12、S - Part 1 : Generic specification FOREWORD 1) The I EC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote international co-operation on all que

13、stions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participa

14、te in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement be

15、tween the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested National Committees. 3) The document

16、s produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense. 4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC I

17、nternational Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its

18、 approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared 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 subject of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for iden

19、tifying any or all such patent rights. International standard IEC 61291 -1 has been prepared by subcommittee 86C: Fibre optic systems and active devices, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: Full information on the voting for the

20、 approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. Annexes A, B and C are for information only. . III 61291-1 O IEC:1998 - TIA/EIA-455-214 I NTRO DUCTI O N As far as can be determined, this is the first International Standard on the subject of optical fibre

21、 amplifiers. The technology is quite new and still emerging, hence amendments and new editions to this standard can be expected. Each abbreviation introduced is explained in the text at least the first time it appears. However, for an easier understanding of the whole text, a list of all abbreviatio

22、ns used is given in annex A. IV 61291-1 O IEC:1998 - TIA/EIA-455-214 TIA/EIA-455-214 - FOTP214 OPTICAL FIBRE AMPLIFIERS - Part 1 : Generic specification 1 General 1.1 Scope and object This part of IEC 61291 applies to optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs) and optically amplified, elementary subsystems. It

23、 applies only to OFAs using active fibres, containing rare-earth dopants, presently commercially available. The object of this standard is: to establish uniform requirements for transmission, operation, reliability and environmental properties of OFAs; to provide assistance to the purchaser in the s

24、election of consistently high-quality OFA products for his particular applications. NOTE -This International Standard has been prepared from the experience with Erbium-doped silica- based fibre amplifiers, operating in the 1 550 nm wavelength region. Future OFAs, based on different active fibres and

25、 possibly operating in different wavelengths regions, are not intended to be excluded from this International Standard and may lead to additional definitions and test methods, as well as to modifications of the existing ones. 1.2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisi

26、ons which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC 61291. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this part of IEC 61291 are encouraged to investigate the poss

27、ibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. Members of IEC and IS0 maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.

29、re amplifiers - Basic specification 1 61291-1 O IEC:1998 - TIA/EIA-455-214 1.3 Parameters Parameters specified for OFAs are those characterizing the transmission, operation, reliability and environmental properties of the OFA seen as a “black box” from a general point of view. In the sectional and d

30、etail specifications a subset of these parameters will be specified according to the type and application of the particular OFA device or subsystem. 2 Classification OFAs are devices which provide optical amplification using an optical fibre as the active medium. Conventional fibres can be used, exp

31、loiting non-linear effects, such as Raman and Brillouin stimulated emission. As indicated under the scope, this generic specification applies only to OFAs using active fibres, containing rare earth dopants and presently commercially available. Different categories of OFAs can be envisaged depending

32、on the composition of the active fibres used and the use of the OFA itself. These categories will be identified by a capital letter, a number and a lower case letter, as follows: Capital letter: A Number: 1 2 Pre-amplifiers 3 Line amplifiers 4 OAT (optically amplified transmitter) 5 OAR (optically a

33、mplified receiver) Lower case letter: a b c OFAs using silica-based fibres doped with Erbium ions to produce an active fibre. Power amplifiers (post-amplifiers or booster amplifiers) Amplifiers for analogue, single (wavelength) channel transmission Amplifiers for digital, single (wavelength) channel

34、 transmission Amplifiers for digital, multi-channel (wavelength) transmission EXAMPLE - Category A2b refers to optical pre-amplifiers for digital transmission which use a silica-based fibre doped with Erbium ions to produce an active fibre. The power amplifier is a high saturation-power OFA device t

35、o be used directly after the optical transmitter to increase its signal power level. The pre-amplifier is a very low noise OFA device to be used directly before an optical receiver to improve its sensitivity. 2 61291-1 O IEC:1998 - TIA/EIA-455-214 The line amplifier is a low noise OFA device to be u

36、sed between passive fibre sections to increase the regeneration lengths or in correspondence with a point-multipoint connection to compensate for branching losses in the optical access network. The OAT is an OFA subsystem in which a power amplifier is integrated with an optical transmitter, resultin

37、g in a higher power transmitter. The OAR is an OFA subsystem in which a pre-amplifier is integrated with an optical receiver, resulting in a higher sensitivity receiver. 3 Definitions For the purpose of this part of IEC 61291, the following definitions apply. The definitions listed in this clause re

38、fer to the meaning of the terms used in the specifications of OFAs. Only those parameters listed in the proper detail specification are intended to be specified. NOTE - The titles of all subclauses in clause 3 have been indexed and cross-referenced in annex B. The list of parameter definitions of OF

39、As, given in the following part of this clause, is divided into two parts: the first part lists those parameters relevant for OFA devices, namely power, pre and line- amplifiers; the second part lists the parameters relevant for optically amplified, elementary subsystems, namely the optically amplif

40、ied transmitter (OAT) and the optically amplified receiver (OAR). In any case where the value of a parameter is given for a particular device, it will be necessary to specify certain appropriate operating conditions such as temperature, bias current, pump optical power, etc. In this clause, two diff

41、erent operating conditions are referred to: nominal operating conditions, which are those suggested by the manufacturer for normal use of the OFA, and limit operating conditions, in which all the parameters adjustable by the user (e.g. temperature, gain, pump laser injection current, etc.) are at th

42、eir maximum values, according to the absolute maximum ratings stated by the manufacturer. The OFA shall be considered as a “black box“, as shown in figure 1. The OFA device shall have two optical ports, namely an input and an output port (figure la). The OAT and OAR are to be considered as OFA integ

43、rated on the transmitter side or on the receiver side, respectively. Both kinds of integration imply that the connection between the transmitter or the receiver and the OFA is proprietary and shall not be specified. Consequently, only the optical output port can be defined for the OAT (after the OFA

44、, as shown in figure lb) and only the optical input port can be defined for the OAR (before the OFA, as shown in figure IC). The optical ports may consist of unterminated fibres or optical connectors. Electrical connections for power supply (not shown in figure 1) are also necessary. Following this

45、“black box“ approach, the typical loss of one connection and the corresponding uncertainty will be included within the values of gain, noise figure and other parameters of the OFA device.

In addition other signals outside of the band of operating wavelength can in some applications, also cross the OFA. Th

47、e purpose of these out-of-band signals and their wavelength, or wavelength region, can be specified in the detail specifications. For category A OFAs, the operating wavelength will be .h the 550 nm region and the out-of-band wavelength may be specified in the detail specification. NOTE 1 - Except wh

48、ere noted, the optical powers mentioned in the following are intended as average powers. NOTE 2 - It should be noted that the measured optical powers are open beam powers: this can result in differences of about 0,18 dB in the measurement of absolute power levels. 3.1 OFA devices 3.1 .O gain in an O

49、FA which is externally connected to an input jumper fibre, the increase of signal optical power from the output end of the jumper fibre to the OFA output port, expressed in decibels NOTE 1 - The gain includes the connection loss between the input jumper fibre and the OFA input port. NOTE 2 - It is assumed that the jumper fibres are of the same type as the fibres used as input and output port of the OFA. NOTE 3 - Care should be taken to exclude the amplified spontaneous emission power from the signal optical powers. 3.1.1 small-signal gain gain of the amplifier, when operated in linear regim
