Abstract :
Transmission of light within a multimode fibre introduces randomization of laser beam amplitude, phase and polarization. We discuss the importance of each of these factors and introduce a technique allowing full analysis of the light transmission through the multimode fibre and subsequent beam-shaping using a spatial light modulator.
