT In this article, the development of a controllable and compact polarization mode dispersion (PMD) emulator device, based on piezoelectric actuators, is presented. Using this device, the first‐ and second‐order PMD is reproduced in a controlled and compact way, allowing its use as a reliable metrological reference for PMD compensators. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
