High-density mobile fronthaul optical interconnects using few-mode fibers

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to develop a prototype of high-density optical interconnects for mobile fronthaul systems using few-mode transmission techniques. This is required to meet the high bandwidth demand from 5G mobile standard, which is to be rolled out worldwide in the near future. The project expects to advance knowledge of space-division-multiplexing techniques using cost-effective direct detection. The methodologies and technologies developed through this project will enhance the competitiveness of the Australian’s telecommunication sector, especially on the deployment of 5G services to the broader community. This technology will be critical to Australia’s digital economy, from supporting virtual reality to autonomous driving and will provide significant benefits to the Australian optical communication industry.
