The modal group delays (GDs) are a key property governing the dispersion of signals propagating in a multimode fiber (MMF). A MMF is in the strong-coupling regime when the total length of the MMF is much greater than the correlation length…
In multimode fiber transmission systems, mode-dependent loss and gain (collectively referred to as MDL) pose fundamental performance limitations. In the regime of strong mode coupling, the statistics of MDL (expressed in decibels or log…
In the regime of strong mode coupling, the modal gains and losses and the modal group delays of a multimode fiber are known to have well-defined statistical properties. In mode-division multiplexing, mode-dependent gains and losses are…
In the strong mode coupling regime, the model for mode-dependent gains and losses (collectively referred as MDL) of a multimode fiber is extended to the region with large MDL. The MDL is found to have the same statistical properties as the…
Wavelength-selective switches for mode-division-multiplexing systems are designed by scaling switches from single-mode systems. All modes at a given wavelength are switched as a unit, which is necessary in systems with substantial mode…
Excessive accumulation of group-delay (GD) spread increases computational complexity and affects tracking of receiver-based multi-input multi-output signal processing, posing challenges to long-haul mode-division multiplexing in multimode…
Managing group-delay (GD) spread is vital for reducing the complexity of digital signal processing (DSP) in long-haul systems using multi-mode fibers. GD compensation through mode permutation, which involves periodically exchanging power…
We study modulational instability in a fiber system resembling a dispersion-managed link where the sign of the group-velocity dispersion varies randomly according to a telegraph process. We find that the instability gain of stochastic…
Modal dispersion characterization of multimode optical fibers can be performed using the recently-proposed mode-dependent signal delay method. This method consists of sending optical pulses using different combinations of modes though the…
The development of enhanced sampling methods has greatly extended the scope of atomistic simulations, allowing long-time phenomena to be studied with accessible computational resources. Many such methods rely on the identification of an…
We propose a method to decompose dynamical systems based on the idea that modules constrain the spread of perturbations. We find partitions of system variables that maximize 'perturbation modularity', defined as the autocovariance of…
We study modulational instability in a dispersion-managed system where the sign of the group-velocity dispersion is changed at uniformly distributed random distances around a reference length. An analytical technique is presented to…
A new unimodal distribution family indexed by the mode and three other parameters is derived from a mixture of a Gumbel distribution for the maximum and a Gumbel distribution for the minimum. Properties of the proposed distribution are…
Long-range speckle correlations play an essential role in wave transport through disordered media, but have rarely been studied in other complex systems. Here we discover spatio-temporal intensity correlations for an optical pulse…
The dynamical spreading of quantum information through a many-body system, typically called scrambling, is a complex process that has proven to be essential to describe many properties of out-of-equilibrium quantum systems. Scrambling can,…
The structure of an optical waveguide determines the characteristics of its guided modes, such as their spatial profile and group index. General features are shared by modes regardless of the waveguiding structure; for example, modal…
Statistical models are essential to get a better understanding of the role of disorder in brittle disordered solids. Fiber bundle models play a special role as a paradigm, with a very good balance of simplicity and non-trivial effects. We…
Optical pulses propagating in multimode optical fibers are affected by linear disorder and nonlinearity, and experience chaotic exchange of power among modes. On the other hand, complex systems can attain steady states characterized by…
In backbone networks carrying heavy traffic loads, unwanted and unusual end-to-end delay changes can happen, though possibly rarely. In order to understand and manage the network to potentially avoid such abrupt changes, it is crucial and…
Starting from our puzzling on-sky experience with the GIANO-TNG spectrometer we set up an infrared high resolution spectrometer in our laboratory and used this instrument to characterize the modal noise generated in fibers of different…
