Abstract:
An optical communication system is arranged to bring out potential capabilities of mode-division multiplexing (MDM). The optical communication system includes a hologram medium in which holograms are multiplex-recorded so as to correspond to respective spatial modes of signal light transmitted by a multi-mode fiber (MMF). A phase plate modulates phases of the respective spatial modes so as to reduce a spatial overlap between the spatial modes, and is provided on a side of the hologram medium on which signal light enters the hologram medium.
