Abstract

Space division multiplexing (SDM) has received a lot of attention in the past years, as it is seen as the final frontier of fiber optic capacity improvement for long haul transmission. Its use in access networks is even more interesting, due to the different design optimization goals in access versus transport. This paper explores some of the applications of SDM in access that have the potential for early adoption.
