Approximate analytic forms for the propagation characteristics of single-mode optical fibre

An approximate expression for the Petermann spot size is derived in terms of an extended form of the Marcuse spot size expression. When used in conjunction with the Rudolph-Neumann approximation it yields accurate forms for the propagation characteristics on single-mode fibres.
