We propose a simple method for measuring the mode power of two-mode fiber based on the bending method. The mode power ratio is determined with better than 1dB accuracy by undertaking three power measurements with different numbers of fiber bends. We also evaluate the estimation error of the proposed method and the required resolution of the measurement.
