Abstract
The evolution of the optical transport network with technologies such as space and wavelength multiplex switching have introduced multi path propagation, unwanted or wanted. The unwanted propagation are often called crosstalk. When the carrier frequency of the crosstalk are within the electrical bandwidth of the main signal, fading effects similar to radio propagation occurs. These effects are often called interferometric crosstalk.
