Abstract

In the application of optical fiber telecommunications and sensing, we will meet the situations how to decrease splicing loss and find an optimized splicing process to splice two fibers that have much different characteristics such as mode field diameter and refractive index difference. We analyzed the existed measuring methods and found that these methods are not enough accurate and are not suitable to monitor splicing process instantly. We designed a new method that can be used to measure splice loss accurately and at the same time to monitor the splicing process and find optimum splicing program parameters.
