23、DS Part 3-3: Noise figure parameters Signal power to total ASE power ratio 1 Scope and object This part of IEC 61290-3 applies to all commercially available single channel optical amplifiers (OAs), including OAs using optically pumped fibres (OFAs) based on either rare-earth doped fibres or on the R

24、aman effect, semiconductor optical amplifier modules (SOA modules) and planar optical waveguide amplifiers (POWAs). More specifically, it applies to single channel OAs placed before optical receivers, where there are no optical bandpass filtering elements placed between the OA and the receiver. The

25、object of this part of IEC 61290-3 is to establish uniform requirements for accurate and reliable measurement of the ratio of the signal output power to the total ASE power generated by the OA in the optical bandwidth of the receiver. This quantity is a measure of the spontaneous-spontaneous beat no

26、ise at the receiver, and is correlated to the spontaneous-spontaneous noise factor of the OA, Fsp-sp, as defined in IEC 61290-3 and IEC 61291-1. IEC 61290-3-1 describes a measurement method, using an optical spectrum analyzer, OSA, for the signal-spontaneous noise factorpssigF but does not describe

27、a method for measuring Fsp-sp. IEC 61290-3-2 describes a measurement method, using an electrical spectrum analyzer (ESA), for the total noise factor Fsp-sp+ Fsig-sp. However, this method does not allow Fsp-spto be measured separately, and therefore does not provide a means of directly quantifying th

28、e effect of spontaneous-spontaneous beat noise at the receiver. This part of IEC 61290-3 complements IEC 61290-3-1 and IEC 61290-3-2 in that it provides such a means. Two measurement methods are provided for the ratio of the signal output power to the total ASE power. The first method uses an OSA, w

29、hile the second method uses a bandpass filter and an optical power meter. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

37、wavelength division multiplexing 4 Background In recent years, high-speed transmission links beyond 10 Gb/s have been commercially introduced. These links (as well as some high-end 10-Gb/s links, such as submarine links) require high sensitivity receivers, e.g. avalanche photo diode (APD) receivers,

38、 which operate in a limited input optical power dynamic range. In addition, specialized optical components such as chromatic dispersion (CD) compensators and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) compensators may be placed on the receiver module, thus introducing considerable optical insertion loss. In

39、 multi-channel wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) links a multi-channel OA is often placed at the end of the link before the WDM signal is demultiplexed into individual channels. The total output power of the multi-channel OA is typically such that the optical power per channel is in the range of

40、 0 dBm to 5 dBm. This power is then attenuated by the demultiplexer, and further attenuated by the specialized optical components mentioned above. Thus, the optical power reaching the receiver may be below the required input optical power dynamic range. In this case, a single channel OA may be place

41、d on the receiver module to boost the optical power reaching the receiver. In such a situation, there is typically no optical bandpass filter between the single channel OA and the receiver, so that all the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise generated by the amplifier reaches the receiver. Th

42、is can result in a significant level of spontaneous-spontaneous beat noise at the receiver. One way to characterize this noise is through the spontaneous-spontaneous noise factor, Fsp-sp, as defined in IEC 61290-3 and IEC 61291-1. Another way to characterize the spontaneous-spontaneous beat noise is

43、 through the signal to total ASE power ratio, Sig_ASE, at the OA output, given by the following: ASEout_PPASESig = (1) where Poutis the signal output power of the OA, and PASEis the ASE power generated by the OA within the ASE band, given by BS EN 61290-3-3:2014 8 61290-3-3 IEC:2013 ( ) dPB=ASEASEAS

44、E (2) where BASEis the ASE band of the OA defined as a wavelength band that contains at least 99 % of the total ASE power generated by OA. Care should be taken to define BASEsuch that it excludes other sources of noise not related to ASE. In particular, BASEshould exclude possible pump leakage power

45、 exiting the OA output port. For example, for a C-band EDFA pumped by a 1 480 nm pump, BASEshould not include wavelengths below 1 500 nm. This guarantees that BASEincludes at least 99 % of the ASE generated within the EDFA on the one hand, while excluding possible 1 480 nm pump leakage power on the

46、other. NOTE 1 In many OAs, and especially in OFAs, the ASE is polarization independent. In some OAs, such as some types of SOA modules, the ASE may be polarization dependent. PASErefers to the total power in both polarization directions. While there is no direct relation between Sig_ASE and Fsp-sp,

47、it is clear that there is a correlation between them, and that both quantities can be used to quantify the effect of spontaneous-spontaneous beat noise at the receiver. The higher is Sig_ASE, the lower is the spontaneous-spontaneous beat noise (and the lower Fsp-sp), and vice-versa. In this standard

48、, a measurement method for Sig_ASE is presented. Annex A provides a brief technical discussion of the various OA parameters that can affect and determine the Sig_ASE value. NOTE 2 All quantities in this standard are in linear units, unless specifically defined otherwise. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Measurement
