The obtained results show that electromagnetically induced polarization changes in WDM systems, which are working on a SSMF base can severely reduce the system perfomance. Therefore, the channel spacing must be increased. For example, in the case of 45° polarization rotation the spacing increase from 50 GHz to 100 GHz is necessary.
