Optimal crosstalk suppression in multicore fibers
arXiv:1905.09416 · doi:10.1038/s41598-019-51854-x
Abstract
We study propagation in a cyclic symmetric multicore fiber where the core radii randomly fluctuate along the propagation direction. We propose a hybrid analytic-numerical method to optimize the amplitude and frequency of the fluctuations that suppress power transfer between outer and inner cores. Our predictions are confirmed by numerical experiments using finite difference beam propagation methods for realistic C-band fibers.
