Multi-core optical fiber for 5G-NR and B5G mm-wave cells communication / Fibra óptica multi-núcleo para comunicación de celdas 5G-NR y B5G en ondas milimétricas(MULTICORE+)

MULTICORE+ proposes to advance the field of optical transport and cellular networks introducing multi-core fiber (MCF)-based technology applied to 5G New-Radio and Beyond-5G (B5G) cellular networks in the millimeter-wave (mm-wave).

The specific research objectives of MULTICORE+ include, between others:

  1.  Development of optical beamforming technology employing MCF-based true time delays (TTD).
  2. Development RF mm-wave optical generation up to 330 GHz.
  3. Introduction of coherent detection in MCF systems.
