Which effect creates increased bit errors within optical fiber at sharp bends?

💡 Explanation

Modal dispersion increases because sharp bends cause different modes to travel varied path lengths, therefore the different arrival times blur signals rather than Raman scattering, which is a nonlinear effect affecting wavelengths under high intensities.
