Abstract :
The propagation in a fibre which does not exhibit any mode coupling is investigated by varying the launching conditions. It is shown that for this fibre there exists a trade-off between dispersion and power coupling efficiency. The measurements are compared to theoretical calculations taking leaky modes and material dispersion into account and good agreement is obtained.
