We describe a demonstration of the equalization of polarization dispersion in a direct detection lightwave system. Polarization maintaining fiber was used to generate first-order polarization dispersion, and equalization was achieved by a manually adjustable analog tapped delay line that equalized the baseband electrical signal at the receiver.
