- Limitations of Transmission Distances Over Multimode Fiber
- Multimode fiber simply refers to the fact that numerous modes or light rays are carried simultaneously through the waveguide. One key characteristic of a multimode fiber is its modal bandwidth. It represents the capacity of a fiber to transmit a certain amount of information over a certain distance and is...

- Multimode Precoding for MIMO Wireless Systems
- Multiple-Input Multiple-Output MIMO wireless systems obtain large diversity and capacity gains by employing multielement antenna arrays at both the transmitter and receiver. The theoretical performance benefits of MIMO systems, however, are irrelevant unless low error rate, spectrally efficient signaling techniques are found. This paper proposes a new method for designing...

- Quantized Multi-Mode Precoding for Spatial Multiplexing MIMO-OFDM Systems
- Spatial multiplexing with multi-mode precoding can achieve both high capacity and high reliability in Multiple-Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. Multimode precoding uses linear transmit precoding but adapts the number of transmit streams or modes according to the channel conditions. Multi-mode precoding typically requires complete knowledge of the transmit...
