  • Abstract
    An approach to calculate the waveguide dispersion, and consequently the chromatic dispersion, for graded index optical fibers is introduced. The fibers are characterized by a core refractive index of the graded type, including quadratic and biquadratic variations of the refractive index with the radial position. The index profile has two controlling parameters which are tailored to give minimum dispersion. The results are compared with published results, showing a fair agreement
