Acceptance angle of a typical step index fiber with a fiber core of refractive index n1 greater than refractive index n2 of cladding. Light ray A outside the acceptance angle escapes into the cladding; Light ray B within the acceptance angle is guided through the fiber by total internal reflection and can therefore be detected by a CCD.
