description

Acousto-optic interaction in optical fibers is exploited for the accurate and broadband characterization of two-mode fibers. Differential modal index, group delay, and group-velocity dispersion is obtained. The technique is suitable for the characterization of few-mode fibers used in space-division multiplexing.
