ABSTRACT

The steady-state microbending loss of step-index fibers is found to be, within the WKB approcimation, 6.27 (…/∆) dB/unit length, where … denotes the spectral density of the curvature process. The product of the square of the pulse broadening improvement factor R and loss L is 0.74 dB. Results are given for various excitation conditions.
