Propagation characteristics of curved optical fibres
Propagation characteristics of curved optical fibres
Experimental and theoretical studies have been carried out on propagation in curved single-mode optical fibres. Mode conversion at the start of a bend produces a transition region which affects the bend loss, transverse energy distribution and gives rise to ray emission. It is shown that the modes of a curved multimode fibre can be conveniently and simply described using parabolic cylindrical co-ordinates.

Abstract
Experimental and theoretical studies have been carried out on propagation in curved single-mode optical fibres. Mode conversion at the start of a bend produces a transition region which affects the bend loss, transverse energy distribution and gives rise to ray emission. It is shown that the modes of a curved multimode fibre can be conveniently and simply described using parabolic cylindrical co-ordinates.
