摘要： A multicore fiber comprises a plurality of cores extending along the length of a fiber body. Each of the cores is surrounded by a cladding. The plurality of cores and surrounding cladding provide respective index variations, so as to form a respective plurality of waveguides for conducting parallel data transmissions from a first end of the fiber to a second end. The plurality of cores has a cross-sectional geometry in which the plurality of cores is configured in a polygonal array, in which at least some of the cores are positioned at the vertices of the array. The polygonal array is configured such that neighboring cores in the array are separated from each other by a distance that is sufficient to prevent crosstalk therebetween.

摘要翻译： 多芯纤维包括沿着纤维体的长度延伸的多个芯。 每个芯都被包层包围。 多个芯和周围的包层提供相应的折射率变化，以便形成用于进行从光纤的第一端到第二端的并行数据传输的相应的多个波导。 多个芯具有横截面几何形状，其中多个芯被配置为多边形阵列，其中至少一些芯位于阵列的顶点处。 多边形阵列被配置为使得阵列中的相邻核心彼此分开足以防止它们之间的串扰的距离。
