ABSTRACT
The understanding of nonlinear propagation effects in low-crosstalk few-mode fiber is crucial for a weakly coupled mode-division multiplexed system. In this Letter, we report the first, to the best of our knowledge, experimental verification of the advantage of intramodal dispersion on mitigating intramodal cross-phase modulation in a weakly coupled few-mode fiber transmission. The experimental system is established over a 70-km multiple-ring-core few-mode fiber accommodating 6 linearly polarized modes, based on which the influences of intramodal cross-phase modulation on transmission performances of each linearly polarized mode are evaluated. Experimental results show that the intramodal cross-phase modulation of degenerate linearly polarized modes with much larger intramodal dispersion values are significantly weaker than those of non-degenerate linearly polarized modes, in which the maximum suppression of intramodal cross-phase modulation noise is up to 9.7â
dB. We believe that this work would be beneficial to practical applications of weakly coupled mode-division multiplexing technologies.
