Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, a multi-core fiber design technology that considers random phase errors caused by random structural perturbations and random polarization mode coupling, in addition to deterministically given perturbations such as bending and twisting of optical fibers has been developed. By comparing the experimental measurement results and the numerical simulation results of the spatial mode dispersion in coupled multi-core fibers, the relationship between the perturbation amount and the spatial mode dispersion in the actual transmission line was quantitatively clarified. In addition, the possibility of a coupled multi-mode multi-core fiber that combines multi-core technology and multi-mode technology was examined, and the conditions for enhancing random-mode coupling between different mode groups were clarified.
