Wideband and Low-Loss Mode Scrambler for Few-Mode Fibers Based on Distributed Multiple Point-Loads
We propose a new type of all-fiber mode scrambler for mode division multiplexed data transmission based on few mode fibers. By randomly placing multiple point-loads along the fiber length, low loss and wideband mode coupling is obtained amongst all the guided modes. The effect of mode coupling is si...
