The polarization properties of highindexellipticalcore Bragg fibers are investigated via fullvector finite element method with anisotropic perfectly matched layer boundary conditions. The dependence of mode birefringence and group velocity walkoff on the fiber structural parameters has been fully analyzed. It is shown that the birefringence of highindexellipticalcore Bragg fiber is on the magnitude order of 10-2, which is at least ten times that of the conventional polarizationmaintaining fiber, and the walkoff parameters exhibit quite unusual wavelength dependence different from that of conventional polarizationmaintaining fibers. These unusual properties allow the flexible combination of high birefringence and large or zero walkoff at suitable wavelengths,and it contains potential application value. And the influence on the polarization properties imposed by the refractiveindex variance in the lowindex region is also briefly discussed. The results is helpful for the design of microstructured polarization-maintaining fibers with high performance.
