Components for Single-Strand Multimode Fiber Systems.

Abstract

This program investigated input-output coupling techniques capable of providing full duplex operation on a single strand, multimode fiber waveguide; used the optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) to determine fiber attenuation characteristics; investigated the steady-state mode-mixing phenomena of a 4-km length of graded-index fiber; improved the OTDR; and developed low-insertion-loss bi-directional access couplers for multimode fiber waveguides.
