Investigation on the randomly-coupled unit grouping multi-core fibers with different unit arrangement
Randomly-coupled unit grouping multi-core fiber (RC-UG-MCF) is a new fiber structure that combines weakly and strongly coupled multi-core fiber technologies. Compared to the weakly-coupled MCF with a large cladding size, the RC-UG-MCF can shrink the cladding size by grouping the cores. On the other hand, the RC-UG-MCF only maintains a few cores in the strongly-coupled condition, which can reduce the multiple-input multiple- output digital signal processing (MIMO-DSP) complexity compared to the coupled MCFs with full MIMO-DSP for all the cores. In this paper, we intro- duce three types of randomly-coupled unit grouping 12-core fiber, which are randomly-coupled 2-core unit grouping MCF (RC-2CUG-MCF), RC-3CUG- MCF and RC-4CUG-MCF. Subsequently, we compare these three RC-UG- MCFs in terms of group delay spread, inter-unit crosstalk (XT), and cladding size. To achieve an inter-unit XT of −40 dB/100 km, RC-3CUG-MCF can provide a solution to maintain MIMO-DSP scale at the level of 6 × 6 with 180-µm cladding radius. However, the RC-2CUG-MCF has worse inter-unit XT, and the RC-4CUG-MCF has larger MIMO complexity. Based on the analysis, there is a trade-off relationship between the MIMO-DSP scale and the fiber cladding size, assuming that the target inter-unit XT is fixed.
期刊介绍：
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
