Abstract:
We successfully demonstrate a novel technique for synchronising optical frequencies in WDM signals and LO lights. We can simultaneously stabilise the polarisations of multi-carrier LO lights, which are transmitted with SDM-WDM signals via a multi-core fibre for digital coherent detection.
