Research on space-division multiplexing (SDM) came to prominence in early 2010 being
primarily proposed as a means of multiplying the information-carrying capacity of optical …

Space-division multiplexing (SDM) uses multiplicity of space channels to increase capacity
for optical communication. It is applicable for optical communication in both free space and …

Multicore fibers (MCFs) are expected as a good candidate for overcoming the capacity limit
of a current optical communication system. This paper describes the recent progress on the …

Single-mode fibres with low loss and a large transmission bandwidth are a key enabler for
long-haul high-speed optical communication and form the backbone of our information …

Space-division multiplexing (SDM) technology is a promising candidate to achieve massive
parallelism in optical fiber cables and overcome the capacity limitation of the conventional …

In this paper, we describe recent progress in space-division multiplexed (SDM)
transmission, and our proposal and demonstration of dense space-division multiplexing …

Randomly-coupled multi-core fiber (MCF) technology has come to attract lots of attention
because of its strong applicability to long-haul transmission systems. Compared with weakly …

Multicore fibers and few-mode fibers have potential application in realizing dense-space-
division multiplexing systems. However, there are some tradeoff requirements for designing …
