METHOD FOR CHARACTERIZING PERFORMANCE OF A MULTIMODE FIBER OPTICAL LINK AND CORRESPONDING METHODS FOR FABRICATING A MULTIMODE OPTICAL FIBER LINK SHOWING IMPROVED PERFORMANCE AND FOR IMPROVING PERFORMANCE OF A MULTIMODE OPTICAL FIBER LINK
METHOD FOR CHARACTERIZING PERFORMANCE OF A MULTIMODE FIBER OPTICAL LINK AND CORRESPONDING METHODS FOR FABRICATING A MULTIMODE OPTICAL FIBER LINK SHOWING IMPROVED PERFORMANCE AND FOR IMPROVING PERFORMANCE OF A MULTIMODE OPTICAL FIBER LINK
Disclosed is a method of characterizing a multimode optical fiber link including a light source and two or more multimode fibers. The method includes a step of characterizing each of said multimode fibers using a measurement of the Dispersion Modal Delay (DMD) for each of said multimode fibers, and delivering, for each of said multimode fibers, at least three fiber characteristic curves as a function of a radial offset value r; a step of characterizing the light source by at least three source characteristic curves showing at least three parameters of the source as a function of a fiber radius r and obtained by a technique similar to the DMD measurement; and a step of computing an Effective Bandwidth (EB) of the link, comprising calculating a transfer function using both each of said source characteristic curves and each of said at least three fiber characteristic curves for each of said multimode fibers.
