The chromatic transfer function is explored with taking into account two wavelength used in optical LAN.We have investigated mode-depending parameters, namely, modal delay, modal attenuation and mode-coupling effects as a function of wavelength. We have reported that the number of excited mode groups depend strongly on spot radius beam when the fiber is excited with a Gaussian input beam. We have proved that, frequency response of silica optical fiber is comprised between 3 and 6 dBo for 850 and 1300nm when chromatic and modal effect is considered.","PeriodicalId":288004,"journal":{"name":"2009 18th Annual Wireless and Optical Communications Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125384062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
