Abstract

Multimode/multicore fibers are expected to provide an attractive solution to overcome the capacity limit of the current optical communication system. In the presence of strong crosstalk between modes and/or cores, the squared singular values of the input/output transfer matrix follow the law of the Jacobi ensemble of random matrices. Assuming that the channel state information is only available at the receiver, we derive a new expression for the ergodic capacity of the MIMO Jacobi fading channel. The proposed expression involves double integrals which can be easily evaluated for a high-dimensional MIMO scenario. Moreover, the method used in deriving this expression does not appeal to the classical one-point correlation function of the random matrix model. Using a limiting transition between Jacobi and associated Laguerre polynomials, we derive a similar formula for the ergodic capacity of the MIMO Rayleigh fading channel. Moreover, we derive a new exact closed-form expressions for the achievable sum rate of MIMO Jacobi and Rayleigh fading channels employing linear minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receivers. The analytical results are compared to the results obtained by Monte Carlo simulations and the related results available in the literature, which shows perfect agreement.

  • To accommodate the exponential growth of data traffic over the last few years, the space division multiplexing (SDM) based on multicore optical fiber (MCF) or multimode optical fiber (MMF) is expected to overcome the barrier from capacity limit of single core fiber [1]–[3]

  • Assuming that the channel state information is only available at the receiver, we derive a new expression for the ergodic capacity of the multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) Jacobi fading channel

  • We provide a new expression for the ergodic capacity of the MIMO Jacobi fading channel relying this time on the formula derived in [24] for the moments of the eigenvalues density of the Jacobi random matrix

Summary

INTRODUCTION

To accommodate the exponential growth of data traffic over the last few years, the space division multiplexing (SDM) based on multicore optical fiber (MCF) or multimode optical fiber (MMF) is expected to overcome the barrier from capacity limit of single core fiber [1]–[3]. We provide a new expression for the ergodic capacity of the MIMO Jacobi fading channel relying this time on the formula derived in [24] for the moments of the eigenvalues density of the Jacobi random matrix. By a limiting transition between Jacobi and associated Laguerre polynomials [25], we derive a similar expression for the ergodic capacity of the MIMO Rayleigh fading channel [21]. Using the derived expressions and the work of McKay et al [41], we are able to derive closed-form formulas for the achievable sum-rate of MIMO Jacobi and Rayleigh fading channels employing linear minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receivers.
