Abstract
A Cheby¿shev power-series approach is used for cutoff frequencies of the second mode in fibres with arbitrary refractive-index profiles. The method is fast because only a small number of terms is required to give high accuracy. A feature of this approach is that measured profiles can be used directly without being first converted to any specific forms. Examples are given as illustrations.
