Abstract
A bearing-ball-bed mode mixer is compared with mandrel wrap, 70% excitation and newly developed taper mode filters in the approximation of the stationary mode group power distribution (SMPD) of different fibers. The mode group power is computed from the near-field intensity pattern (NFP) and compared with results from differential mode delay measurements.
