            Abstract : 
A space division multiplexed 1 × 4 and 2 × 4 multicore fiber with α-index profile is designed to meet the stringent requirements of high bandwidth density optical interconnects. By employing the proposed model, the effect of index parameter α on the crosstalk of multicore fiber is investigated under bent condition. Attributes of bend induced crosstalk is evaluated for variation in core to core pitch distances.
