Abstract
A discrete coupling model is presented which describes accurately mode coupling effects induced by splices and micro-bending in MMF and their effect on amplitude and phase of the field. It is shown that the MMF transmission characteristics and power distribution is completely governed by the power coupling losses induced by modal coupling.
