Internet of Things (IoT) requires cloud infrastructures for data analysis (e.g., temperature monitoring, energy consumption measurement, etc.). Traditionally, services have been implemented in large datacenters the core network. Core offers high-computational capacity with moderate response time, meeting requirements centralized low-delay demands. However, collecting information and bringing it into one infrastructure is not a long-term scalable solution, particularly as volume IoT devices...
Over 10 peta-bit/s transmission has been experimentally demonstrated for the first time using 11.3-km-length low-DMD 6-mode 19-core fibre across C+L band. Q-factors of all 84,246 SDM/WDM channels modulated with 12-Gbaud DP-64QAM/16QAM exceeded assumed FEC limits.
Partial multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-based weakly coupled mode-division multiplexing (MDM) transmission is proposed to reduce the MIMO matrix size in MDM. This technique can mitigate burden of processing for high-order few-mode fiber (FMF) transmission.

Space-division multiplexing (SDM) is an attractive technique for dramatically enhancing the transmission capacity in a single optical fiber. Recently, ultradense SDM experiments with spatial multiplicity of over 100 have been reported by using few mode multicore fibers (FM-MCFs).
