Abstract
In this work, a simple method based on optical time-domain reflectometry has been implemented to compare the Rayleigh scattering coefficient of different modes of few-mode fibers. The principle of the method is first validated in the case of single-mode fibers and then applied to two weakly-coupled few-mode fibers presenting different refractive index profiles. The results are compared with those obtained by more sophisticated experiments based on the analysis of the angular distribution of light scattering.
