A comparative study of fiber type (refractive index profile)
Keywords:
Optical fiber, single mode fiber, multi mode fiber bandwidth, dispersion performanceAbstract
The single mode fibers are the best option when the distance of communication is very high.Bandwidth
requirement in this process is the primary concern. This fiber shows the best dispersion performance and hence has the
highest bandwidth out of the fiber types. Hence information carrying capacity in the single mode fiber is higher than
other types of fibers (multimode step index, multimode graded index)
