Electrical spectrum measurements of dispersion in higher order mode fibers

We present a novel technique for measuring the chromatic dispersion of the higher order mode of an optical fiber. The measurement technique is simple, accurate, and capable of measuring the dispersion of kilometer lengths of fiber without the need for mode converters. The dispersion of the LP/sub 02/ mode is measured for several different fibers, and accuracies of better than 1%, compared with a measurement with the modulation phase shift method, are achieved.
