19、: Appendix III Method for differentiating splice loss and macrobending loss in installed links (This appendix does not form an integral part of this Recommendation.) III.1 General When large loss is observed at a fusion splice point after cable installation by OTDR measurement, it is usually inferre

20、d that the loss is due to low quality fusion splice or other causes such as fibre macrobending in a closure. Fibre macrobending in a closure is caused by rough fibre handling following fusion splice in cable installation or by other causes, e.g., fibre axial strain. Optical system performance might

21、be degraded at longer wavelengths for an optical fibre cable link with fibre macrobending. Hence, it is quite important to identify the location of fibre macrobending for a cable link. This appendix describes a simple method for differentiating splice loss and macrobending loss in installed links. T

22、he method is based on OTDR measurement at two wavelengths, and it is recommended to use a bidirectional OTDR method which is able to determine the exact loss at the splice point. This optional method can be used to identify the main loss factor when large loss is observed in an OTDR trace in the vic

23、inity of a splice. The application of the method is limited to ITU-T G.652 fibres. A general application of the method to ITU-T G.657 fibres is difficult to implement, because of low bending loss, and is not recommended. Moreover, if the users do not know the exact fibre types in the link, it is dif

24、ficult to apply this method since the method is only effective for ITU-T G.652 fibres. III.2 Theory III.2.1 Definition of macrobending indicator Measurement of the macrobending indicator is based on an OTDR measurement at two different wavelengths. The macrobending indicator k is defined as follows

25、b-Ryu: )/()(2121= AAk (dB/nm) (III-1) 2 Rec. ITU-T G.650.3 (2008)/Amd.1 (02/2011) In Equation III-1, it is assumed that OTDR measurement is performed at wavelengths of 1and 2(nm) and that the measured loss at a fibre splice point at each wavelength is A1and A2(dB), respectively. The 1and 2should be

26、set at values longer than the cable cutoff wavelength. Figure III.1 shows examples of the calculation results of the macrobending indicator using the theory b-Marcuse-JOSA, and b-Sharma when a fibre is wound one turn with a radius of R (mm). In the calculation, 1was fixed at 1310 nm and 2was changed

27、 and shown in the horizontal axis. Figure III.1 Macrobending indicator vs wavelength (2) for various bending radii (1 = 1310 nm) From Figure III.1, it is clear that as 2increases, the macrobending indicator becomes larger, which means that the detection sensitivity of macrobending has improved. III.

28、2.2 Features of macrobending indicator As is described in Appendix I, in the OTDR measurement, accurate loss values can be derived by averaging bidirectional measurement results. The necessity for bidirectional measurement is due to different Rayleigh backscattering coefficients of the spliced fibre

29、s. Figure III.2 shows an OTDR set-up for measuring the macrobending indicator. In the set-up, Fibre A and Fibre B are spliced. Macrobending exists at the Fibre B side.

30、cator Here it is assumed that the OTDR measurement is carried out from side A and that PAiis optical power immediately before the splice point at a wavelength i(i = 1, 2), and PBiis power right after the point with macrobending. It is also assumed that the splice loss for this case is negligibly sma

It is well known that Aiand Biare inversely proportional to 4i , so that they can be expressed as: 4/iAAi= (III-2) 4/iBBi= (III-3) The loss Aiat a wavelength ican be derived as: ()()()()BiBAiABiBiAiAiiPPPPA = /log10 /log101010(III-4) From Equations III-1 and III-4, the macrobending indicator be

33、comes: ()2122101110)/(log10)/(log10 =BABAPPPPk (III-5) In Equation III-5, the influence of Rayleigh backscattering coefficient has been cancelled due to the differential operation in the definition of k. Equation III-5 shows that k is only dependent on the exact power before and after the fibre macr

34、obending point at each wavelength. The results above show that bidirectional measurement is not necessary for the determination of k. This feature is quite important since it is not always easy to perform OTDR measurement from both sides of the cable because both end points are at different location

35、s geographically. Then a case with the splice loss is taken into account. Regarding the splice loss, if the fibres with a different mode field diameter (MFD) are spliced, the loss due to MFD mismatch is observed. The influence of the loss-increase due to MFD mismatch is discussed in clause III.4.2.

36、Figure III.3 shows a measurement configuration for such a case.

ITU-T G.650.3 (2008)/Amd.1 (02/2011) III.3 Considerations on practical applicability This clause discusses a pra

39、ctical detection limit of the macrobending indicator. Regarding conventional OTDR systems, the detection limit of optical loss is (dB) considering the accuracy of the OTDR equipment. The detection limit of the macrobending indicator kmincan be expressed as: ()12min=k (dB/nm) (III-10) Figure III.4 sh

Figure III.4 Applicable measurement conditions It can be made clear from Figure III.4 that as 2be

41、comes longer, the macrobending with a larger radius can be detected. In other words, the detection sensitivity becomes improved for longer 2. From Figure III.4, an approximate detection limit of the maximum bending radius can be summarized as in Table III.1. Table III.1 Detection limit of maximum be

It is known from Table III.2 that splice loss decreases as the wavelength becomes longer. This is because at l

44、onger wavelength the MFD becomes larger, thus the loss increase due to the core axis misalignment is alleviated.

46、o the reasons above. In this case, applicable measurement conditions in Figure III.4 may be degraded since the macrobending indicator is the summation of both splice and macrobending losses as shown in Equation III-9.

48、obending indicator since the MFD of the commercial ITU-T G.652 fibres is different from one fibre to another as far as the MFD is within the specified values in ITU-T G.652. According to ITU-T G.652, the MFD at 1310 nm is specified as follows: Range of nominal values: 8.6-9.5 m; Tolerance: 0.6 m. So

49、, for the consideration of the influence of the MFD mismatch, it is sufficient to consider the MFD range 8.0-10.1 m. Figure III.6 shows the calculation results of the macrobending indicator considering the splice loss theory b-Marcuse-BSTJ when fibres with MFD of 8.0 m and 10.1 m are spliced. -0.0050.0000.0051450 1500 1550 1600 1650Wavelength (nm)Macrobendingindicator(dB/nm)From side A From side B6 Rec.
