Propagation characteristics of seven-core fiber for spatial and wavelength division multiplexed 10-Gbit/s channels

Propagation characteristics of seven-core fiber were investigated for multiplexed signals of spatial-division and wavelength-division. Effect of chromatic dispersion and inter-core crosstalk were evaluated for 5-km fiber by using 10-Gbit/s channels.
