Abstract

We propose a PLC-based multi/demultiplexer (MUX/DEMUX) with a mode conversion function for mode division multiplexing (MDM) transmission applications. The PLC-based mode MUX/DEMUX can realize a low insertion loss and a wide working wavelength bandwidth. We designed and demonstrated a two-mode (LP₀₁ and LP₁₁ modes) and a three-mode (LP₀₁, LP₁₁, and LP₂₁ modes) MUX/DEMUX for use in the C-band.
