A new configuration of mode-dependent-loss (MDL) equalizer for two linearly-polarized mode transmission systems using the silica planar lightwave circuit platform is proposed. This device acts as an LP01-mode attenuator (precisely, LP01/LP21 mode converter) to adjust the MDL keeping a high transmission of the LP11 modes. Almost all components constructing the device are based on the adiabatic mode conversion, which brings broadband operation. Especially, a newly proposed E12/E22 mode converter plays a key role in broadband MDL equalization. It is numerically revealed that the flattened spectra with designated transmission can be obtained for the wavelength from 1200 nm to 1650 nm.
