Mode-dependent loss and gain (MDL MDG) of multimode components are fundamental impairments that reduce the capacity mode-division-multiplexed (MDM) systems. MDL is commonly quantified either in terms root mean square (rms) or peak-to-peak (P-P) variations. It incorrect to specify only P-PMDL if they be used an MDM system with nonnegligible mode coupling, because system's overall coupled gains random variables whose statistics cannot determined from P-P values. On other hand, measurements rms...

We show by analysis and simulation of a multisection model that polarization- or mode-dependent gain from single-mode semiconductor optical amplifiers multimode erbium-doped fiber causes the channel capacity with minimum-mean-square error detection to become substantially lower than optimal maximum likelihood detection.
