New MI characteristics are found in both normal and anomalous dispersion regimes. For the normal dispersion, without DMGD, no MI exists. With DMGD, a completely new MI band is generated as long as the total power is smaller than a critical total power value, named by Per, which increases significantly with the increment of DMGD, and reduces dramatically as GVD ratio and power ratio between the two modes increases. For the anomalous dispersion, there is one MI band without DMGD. In the presence of DMGD, the MI gain is reduced generally. On the other hand, there also exists a critical total power （Per）, which increases （decreases） distinctly with the increment of DMGD （GVD ratio of the two modes） but varies complicatedly with the power ratio between the two modes. Two MI bands are present for total power smaller than Per, and the dominant band can be switched between the low and high frequency bands by adjusting the power ratio between the two modes. The M1 analysis in this paper is verified by numerical simulation.展开更多

A fullvectorial finite difference mode solver is employed as the numerical tool for characterizing the proposed strain sensor. The numerical results show that the proposed strain sensor has an estimated sensitivity of 0.05 rad/（m-με）, higher than that of the strain sensors using conventional multimode fibers, while the temperature sensitivity of the proposed sensor is relatively low.展开更多
