19、ROADCASTING SYSTEMS FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning st

20、andardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their prepar

21、ation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely wi

22、th the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant sub

23、jects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technica

24、l 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 international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent

25、possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any e

26、quipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All 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 an

27、d IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or 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) A

28、ttention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. 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

29、. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. A PAS is a technical specification not fulfilling the requirements for a standard, but made available to the public. IEC-PAS 62593 has been processed by IEC technical committee 103: Transmitting equipment for radio co

30、mmunication. The text of this PAS is based on the following document: This PAS was approved for publication by the P-members of the committee concerned as indicated in the following document Draft PAS Report on voting 103/74/PAS 103/81/RVD Following publication of this PAS, which is a pre-standard p

31、ublication, the technical committee or subcommittee concerned may transform it into an International Standard. This PAS shall remain valid for an initial maximum period of 3 years starting from the publication date. The validity may be extended for a single 3-year period, following which it shall be

32、 revised to become another type of normative document, or shall be withdrawn. DD IEC/PAS 62593:2008PAS 62593 IEC:2008(E) 5 INTRODUCTION A variety of microwave-photonic devices are used in wireless communication and broadcasting systems. An optical modulator is an interface which converts an electron

33、ic signal into an optical signal. In the field of optical fibre communication systems, the IEC 62007 series “Semiconductor optoelectronic devices for fibre optic system applications“ has been published. In the field of wireless systems, specifications of inter-modulation and composite distortion of

34、modulators have been an important issue and have typically been negotiated between users and suppliers. During an International Meeting on Microwave Photonics, a proposal was announced to address standardizations for key-devices for Radio over Fibre (RoF) systems. The RoF system is comprised mainly

35、of two parts; one is the RF to photonic converter (E/O), and the other is photonic to RF converter (O/E). Radio waves are converted into an optical signal at E/O, and the signal is transferred into the optical fibre, and then the radio waves are regenerated at O/E. The nonlinear distortion character

36、istics of both E/O and O/E are important for the performance of the system. Semiconductor photodiodes are commonly used for O/E. Several types of optical modulator are used for E/O, such as Mach-Zehnder modulators, electro-absorption modulators and directly modulated LDs. This PAS has been prepared

37、in order to provide industry standard measurement methods for evaluating electro-optic material based Mach-Zehnder optical modulators to be used in wireless communication and broadcasting systems. When the optical modulation index (OMI) is calculated from the half-wavelength voltage measurement resu

38、lts, the intermodulation distortion of the Mach-Zehnder optical modulator can be obtained. In this PAS, the measurement method of the half-wavelength voltage for Mach-Zehnder optical modulators is described. The details of calculations of the second order intermodulation distortion (IM2) and the thi

39、rd order intermodulation distortion (IM3) are described in Annex B.
