Launch light dependency of step-index multimode fiber connections analyzed by modal power distribution using
Abstract:
The propagating modal power distribution (MPD) of step-index multimode fibers (SI-MMFs), which strongly influences the performance of systems and components composed of these fibers, has not often been discussed, because, until recently, there has been no definition to show the MPD. Encircled angular flux (EAF) is a newly developed metric for defining the MPD in step-index multimode waveguides including fibers standardized by the International Electrotechnical Commission. Using the combined analysis of EAF and insertion loss, we studied the launch light dependency of SI-MMF connections. Our studies contribute to enhancing both current applications and future higher data rate communications using SI-MMFs.
