← ScienceWhich issue arises when two lasers using polarization multiplexing misalign?
A)Increased signal interference✓
B)Higher power consumption
C)Reduced pump efficiency
D)Spurious mode competition
💡 Explanation
Misalignment yields signal interference because polarization states no longer cleanly separate, and Polarization Mode Dispersion, increases signal overlap rather than power issues or inefficient pumping; therefore the signal degrades rather than modes being affected.
