Over the next couple of years , Shaw expects demand on global network capacity to drive new innovation in IP communications . “ We ’ re developing new technologies to dramatically increase the capacity of the global networks , such as multi-core , multi-mode fiber optic that allows high-capacity transmission with a transmission rate on a single optical fiber that exceeds the current rate by a factor of 100 to 1,000 . We ’ re also making advances in wireless networking , we succeeded in wireless transmission rates of 100 Gb / sec by using a method devised by NTT combining a principle called “ OAM Multiplexing ” with MIMO technology . This generates multiple radio waves of different frequencies so that they can transmit simultaneously without interfering with each other .
