Abstract
We propose a theoretical mode division multiplexing (MDM) transmission model in a few mode fibers and numerically simulate the effects of mode coupling and modal dispersion on the transmitted signal. An adaptive signal processing with multiple-input multiple-output equalizers based on recursive least squares constant modulus algorithm (CMA) is proposed and demonstrated. The simulation results show that the mode signals are equalized sufficiently with a faster convergent speed than regular CMA. The equalization algorithm presented is more adaptive to complicated channels and applicable to the MDM system.
