| Abstract: | Group delay spread of coupled three-core fiber is investigated based on coupled-wave theory. The differences between supermode and discrete core mode models are thoroughly investigated to reveal applicability of both models for specific fiber bending condition. A macrobending with random twisting is taken into account for random modal mixing in the fiber. It is found that for weakly bent condition, both supermode and discrete core mode models are applicable. On the other hand, for strongly bent condition, the discrete core mode model should be used to account for increased differential modal group delay for the fiber without twisting and short correlation length, which were experimentally observed recently. Results presented in this paper indicate the discrete core mode model is superior to the supermode model for the analysis of coupled-multicore fibers for various bent condition. Also, for estimating GDS of coupled-multicore fiber, it is critically important to take into account the fiber bending condition. |
