24、BASIC TEST AND MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Part 3-2: Examination and measurements Polarization dependent loss in a single-mode fibre optic device 1 Scope This part of IEC 61300 specifies measurement methods to determine the dependence of loss in a single-mode fibre optic device to changes in polarization

25、. This procedure focuses on measurements with a fixed wavelength source; therefore, this procedure is applicable to devices whose properties at a single wavelength can represent those over the broader wavelength band. Typical examples of such devices are single-mode interconnecting devices and passi

26、ve components, including connectors, splices, branching devices, attenuators, isolators, and switches. The maximum observed variation in transmission loss is referred to as polarization-dependent-loss (PDL). This standard applies to broadband devices and not to narrow-band devices like filters and m

27、ultiplexers. The reader is referred to IEC 61300-3-29 for such measurements. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

29、DM components 3 Measurement methods Two methods for measuring polarization-dependent-loss are described. The all states method determines the maximum variation in transmission loss by stimulating with a representative set of all possible polarization states including linear, circular, and elliptical

30、. The Mueller matrix method determines the sensitivity using a set of fixed states and applying the Mueller matrix mathematical analysis. This procedure originally consisted of only one method, but has been updated to incorporate the technique previously described by IEC 61300-3-121. That standard w

31、ill be discontinued. 3.1 All states method In this method, the PDL is determined by rotating the source polarization over a representative set of all possible polarization states while monitoring the transmission 1IEC 61300-3-12, Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components Basic test

The rotation can be accomplished in eit

33、her a deterministic or a pseudo-random fashion. The term “deterministic” refers to techniques that scan a large subset of the entire polarization state space in a repeatable way. This method scans the Poincar sphere along predetermined trajectories to produce a good approximation of full sphere cove

34、rage. The term “pseudo-random” refers to techniques that scan the polarization through a pseudo-random variation of retardance in the optical path, usually using the distributed retardance of optical fibre loops in motion. Figure 1 shows the difference in coverage between the two techniques. In eith

35、er case, the accuracy of the method is dependent on the degree of coverage over the Poincar sphere due to the combination of the states generated by the polarization controller and the response time of the power detector with respect to the polarization scan rate.

36、apping of deterministic and pseudo-random techniques 3.2 Mueller matrix method The Mueller matrix method involves the measurement of the behaviour of a device under test, DUT, when illuminated by a small set of well-defined states of polarization of input light. These measurements are followed by a

37、matrix calculation to determine the PDL of the DUT. Generally, there are two matrix formalisms that can describe and quantify the polarization behaviour of light based on Mueller and Jones calculus respectively. For fully polarized light, as required for the PDL measurements, the Mueller and Jones f

38、ormalisms are equivalent. Since measurements with polarization instrumentation on only one side of the DUT directly obtain the necessary elements of the Mueller matrix, that is elements corresponding to power ratios rather than field amplitude and phase, the test procedure described here uses Muelle

39、r mathematics to determine PDL. The Mueller matrix formalism entails an optical power representation of the performance of components. This matrix is a square 16-element matrix. Here, the state of polarization (SOP) of light is described as a 4-element Stokes vector. The Stokes vector of the inciden

40、t light multiplied by the Mueller matrix of the DUT gives the Stokes vector of the output light, and this output light may be from transmission, reflection or scattering. In the determination of PDL of a component using Mueller matrices, it is normally not necessary to determine the full Mueller mat

41、rix but rather only the first row of the matrix, which provides complete information on light intensity but not on the resultant state of polarization. The accuracy of the method is dependent on the source wavelength stability, the system signal to noise ratio, and the drift in system birefringence.

42、 BS EN 61300-3-2:200961300-3-2 IEC:2009(E) 7 4 Apparatus The basic apparatus for making PDL measurements is shown in Figure 2. Source PSCS RDB DUT D1 D2 Data recording TJTJIEC 2364/08 Figure 2 Measurement apparatus The apparatus consists of the following devices. 4.1 Optical source (S) An optical so

43、urce capable of producing the spectral characteristics defined in the relevant specification (both wavelength and spectral width) shall be used. Unless otherwise specified in the relevant specification, the spectral width shall be appropriate for the degree of wavelength resolution required. The sou

44、rce power must be capable of meeting the dynamic range requirements of the measurement when combined with the detector sensitivity. The source must be polarized to at least 13 dB extinction ratio, unless otherwise specified in the relevant specification. An extinction ratio of 20 dB may be used to a

45、ssure that this parameter makes no significant contribution to the measurement uncertainty. If the source is not already polarized to this level, a polarizer should be used to maintain this extinction ratio over the range of wavelengths of the measurement. The optical power stability, degree of pola

46、rization (DOP), state of polarization (SOP) stability, and wavelength stability of the source shall be sufficient to achieve the desired measurement accuracy over the duration of the measurement. For some applications, a narrow linewidth source such as a single longitudinal mode laser may be used th

47、ough care shall be exercised to prevent back-reflections that could lead to multi-path interference and resulting spurious PDL. The output from this source is either via a single-mode fibre or a coupling system capable of launching into a single-mode fibre. Care shall be taken that only the fundamen

48、tal transverse mode of the fibre is propagating as outlined in Clause 5. NOTE Multimode lasers may not provide sufficient polarization stability for this measurement. 4.2 Temporary joint (TJ) This is a method, device, or mechanical fixture for temporarily aligning two fibre ends into a reproducible,

49、 low-loss, low-PDL joint. This may be mechanical connectors, mechanical splices, a direct optical launch into the pigtail, or a splice onto the sources pigtail. Typically, a fusion splice is used after the polarization controller since mechanical connections may exhibit some polarization sensitivity if the end-faces are not perpendicular to the fibre axis. The stability and insertion loss of the temporary joint shall be compatible with the required measuremen
