Abstract
In this article mathematical models for estimation calculation of birefringence components for step-index optical fiber with a microcrack on the waveguide cladding are considered. Dependences of geometrical and mechanical birefringence components and beat length on the geometrical microcrack size are received. Results of calculation indicate potential possibility of detection of local defects on the waveguide cladding.
