Intercore Crosstalk Mitigation in Multicore Fiber Transmission with Optical Space Coding

摘要： We have demonstrated crosstalk mitigation in single-mode MCFs using optical space coding. Four types of single-mode multicore fiber (MCF) models were evaluated by our scheme with the modified prime code and differential detection. Typically, intercore crosstalk was improved by 7–20 dB in 9-core fibers with an original crosstalk of 10–20 dB.
