Impact of Intercore Crosstalk on the Transmission Distance of QAM Formats in Multicore Fibers

We investigate the impact of intercore crosstalk on the achievable transmission distance of three square quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) formats. We show that increasing intercore crosstalk across an 18 dB range starting from −43.4 dB/100 km reduces the achievable transmission dista...
