Coupled-Mode Theory for Optical Fibers

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of coupled-mode equations is derived to describe mode propagation in uniform and slightly nonuniform cylindrical optical-fiber systems, and the coupling between fibers of an array made up of n identical fibers each at the vertex of a polygon and one at the center, which is not necessarily the same as its n neighbors, is determined.
