“…SM-MCF is much easier to achieve large capacity/longdistance transmission because single-mode propagation is stable and the increase in the core number directly reflects on the total capacity [20,21,22,23,24]. FM-MCF has a considerable potential of providing ultimate capacity and spatial channel counts [25,26,27,28,29,30]; however, the transmission system tends to be complex. In particular, the extension of fiber length and transmission distance is a severe issue.…”

SUMMARYThe potential transmission capacity of a standard single-mode fiber peaks at around 100 Tb/s owing to fiber nonlinearity and the bandwidth limitation of amplifiers. As the last frontier of multiplexing, space-division multiplexing (SDM) has been studied intensively in recent years. Although there is still time to deploy such a novel fiber communication infrastructure; basic research on SDM has been carried out. Therefore, a comprehensive review is worthwhile at this time toward further practical investigations.

“…It is called a bending-loss insensitive single-mode optical fiber (G.657 [15]). This type of fiber has almost the same characteristics as G.652 fibers except for its bending characteristics.…”

“…7. Major important characteristics of the passive components are naturally low insertion loss, low core/mode Figure 8 categorizes various SDM fibers [9]- [13], [18], [20], [21], [31], [42]- [49]. So far, FMFs, single-mode (SM)-MCFs (uncoupled, coupled) and FM-MCFs have mainly been fabricated and tested in transmission experiments.…”
