By measuring 160 wires in parallel universal conductance, fluctuations could be suppressed so that the characteristic beating effect in the magnetorestistance was observable down to very low magnetic fields. A characteristic shift of the nodes in the beating pattern was found for decreasing wire width. By assuming a realistic soft-wall potential, the experimentally observed node positions could be reproduced. For the range of measured wires, our study confirms that the Rashba coupling parameter does not change with wire width.
