English term or phrase: numerical aperture measurement
I know that NA is called Numerische Apertur in German - what I'm having difficulties with is the translation of the measurement method described below:
NA is measured at the one percent power level of a one-dimensional far-field scan at 1310 nm.

Thank you!

Messung der numerischen Apertur


Explanation:
Die numerische Apertur ist das Produkt aus dem Brechungsindex und der Apertur (Ref.: A. Kucera, The Compact Dictionary of Exact Science and Technology). Je größer die NA ist, desto mehr Listleistung kann in einen Lichtwellenleiter eingekoppelt werden.
