Abstract
A method for selecting wide-band multimode optical fibers from a single wavelength, the method comprising the following steps of, for each multimode optical fiber obtaining a first DMD plot using a measurement of DMD carried out at a first single wavelength, obtaining from the first DMD plot, a first multimode fiber specification parameter; and for each fiber: obtaining from the first DMD plot, a curve representative of a radial offset delay, called ROD curve, as a function of the radial offset value; applying a linear fit on the ROD curve for at least two radial offset value ranges; obtaining from the linear fit and for each radial offset value range, an average radial offset delay slope, called ROD slope; selecting the multimode optical fibers meeting a first predetermined specification criterion for the first multimode fiber performance parameter, and for which the at least two computed ROD slopes meet a predetermined slope criterion.
