Abstract :
The time-dispersion measurement technique here reported, based on a differential mode-delay measurement, is a very simple one (only one modulation frequency is used); but, nevertheless, it has good features in accuracy and repeatability It allows investigation of the mechanisms of fibre time dispersion and the effect of leaky rays.
