  • Publication number: 20220244481
    Abstract: A method of deriving a bonding pattern for intermittently bonding optical fibers includes generating a random number, which is an integer, converting the integer into a binary series corresponding to a width-bonding pattern, applying the width-bonding pattern at a predefined position along a width of the intermittently bonded optical fiber ribbon (100) and repeating to obtain a subsequent predefined position on the intermittently bonded optical fiber ribbon (100). In particular, ‘0’ represents the unbonded region if ‘1’ represents the bonded region and ‘0’ represents the bonded region if ‘ 1’ represents the unbonded region.
