Abstract :
We demonstrate the first few-mode-fiber based passive optical network, effectively utilizing mode multiplexing to eliminate combining loss for upstream traffic. Error-free performance has been achieved for 20-km 3-mode transmission in a commercial GPON system carrying live Ethernet traffic.
