Abstract
We review recent progress of space division multiplexing technologies using few-mode and multi-core fibers. Heterogeneous design has been demonstrated as a key technology for dense core arrangement. Highest spatial channel density and over-100 spatial channel count were realized with a heterogeneous 36-core 3-mode fiber.
