Analysis of the ellipticity and general scaling perturbation induced PMD in a transmitting fiber

Authors

Description

Presented is an analysis of general scaling perturbations in a transmitting fiber. For elliptical perturbations, under some conditions an intermode dispersion parameter characterizing modal PMD is shown to be directly proportional to the mode dispersion.
