Analysis of Crosstalk in Multicore Fibers: Statistical Distributions and Analytical Expressions

We present a study of multicore fiber (MCF) crosstalk using the coupled mode theory. We derived a general closed-form simulation formula for the crosstalk of MCF under random perturbations, which includes both the average crosstalk and the crosstalk statistical distribution. From this general formul...
