Abstract
The purpose of this article is to analyze the impact of an index segmentation on the ray dispersion in the geometrical approach. The presented study reveals that a periodic index segmentation of the waveguide along with a transverse gaussian index variation exhibits complex ray dynamics that strongly modify ray dispersion properties.
