Abstract
We propose a low-complexity unreplicated crosstalk canceller (UCC) that eliminates inter-channel interference in a weakly-coupled SDM link. Transmission experiment over installed step-index multicore fibre cables verifies that the UCC tripled the achievable transmission reach for PDM-16QAM signals even with inter-core crosstalk accumulation of -5 dB.
