Abstract

In this paper it is shown that time domain characterization of multimode fiber links and networks has certain advantages over the more popular frequency domain method. We show that by measuring the fiber impulse responses, in addition to the frequency response measurement, we gain knowledge on the complex frequency response and (up to some extent) on the modal distribution in the fiber. The measurements results are shown for a network consisting of a 2 km OM2 fiber and multimode passive coupler in various configurations.
