The

22、technology of optical amplifiers is still rapidly evolving, hence amendments and new additions to this standard can be expected. Each symbol and abbreviation introduced in this standard is generally explained in the text the first time it appears. However, for an easier understanding of the whole te

23、xt, a list of all symbols and abbreviations used in this standard is given in Clause 3. BS EN 61290-3-2:2008 6 61290-3-2 IEC:2008 OPTICAL AMPLIFIERS TEST METHODS Part 3-2: Noise figure parameters Electrical spectrum analyzer method 1 Scope and object This part of IEC 61290 applies to all commerciall

24、y available optical amplifiers (OAs), including OAs using optically pumped fibres (OFAs based on either rare-earth doped fibres or on the Raman effect), semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and planar waveguide optical amplifiers (PWOAs). The object of this standard is to establish uniform requir

25、ements for accurate and reliable measurements, by means of the electrical spectrum analyzer (ESA) method, of the noise figure, as defined in IEC 61291-1. The present test method is based on direct electrical noise measurement and it is directly related to its definition including all relevant noise

26、contributions. Therefore, this method can be used for all types of optical amplifiers, including SOA and Raman amplifiers which can have significant contributions besides amplified spontaneous emission, because it measures the total noise figure. For further details of applicability, see IEC 61290-3

27、. An alternative test method based on the optical spectrum analyzer can be used, particularly for different noise parameters (such as the signal-spontaneous noise factor) but it is not included in the object of this standard. NOTE 1 All numerical values followed by () are suggested values for which

28、the measurement is assured. Other values may be acceptable but should be verified. NOTE 2 A measurement accuracy for the average noise factor of 20 %(), respectively 1 dB, should be attainable with this method (see Clause 6). NOTE 3 General aspects of noise figure test methods are reported in IEC 61

44、 intensity noise of the source, expressed in Hz1RMS root mean square 4 Apparatus The scheme of a possible implementation of the measurement set-up is shown in Figure 1. The test equipment listed below, with the required characteristics, is needed. a) A source module with the following components 1)

45、A laser source with a single-line spectrum, for example: a distributed feedback (DFB) laser diode. The laser source shall be sine-wave amplitude modulated with one single frequency that is sufficiently higher than the linewidth of the source. A modulation frequency at least 3 times higher than the l

46、inewidth is advisable. The relative modulation amplitude, m (that is, the ratio of root mean square, RMS, optical power modulation amplitude to average optical power) shall be sufficiently small to ensure operation in the linear regime. A value for m of 2 % to 10 %() is considered adequate. Direct o

47、r external modulation can be used. An achievable average output power, Pin, 0, of not less than 0 dBm is advisable, to be able to generate the desired OA saturation state. The linewidth FWHM (full width at half maximum) under modulation shall be between 20 MHz() and 100 MHz(). This is considered the

48、 best range for accurate determination of the noise contribution from multiple path interference, because it closely reflects the typical linewidths of DFB lasers, the typical laser source used in conjunction with OAs. A linewidth of 20 MHz is adequate for a minimum spacing of 7,5 m between the OA i

49、nternal reflection points. Using narrower linewidths will lead to the undesired situation that the OA internal reflections interfere in a coherent way and that substantially different noise figure results are obtained. A linewidth of more than 100 MHz will cause OA noise contributions at frequencies which are higher than the high end of the ESA bandwidth. The relative intensity noise (RIN) of the laser source shall be less than 150 dB/Hz() within t
