Abstract
This paper reviews optical fiber design evolution for transmission systems
over the past three decades, including both multimode and single-modes fibers.
Key fiber attributes related to fiber transmission systems and how fiber designs
have evolved to improve these attributes to enable higher and higher transmission
data rate are discussed. Major fiber design change milestones in the past
are covered. Also discussed are recent new developments in optical fiber technology.
