Experimental Investigation of Crosstalk Penalties in Multicore Fiber Transmission Systems
We experimentally study the impact of crosstalk in multicore fibers, using polarization-multiplexed quadrature phase-shift keying signals. Using a 7-core fiber, we perform single-span transmission experiments, where the level of crosstalk to the core under test can be varied. We find the penalty in...
