Such parameters are necessary to mon

27、itor network performance as an integral part of network management. They are also necessary to assure proper system operation for installation and maintenance of the network. Ideally, such parameters would directly correspond to the bit error ratio (BER) of each channel of a multichannel carrier at

28、the particular optical interface. Related parameters such as Q-factor or those calculated from optical eye patterns would provide similar information, that is, they would correlate to the channel BER. However, it is difficult to obtain access to these parameters at a multichannel interface point. It

29、 is necessary to demultiplex the potentially large number of channels and make BER, Q-factor, or eye-diagram measurements on a per-channel basis. In contrast, useful information about the optical properties of the multichannel carrier is readily obtained by measuring the optical spectrum. Wavelength

30、-resolved signal and noise levels provide information on signal level, signal wavelength, and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) for each channel. Spectral information, however, does not show signal degradation due to wave-shape impairments resulting from polarization-mode dispersion (PMD), and ch

31、romatic dispersion. Also, intersymbol interference and time jitter are not revealed from an optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR) measurement. In spite of these limitations, OSNR is listed as an interface parameter in ITU-T Rec. G.692 11, as an optical monitoring parameter in ITU-T Rec. G.697 2 and i

33、part of IEC 61280 provides a parameter definition and a test method for obtaining optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) using apparatus that measures the optical spectrum at a multichannel interface. Because noise measurement is made on an optical spectrum analyzer, the measured noise does not includ

34、e source relative intensity noise (RIN) or receiver noise. Three implementations for an optical spectrum analyser (OSA) are discussed: a diffraction-grating-based OSA, a Michelson interferometer-based OSA, and a Fabry-Perot-based OSA. Performance characteristics of the OSA that affect OSNR measureme

35、nt accuracy are provided. A typical optical spectrum at a multichannel interface is shown in Figure 1. Important characteristics are as follows. The channels are placed nominally on the grid defined by ITU Recommendation G.694.1.4 Individual channels may be non-existent because it is a network desig

36、ned with optical add/drop demultiplexers or because particular channels are out of service. Both channel power and noise power are a function of wavelength. For calculating the OSNR, the most appropriate noise power value is that at the channel wavelength. However, with a direct spectral measurement

37、, the noise power at the channel wavelength is included in the signal power and is difficult to extract. An estimate of the channel noise power can be made by interpolating the noise power value between channels. The accuracy of estimating the noise power at the signal wavelength by interpolating th

38、e noise power at an offset wavelength can be significantly reduced when the signal spectrum extends into the gap between the signals and when components such as add-drop multiplexers along the transmission span modify the spectral shape of the noise. These effects are discussed in further detail in

39、Annex B, and can make the method of this document unusable for some situations. In such cases, where signal and noise cannot be sufficiently separated spectrally, it is necessary to use more complex separation methods, like polarization or time-domain extinction, or to determine signal quality with

40、a different parameter, such as RIN. This is beyond the scope of the current document.

Three common ways to implement an OSA are with a diffraction grating, a Michelson interferometer, and a Fabry-Perot etalon. 4.2 Diffraction grating-based OSA A simplified diagram of a diffraction grating-based OSA is shown in Figure 3. The expanded input

48、 light is incident on a rotatable diffraction grating. The diffracted light comes off at an angle proportional to wavelength and passes through an aperture to a photodetector. The size of the input and output apertures and the size of the beam on the diffraction grating determine the spectral width
