TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a mode-field matched center-launching technique by fusion-splicing a single-mode fiber (SMF) pigtailed transmitter to the MMF, where the splicing condition is optimized to expand the core of SMF slightly so that it can match the mode field distribution of the fundamental mode of MMF.
Abstract: We report that the center-launching technique can be improved to selectively excite the fundamental mode of multimode fiber (MMF). This ldquomode-field matchedrdquo center-launching technique enables us to excite only the fundamental mode in the MMF and, consequently, avoid the inherent limitations imposed by the differential mode delay. We realize this mode-field matched center-launching technique simply by fusion-splicing a single-mode fiber (SMF) pigtailed transmitter to the MMF. The splicing condition is optimized to expand the core of SMF slightly so that it can match the mode field distribution of the fundamental mode of MMF. The results show that, by using this launching technique, we can achieve the transmission characteristics similar to SMF and drastically increase the bandwidth-distance product of MMF. For demonstrations, we have successfully transmitted 10- and 40-Gb/s signals over 12.2 and 3.7 km of MMF, respectively, without using any dispersion compensation techniques. We have also evaluated the robustness of the MMF link implemented by using the proposed launching technique against the mechanical perturbations such as the lateral offset between fiber connectors, fiber bending, and fiber shaking.

TL;DR: For the ultra-high capacity need of SDM, Few Mode Fiber (FMF) was proposed as SDM best technology for obtaining ultra- high bit rates with long haul transmission and channel estimation techniques were proposed to enable the transmitter pre-shaping design for the linear effects mitigation.
Abstract: 1241 New Method For Modeling and Design Optical SDM Transmission System Using Long Haul FMF with PDM/DWDM Techniques Enabling QPSK Modulation Format Ibrahim Abdullah Musaddak Maher Department of electrical engineering, University of Babylon dr.ibrahim_ba@yahoo.com, www.theboss1@yahoo.com Abstract: This paper presents the modeling and design of ultra high capacity Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) transmission system. Polarization Division Multiplexing (PDM) and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) techniques are also proposed in this system to increase total system data rate. For the ultra-high capacity need of SDM, Few Mode Fiber (FMF) was proposed as SDM best technology for obtaining ultra-high bit rates with long haul transmission. The description and design of 8-DWDM channels over 7 modes SDM/PDM system was explored as future of ultra-high capacity optical network. A long-haul transmission of 1080 Km recorded for 8-WDM channels-7modes-SDM/PDM system by using QPSK modulation format. The total bit rate achieved by our designed system is 4.48 Tb/s at 40Gb/s. Channel estimation techniques were proposed to enable the transmitter pre-shaping design for the linear effects mitigation by using different DSP algorithms. The presence of linear and nonlinear losses limits the acceptable range of input power that produce the required BER for our proposed system from -4dBm to 4dBm.

TL;DR: This paper addresses digital communication in a Rayleigh fading environment when the channel characteristic is unknown at the transmitter but is known (tracked) at the receiver with the aim of leveraging the already highly developed 1-D codec technology.
Abstract: This paper addresses digital communication in a Rayleigh fading environment when the channel characteristic is unknown at the transmitter but is known (tracked) at the receiver. Inventing a codec architecture that can realize a significant portion of the great capacity promised by information theory is essential to a standout long-term position in highly competitive arenas like fixed and indoor wireless. Use (n T , n R ) to express the number of antenna elements at the transmitter and receiver. An (n, n) analysis shows that despite the n received waves interfering randomly, capacity grows linearly with n and is enormous. With n = 8 at 1% outage and 21-dB average SNR at each receiving element, 42 b/s/Hz is achieved. The capacity is more than 40 times that of a (1, 1) system at the same total radiated transmitter power and bandwidth. Moreover, in some applications, n could be much larger than 8. In striving for significant fractions of such huge capacities, the question arises: Can one construct an (n, n) system whose capacity scales linearly with n, using as building blocks n separately coded one-dimensional (1-D) subsystems of equal capacity? With the aim of leveraging the already highly developed 1-D codec technology, this paper reports just such an invention. In this new architecture, signals are layered in space and time as suggested by a tight capacity bound.

TL;DR: The results suggest that multiphoton interactions occur in the glasses and that it may be possible to write three-dimensional optical circuits in bulk glasses with such a focused laser beam technique.
Abstract: With the goal of being able to create optical devices for the telecommunications industry, we investigated the effects of 810-nm, femtosecond laser radiation on various glasses. By focusing the laser beam through a microscope objective, we successfully wrote transparent, but visible, round-elliptical damage lines inside high-silica, borate, soda lime silicate, and fluorozirconate (ZBLAN) bulk glasses. Microellipsometer measurements of the damaged region in the pure and Ge-doped silica glasses showed a 0.01–0.035 refractive-index increase, depending on the radiation dose. The formation of several defects, including Si E′ or Ge E′ centers, nonbridging oxygen hole centers, and peroxy radicals, was also detected. These results suggest that multiphoton interactions occur in the glasses and that it may be possible to write three-dimensional optical circuits in bulk glasses with such a focused laser beam technique.
