Review of Mode Division Multiplexed passive optical networks and its hybrid with TDM and WDM systems
Keywords:
Mode Division Multiplexing, Time Division Multiplexing, Wavelength Division Multiplexing, PON, Few Mode Fiber.Abstract
We review the use of Mode Division Multiplexing (MDM) as a multiplexing technology for the realization of passive optical networks. We start with approaches for MDM realization – with the use of complex MIMO digital signal processing or without complex DSP using few mode fibers. We proceed to explain basic architecture of MDM PON, and its hybrid with time division multiplexing - TDM MDM PON and hybrid of time, wavelength and mode division multiplexing – MDM TDM WDM PON. We then proceed to discuss recent progress in the field of Mode Division Multiplexing.
