14、L ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION _ GUIDANCE OF MEASUREMENT METHODS AND TEST PROCEDURES BASIC TESTS FOR POLARIZATION-MAINTAINING OPTICAL FIBRES FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committ

15、ees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical R

16、eports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental an

17、d non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreeme

18、nts of 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 IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and

19、 are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote i

20、nternational uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated

21、in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All

22、users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or

23、other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publicatio

24、n. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such pa

25、tent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for exampl

26、e “state of the art“. IEC/TR 62349, which is a technical report, has been prepared by subcommittee 86A: Fibres and cables, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2005. It constitutes a technical revision. In this edition,

27、guidance of measurement methods and test procedures for dimensional characteristics, cut-off wavelength, mode field diameter and beat length of polarization- maintaining optical fibres have been added. Thus, the title of the technical report is changed to “Guidance of measurement methods and test pr

28、ocedures Basic tests for polarization- maintaining optical fibres” from “Guidance for polarization crosstalk measurement of optical fibre”. PD IEC/TR 62349:2014TR 62349 IEC:2014(E) 5 The text of this technical report is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 86A/1488/DTR 86

29、A/1507/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this technical report can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication

30、will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual version of this publication

31、 may be issued at a later date.

However, when it is difficult to make measurements in the standard conditions, the

42、 test can be conducted in conditions other than the standard conditions provided that no doubts will arise about judgments. 5 Guidance for dimensional characteristics measurement of polarization- maintaining optical fibres 5.1 Object Clause 5 describes measurement methods and test procedures for the

43、 dimensional characteristics of uncoated PM optical fibres. 5.2 Overview of method This technical report gives measurement methods for dimensional characteristics of PM fibre which are given in terms of the following parameters: cladding diameter; cladding non-circularity; core concentricity error.

44、Two methods are described for measuring dimensional characteristics of PM fibre: Method A: Refracted near-field; Method B: Grey-scale technique of near-field light distribution. Information pertaining to each individual method is given in Annexes A and C of IEC 60793-1- 20:2001. Only notes for PM fi

45、bre are described below. For a general optical fibre, a circle-fitting is used to determine the core centre. However, as for the PM fibre, in particular the elliptical core PM fibre, the core centre cannot be determined if an ellipse-fitting is not used, because the fibre has an oval core. PD IEC/TR
