Teledyne LeCroy: Low-Loss Mode Coupler for Mode-Multiplexed transmission in Few-Mode Fiber
We present a novel low-loss 3-spot mode coupler to selectively address 6 spatial and polarization modes of a few-mode fiber. The coupler is used in a 66 MIMO-transmission experiment over a 154-km hybrid span consisting of 129-km depressed-cladding and 25-km graded-index few-mode fiber.
