Dispersion Spreading in Multimode Fibers
Modal dispersion is a distortion mechanism occurring in and other, in which the signal is spread in time because the of the optical signal is not the same for all. Other names for this phenomenon include multimode distortion, multimode dispersion, modal distortion, intermodal distortion, intermodal dispersion, and intermodal delay distortion. At the transmitter, a spatial light modulator (SLM) controls the launched field pattern.
