Space-division multiplexing over 10 km of three-mode fiber using coherent 6 × 6 MIMO processing

We demonstrate the transmission of 6 independent, spatially- and polarization multiplexed 28-Gb/s QPSK signals over 10 km of three-mode fiber using mode-selective excitation and full coherent 6 × 6 MIMO processing.
