Joint effect of weak birefringent disorder and amplifier noise on transmission in optical fiber communication systems appears to be strong. The probability of an extreme outage that corresponds to anomalously large values of Bit Error Rate (BER) is perceptible. We analyze the dependence of the Probability Distribution Function (PDF) of BER on the first-order and also higher-order PMD compensation schemes.
