`acceptance angle (fiber optics) Half the vertex angle of that
`cone within which optical power may be coupled into bound
`modes of an optical waveguide. Note.r.' 1. Acceptance angle
`is a function of position on the entrance face of the core when
`the refractive index is a function of radius in the core. In that
`case. the local acceptance angle is
`
`arcsin at l'l2(i") —- n2 2
`where rr(r') is the local refractive index and ll-3 is the minimum
`refractive index of the cladding. The sine of the local ac-
`ceptance angle is sometimes referred to as the local numerical
`aperture. 2. Power may be coupled into leaky modes at angles
`exceeding the acceptance angle. See n.l.rn.' launch numerical
`aperture; powervlaw index profile.

`to demonstrate the
`acceptance test (1) (A) (general) A test
`degree of compliance of a device with purchascr’s require-
`ments. (B) (general) A test demonstrating the quality of the
`units of a consignment, without implication of contractual
`relations between buyer and seller. Nn.re.' American National
`Standards should use tlte term “conformance test” as directed
`by the Standards Council of ANSI. rather than the term ac-
`ceptance test. Use of the tenn “conformance test“ avoids the
`implication of contractual relations between buyer and seller.
