  • Abstract
    Using previously established analytical formulas, we consider the increase in bandwidth and loss due to mode coupling for graded-index fibres, with an index gradient that slightly differs from its optimal shape. Results show that the maximum possible length of a typical link can be increased by 100%. if well controlled mode coupling is induced.
