Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) Mode Mixing in a Bent Step Index Fiber in Perturbation Theory: Multiple Bends

In this article, we address the impact of multiple fiber bends on orbital angular momentum (OAM) mode propagation in a fiber. In particular, we extend the OAM mode-mixing due to a single-fiber bend studied earlier in detail for the step-index fiber, to the case of a succession of bends. The bends ma...
