Example sentence:

This coefficient is called the PMD coefficient (PMDCoeff) and is typically measured in units of picoseconds per square root kilometer (ps/km1/2).

Numerous experiments with fibers of different lengths have revealed that the PMD of the fiber is proportional to the square root of the fiber length (L) multiplied by a proportionality coefficient
