Feasibility Demonstration of Integrated Fractioanal Joint Switching WSS Applicable for Few-Mode Multicore Fiber

摘要

We demonstrate the feasibility of an integrated fractional joint switching wavelength-selective-switch that is applicable for few-mode multicore fibers. The feasibility is verified using wavelength-swept insertion loss measurements and an evaluation of the bit-error-rate performance in experiments using 200 Gb/s spatial superchannel switching.
