The present disclosure relates to system applications of multicore optical fibers. One embodiment relates to a base transceiver station for a wireless telecommunication system comprising a plurality of antenna units arranged in a MIMO configuration and adapted for transmission and/or reception of radio-frequency signals, an optical transmitter in the form of an electro-optic conversion unit for each of said plurality of antenna units, each electro-optic conversion unit adapted for converting an RF signal into an optical signal, a plurality of a single core optical fibers for guiding the optical signals, and at least one first space division multiplexing (SDM) unit adapted for multiplexing said single core optical fibers into respective individual cores of a multicore fiber, or into respective individual modes of a multimode fiber.

A mode locked fiber laser system is arranged to have a lasing bandwidth and having a linear cavity, the cavity including a gain medium, a saturable absorber having a saturation power, and a filter having a spectral response, wherein the mode locked fiber laser system is arranged so that substantial CW mode locked operation is obtainable with less than 3 times the saturation fluence impinging on the saturable absorber.
