Abstract

This chapter briefly describes pioneering Japanese national projects on SDM technologies, namely i-FREE (Innovative Optical Fiber Technologies: 2010–2012), i-ACTION (Innovative Optical Communication Infrastructure: 2011–2015), and i-FREE2 (Innovative Optical Fiber and Communication Technology for Exa-bit Era with SDM: 2013–2018), which led to setting a series of transmission capacity records per fiber of 1 Pbit/s (2012), 2 Pbit/s (2015), and 10 Pbit/s (2017) as well as capacity-distance product record of 1 Ebit/s·km (2013).
