18、ctrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprisingall national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promoteinternational co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. T

19、othis end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation isentrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with mayparticipate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental o

20、rganizations liaisingwith the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organizationfor Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the twoorganizations.2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on tec

21、hnical matters express, as nearly as possible, aninternational consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representationfrom all interested National Committees.3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in

22、the formof standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the NationalCommittees in that sense.4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC InternationalStandards transparently to the maximum extent possib

23、le in their national and regional standards. Anydivergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearlyindicated in the latter.5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for anyequipment declar

24、ed to be in conformity with one of its standards.6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subjectof patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.International Standard IEC 61300-

33、 Basic test andmeasurement procedures Part 3-39: Examinations and measurements PC optical connectorreference plug selection3 General descriptionFour methods will be presented for measuring optical return loss: measurement with an optical continuous wave reflectometer (OCWR) (method 1); measurement w

34、ith an optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) (method 2); measurement with an optical low coherence reflectometry (OLCR) (method 3); measurement with an optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) (method 4).These four measurement methods have different characteristics and different applications

35、 interms of spatial resolution and detectable RL (in annex A a comparison of return lossdetectable by the four different methods is reported). 6 61300-3-6 IEC:2003(E)3.1 Method 1This technique is the nearest to the theoretical definition of return loss given by equation (1). Itmeasures directly the

36、incident power and the reflected power. It is not affected by instrumentaldata processing and it gives absolute measurement values, which are not relative to areference reflection (technique A). This method has some limiting factors: it cannot spatiallyresolve two different reflections on the line a

37、nd its dynamic range is limited by thecharacteristics of the branching device and by the ability to suppress the reflections beyond theone from the DUT.3.2 Method 2This method allows measurement of RL from reflection points on an optical line, with a spatialresolution in the metre range and with a d

38、ynamic range of more than 75 dB (depending on thepulse width) using an OTDR instrument.The OTDR measurement method is very suitable for field measurements where it is necessaryto measure RLs on long optical lines.3.3 Method 3The purpose of this method is to measure reflection profiles of single-mode

39、 optical devices witha micrometre spatial resolution and a high dynamic range (90 dB) by using optical low-coherence interference.The reflection profile is defined as a distribution of reflections at individual end-faces and/orconnected points in single-mode optical devices. When the reflection at a

40、 particular point isR (dB), the return loss at this point is given by R (dB). This method measures the reflection ata point by detecting the power of a beat signal produced by optical interference between thereflected light and the reference light. When a component with dispersed reflections isanaly

41、sed, each reflection can be identified and located, provided their separation is greaterthan the spatial resolution of the measurement system.3.4 Method 4The purpose of this procedure is to measure the return loss of single-mode optical devices witha spatial resolution in the centimetre range and hi

42、gh dynamic range (70 dB) by using opticalfrequency domain reflectometryOne of the prime benefits of this technique is the ability to spatially resolve the desiredreflection from undesired ones, such as all of the connectors or unterminated ports on theDUT, without any dead zone. Moreover, the OFDR m

43、ethod is highly reliable and the apparatuscan be compact.Measurement in the frequency domain is based on the ability to convert information in the timedomain by means of an inverse Fourier transform. In this way with a source modulated fromsome kHz to 1 GHz, it is possible to resolve two reflective

44、points on an optical line separatedby some centimetres.3.5 Selection of reference measurement methodDue to the different characteristics of these methods, and their different application fields, thereference method depends on the type of DUT. For a component with RL 55 dB the referenceis method 1, f

45、or a component with RL 55 dB the reference is method 2 using a pulse durationless than 100 ns. In cases in which it is necessary to resolve more reflection points separatedby a distance of less than 5 m, the reference shall be method 3.61300-3-6 IEC:2003(E) 7 4 Apparatus and symbols4.1 Device under

46、test (DUT)Where the DUT is the mounted connector on one end of a component, the reference matingplug shall be considered one-half of the DUT connection on the temporary joint (TJ) side andhave the same end-face finish and minimum performance as the connectors to be measured.Where the DUT is an entir

47、e component assembly terminated with pigtails with or withoutconnectors, reference plugs with pigtails and, as required, reference adapters are to be addedto those ports with connector terminations so as to form complete connector assemblies withpigtails. Reference mating plugs shall then be conside

48、red one-half of the TJ and have thesame end-face finish and minimum performance as the connectors to be measured. All unusedports shall be terminated as stated in 4.2.5.Unless otherwise specified, reference plugs shall meet IEC 61300-3-39. The referenceadapters shall meet the appropriate IEC connect

49、or interface dimensions and ensure a highdegree of repeatability and reproducibility. It is recommended that the test adapters be testedand visually inspected after every 100 matings and replaced after 500 matings.4.2 Method 1: measurements with OCWRT1PaPref.D1S1BDDUTTJ1D2IEC 030/03Figure 1 Measurement set-up of return loss OCWR methodThe circuit in Figure 1 is representative of, but is not the only, circuit that
