Trellis coded modulation transmission over 40km 6-LP mode fiber

We demonstrate transmission of trellis-coded-modulated-12-spatial-and-polarization modes over 40km 6-LP-mode fiber with low differential mode group delay. By employing 8-PSK trellis coded modulation, an OSNR gain of 1.8dB is observed in comparison to QPSK.
