Components For Space-Division Multiplexing

Amplifiers, spatial multiplexers, and routing elements that exploit spatial integration will reduce costs and complexity of future space-division multiplexed transmission systems. Managing spatial modes requires new components such as mode multiplexers, mixers, equalizers, and unscramblers.
