Abstract

In this paper a new version of previously reported two layers coated fiber is proposed with tightly jacketed layer of segmented Young´s modulus material for decreasing microbending loss. It is shown that an increase of thickness in 1st to 3rd and 8th layers causes a reduction in the fiber loss but on the contrary in layers from 4th to 7th an increase in loss is observed, higher values of Young´s moduli in the soft layers have increasing effects on fiber loss whereas in hard layers, the loss reduces
