Mode coupling effects in ring-core fibres for space-division multiplexing systems

An optical fibre with weak mode coupling is desirable for future ultra-high capacity space-division multiplexing (SDM) systems because mode coupling in an optical fibre results in extrinsic loss of the fibre and crosstalk between guided optical modes. To study the feasibility of a ring-core fibre (R...
