To evaluate the sensitivity limits of a digital coherent optical receiver both theoretically and experimentally while mitigating polarization sensitivity.
Assessed receiver performance theoretically and experimentally within a 10-Gbit/s binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) optical link.
Integrated a low-noise optical preamplifier and implemented digital maximal-ratio polarization combining to address polarization fluctuations.
Demonstrated receiver sensitivity operating near the fundamental shot-noise limit in the 10-Gbit/s transmission configuration.
Achieved complete independence from the signal's input state of polarization with no penalty in power sensitivity.

Implication

Experimental study demonstrates near shot-noise-limited sensitivity in a 10-Gbit/s binary phase-shift keying system, indicating robust signal recovery without polarization-induced power penalty.
