Experimental investigation of a 16-dimensional modulation format for long-haul multi-core fiber transmission
Paper in proceeding, 2015

We experimentally investigate a 16-dimensional modulation format applicable to multi-core fiber transmission, and demonstrate over 14,000 km transmission for a BER of 1E-3, a 55 % improvement in reach compared to DP-BPSK for the same spectral efficiency.
