Abstract
A method of manufacturing a porous glass preform includes depositing glass particles on an outer periphery of a target rod while a burner for synthesizing glass particles and the target rod that is rotating are relatively reciprocated, wherein V and r are gradually reduced while a variation in sweeping pitch P [mm] expressed as V/r is caused to be within a range of a central value±10% when a glass particle deposition layer of a portion satisfying a relation 0.5 L≤R≤0.8 L is synthesized; where a final outer diameter of the manufactured porous glass preform for an optical fiber is L [mm], an outer diameter of a glass particle deposition body in the middle of the manufacture is R [mm], a rotating speed of the target rod is r [rpm], and a relative moving speed between the target rod and the burner is V [mm/min.].
