Abstract :
We propose channel-dependent gain (CDG) reduction technique using single-core few-mode EDFA for multi-core transmission system. We investigate experimentally the proposed core-mode to LP-mode scrambled conversion characteristics using photonic lantern and realize low CDG independent of mode-dependent gain in EDFA.
