Abstract

We report a new stochastic model for studying the polarization-dependent gain and gain fluctuations in Raman fiber amplifiers with randomly varying birefringence as a function of the pump state of polarization and the polarization mode dispersion parameter. Based on the presented model and our previous experimental data for polarization dependent gain we develop a new experimental technique for birefringence correlation length measurement.
