ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic mode conditioner for obtaining an equilibrium light distribution in a multimode fiber optic link under test. Light is supplied to the link through a gap between two successive fiber optic segments, followed by a high-curvature region created by wrapping the second fiber optic segment around a mandrel. The gap functions as a mode filter, stripping off all but the lowest modes, while the curved region acts as a mode scrambler redistributing the light energy into the intermediate modes.
