The refractive index of a fiber core of a few mode optical fiber is n1. A cladding layer surrounding the fiber core includes: a downward-concave cladding layer surrounding the fiber core, the refractive index thereof is n2; a first upward-convex cladding layer surrounding the downward-concave cladding layer, the refractive index thereof is n3; a second upward-convex cladding layer surrounding the first upward-convex cladding layer, the refractive index thereof is n4; an outer layer surrounding the second upward-convex cladding layer, the refractive index thereof is n5. The refractive indexes of the fiber core, the downward-concave cladding layer, the first upward-convex cladding layer, the second upward-convex cladding layer, the outer layer satisfy: n&#x3e;n3&#x3e;n&#x3e;n&#x3e;n. The fiber is a non-single mode in a direct waveguide state, and equivalent single-mode transmission can be achieved when the optical fiber is bent at a specific bending radius.

Few-mode optical fiber

Provided is a few-mode optical fiber. The optical fiber includes: a core and a cladding enclosing the core. The cladding includes: a first inner cladding surrounding the core; a first high-refractive-index mode filter layer surrounding the first inner cladding; a second inner cladding surrounding the first high-refractive-index mode filter layer; a second high-refractive-index mode filter layer surrounding the second inner cladding; and an outer cladding surrounding the second high-refractive-index mode filter layer.
