Abstract

Rotatable fiber loops are commonly used to change the state of polarization in fiber optic transmission systems. As an improvement of such a system we describe a feedback controlled polarization transformer which operates at its output prot as a polarization synthesizer. The whole setup allows a very efficient polarization adjustment with a stable and well known state of polarization.
