We review the current status of mode-division multiplexing (MDM) techniques in fibers and
on chips. Three system applications are introduced, including quasi-single mode …

The concepts of spatial-division multiplexing (SDM) technology were first proposed in the
telecommunications industry as an indispensable solution to reduce the cost-per-bit of …

The potential transmission capacity of a standard single-mode fiber peaks at around
100Tb/s owing to fiber nonlinearity and the bandwidth limitation of amplifiers. As the last …

In this paper, we review space division multiplexing (SDM) transmission experimental
demonstrations and associated technologies. In past years, SDM achieved high capacity …

Abstract Space-division multiplexing (SDM), whereby multiple spatial channels in multimode
and multicore optical fibres are used to increase the total transmission capacity per fibre, is …

The mode-division multiplexing technique combined with a few-mode erbium-doped fiber
amplifier (FM-EDFA) demonstrates significant potential for solving the capacity limitation of …

The increasing development of information technology has led to a higher demand for
communication capacity. Moreover, the mode division multiplexing (MDM) is considered one …

We present for the first time broadband operation of an optical orbital angular momentum
(OAM) erbium-doped fiber amplifier for lower order OAM modes based on an air-hole …

An all-fiber few mode erbium doped fiber amplifier (FM-EDFA) with low differential modal
gain (DMG) is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated. Firstly, a double-cladding six …
