1. Establish the expression of the index profile n(r) in the fiber core.
2. Calculate the value of the numerical aperture of this fiber. What information is
available from this value?
An incoming optical ray is injected in the optical core at the position where r=0 (on
the fiber axis).
3. Determine the rmax position of the light ray in the fiber in the three following case :
a. 0 =10 ;
b. 0 =15 ;
c. 0 =20 ;
4. Give a simple but as correct as possible representation of the rays trajectories for these
3 angles 0.
