Caption

Fig. 1. Attenuation measurements of ground-drawn (blue lines) and space-drawn (redlines) fibers in logarithmic scale: (A) single-index fibers and (B) step-index fibers. The samples are coded as X-Y#-B#z, where X refers to S (space) or G (ground), Y refers to AR for specific single-index fibers and A for specific step-index fibers distinguished by their fiber numbers #, B refers to a fiber band with a specific number #, z refers to the institution that measured a specific fiber band sample (a = IPHT, b = AU, c = IMiF, d = DTU; see the Characterization techniques section for details of these institution acronyms).
