19、e fiber.1.2 ScopeThis document defines three methods of measuring Aeff. Information common to all themethods is found in the body of this document. Information specific to each method isfound in a normative annex. The three methods are:A Direct far-field (DFF)B Variable aperture in the far-field (VA

20、MFF)C Near-field (NF)The reference method, used to resolve disputes, is Method A, direct far-field.1.3 BackgroundEffective area is an optical attribute that is specified for single-mode fibers and used insystem designs that may be affected by the nonlinear refractive index coefficient, n2.There is a

21、greement in both national and international Standards bodies for thedefinition used in this document. Methods A, B, and C have been recognized asproviding equivalent results, provided that good engineering is used in implementation.The direct far-field is the reference method because it is the most

22、direct method and isnamed as the reference method for mode field diameter in the ITU.1.4 MappingA mapping function is a formula by which the measured results of one attribute are used topredict the value of another attribute on a given fiber. For a given fiber type and design, themode field diameter

23、 (MFD) can be used to predict the effective area with a mappingfunction. A mapping function is specific to a particular fiber type and design. Mappingfunctions are generated by doing an experiment in which a sample of fiber is chosen torepresent the spectrum of values of both MFD and for the fiber t

24、ype and in which the fibersCopyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA/EIA-455-132A2in the sample are measured for both MFD and Aeff. Linear regression can be used todet

25、ermine the fitting coefficient, k, as defined by the following:AkMFDeff=Ge6Ge8Ge7Gf6Gf8Gf722(1)Note: Other mathematical models may be used if they are more generally accurate.2 Normative referencesFOTP-57 (TIA/EIA-455-57B) Preparation and Examination of Optical Fiber Endfacefor Testing PurposesFOTP-

ApparatusAnnexes A, B, and C include schematics for each method.3.1 Light sourceUse a suitable coherent or noncoherent light source, such as a semiconductor laser ora sufficiently powerful filtered white light or LED source. The source

29、shall be stable inintensity and wavelength over a time period sufficient to perform the measurement.The wavelength of the source shall be specified in the Detail Specification. Unlessotherwise specified in the Detail Specification, the spectral line width shall be less thanor equal to 10 nm Full Wid

30、th at Half-Maximum (FWHM).3.2 Input opticsUse an optical lens system or fiber pigtail to excite the test fiber. Couple the power intothe test fiber so it is insensitive to the position of the input end face. This can be donewith a launch beam that spatially and angularly overfills the test fiber. If

31、 a butt splice isused, use index matching fluid to avoid interference effects. The coupling shall bestable for the duration of the test.3.3 Cladding mode stripperUse a device that extracts cladding modes. The fiber coating will typically perform thisfunction.3.4 High order mode filterUse a method to

32、 remove higher order modes whenever they are capable ofpropagating. (Refer to the procedures in FOTP-77 for guidance). For example, a one-turn bend of diameter 30 mm in the test fiber is generally sufficient.3.5 ComputerOptionally, use a computer to control the apparatus, take intensity measurements

33、, andcompute the final result.Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA/EIA-455-132A44 Sampling and specimens4.1 Specimen lengthPrepare the single-mode fiber test spec

For theoutput end, “Always Acceptable” or “Usually Acceptable” ar

Calculation procedures are given in theannexes.6.1 Near-fieldEffective area, Aeff, is defined from the near-field intensity distribution, I(r), r being theradial distance from the center of the mode field profile, through the following equation:()()AIrrdrIr rdreff=G

47、enceFigure 1 - Test set-up for the direct far-field measurementA.1.1 Detector and apertureUse a detector, such as a PIN diode, that has enough dynamic range, i.e, 50 dB downfrom the maximum power at zero degrees, and that is linear over the range ofintensities that are encountered. The “detection fl

48、oor” or “baseline noise” of thedetector should be minimized so as to maximize the usable dynamic range of thesystem. A minimum of 50 dB of usable dynamic range is recommended. The detectorshall be placed a distance of at least 100 2wfrom the test fiber end face, where 2w isthe nominal mode field diameter of the test fiber and is the nominal measurementwavelength. The angle subtended by the aperture in front of the detector shall be lessthan or equal to 0.5 degree in either dimension.Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for Resal
