Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to present an effective modal analysis method for a class of recently developed optical fibers with multiple cores. The main feature of the method is to combine the point-matching procedure with group theory to solve such complicated boundary value problems. The results of the numerical computations are compared with those of microwave simulation experiments.
