Abstract
An optical fiber has two or more core regions disposed within a common cladding region. Each of the core regions is configured to guide a respective light transmission comprising at least one optical mode along the length of the fiber. The cores are arranged within the common cladding region according to a core configuration that substantially prevents crosstalk between modes of neighboring cores in the fiber, in a deployment of the fiber in which cross-coupling between neighboring cores is affected by perturbations arising in the deployed fiber.
