Characterization of space-division multiplexing systems using a swept-wavelength interferometer

We present single-scan measurements of the transfer matrix of space-division multiplexed systems including the mode-multiplexers and fibers. We obtain the mode-dependent loss, and differential group delay over 110-nm of bandwidth of a 4.7-km 3-mode fiber.
