305-Km Combined Wavelength and Mode-Multiplexed Transmission over Conventional Graded-Index Multimode Fibre

Abstract

We present experimental results for mode-multiplexed WDM transmission over OM3 multimode fibres. We transmit 60 WDM channels and 3 spatial modes over a distance of 305 km. We use mode-selective photonic lanterns as mode couplers and for differential group delay compensation.
