Bend Attenuation in Fiber Optic Transmission Formulas

Bend Attenuation refers to the loss of signal strength or optical power that occurs when light propagating through the fiber encounters a curve or bend. And is denoted by α_b. Bend Attenuation is usually measured using the Decibel per Meter for Attenuation. Note that the value of Bend Attenuation is always positive.
