Ray power calculation in a section of tapered fiber

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi

I have an optical fiber simulation running on Comsol 5.1. I have a fiber with a tapered end and am using the Ray Optics module with rays tracing showing rays propagating along the fiber. I would like to calculate the power/transmittance in the cone at the tapered end.

How would I go about doing this?

I have used the Deposited Ray Power node to find transmittance with the fiber having an open end because it uses boundaries only, but I don't know how to do it with a cone end as this is a domain. I think it would have something to do with a volumetric integration. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
