Propagation characteristics of optical fibres - radiation loss and mode conversion from a localized inhomogeneity in a cladded fibre / G.L. Yip, J. Martucci and J.C.Y. Huang.: Co24-615/1974E-PDF

"This report considers the radiation and mode conversion losses in the cladded fiber due to a scattering center located on or near the fiber axis. The other loss mechanism, namely absorption loss by metallic impurities (e.g. Fe, Cu), had been treated in detail (see Report No. 2 to the Department of Supply and Services, Ottawa on Contract No. 01GR 36100-2-0204, Serial No. OGR2-0163). The radiation loss due to a scattering center was also treated in the same report. A summary of the materials is included here to provide some continuity of this report because radiation loss and mode conversion loss are closely related. A discussion to determine the minimum bend radius by the critical angle criterion is also presented"--Abstract, page 1.
