  • Abstract
    Intramodal contributions in measurements of optical-fiber bandwidth are investigated theoretically and experimentally in the quasimonochromatic case. A relation is established between the intramodal transfer function and a possibly non-Gaussian source spectrum, which may also vary with modulation frequency. By considering the latter variation in particular, we are able to predict the intramodal length dependence and show how it may deviate from that of a conventional approach.
