High speed data transmission with a modal filter

In this paper we propose and evaluate performance of the higher order mode filter for 850 nm multi-mode fiber transmission. First the operation principles of the filters are presented and then experimental validation of manufactured optical components is made in an optical transmission system. Excellent operation in the 850 nm transmission experiments up to 54 Gbit/s is shown.
