An analysis of the modal propagation characteristics of a Bragg fiber having asymmetric loop boundary is made, using a simple matrix method. The boundary condition is replaced by matrix equation andthe modal eigen value equation is obtainedunder weak guidance condition. The computed results are shown in the form of d ispersion curves andcutoff frequencies andare comparedwith the dispersion curves of a standard Bragg fiber having circular core cross section. It is seen that the proposedBragg fiber with a small number of claddings (two of four) shows comparable or even better performance than the standard Bragg fiber with respect to a few mode-guidance properties.
