We describe theoretically and realize experimentally Anderson localization for optical pulses in time domain, using a photonic mesh lattice with random phase modulation implemented with coupled optical fiber loops. We demonstrate that strongest degree of localization is limited and increases in lattices with wider band-gaps.
