5、ions. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunicatio

6、n Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of info

However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some

27、ranching components are required when an optical signal has to be split into two or more fibre lines or when several signals coming from different fibre lines have to be mixed in a single fibre line; in general, optical branching components are dividers/combiners of transit signals.

28、ranching component (schematic) In a point-to-multipoint distribution architecture, optical branching components are used to connect an OLT located at a central office to several ONUs located in outside plant or on subscriber premises. 7 Types and configurations Optical branching components can be cl

29、assified as one or more of the following: a) star branching devices: A branching device typically balanced; possessing more than four ports; ITU-T Rec. L.37 (02/2007) 3 b) tree branching devices: A branching device with a single optical input distributed among several outputs, or vice versa. Optical

30、 branching components can be designed to operate at a single wavelength (e.g., 1310 or 1550 nm), to be wavelength flat (e.g., insensitive to wavelength variations within a single window) or to be wavelength independent (e.g., insensitive to wavelength variations within both the second and third wind

31、ows, 1260-1360 nm and 1450-1600 nm, or 1260-1360 nm and 1450-1660 nm). 8 Technological aspects There are several methods used to manufacture optical branching components, and they can be grouped into the following classes: a) fusion technology: This technology has proved to be simple, versatile and

32、effective, allowing the industrial implementation of several kinds of branching devices for a variety of applications. With the fused biconic taper (FBT) method, bare or etched fibres are brought into contact, stretched, possibly twisted, and fused so that evanescent mode coupling occurs along the i

33、nteraction length; b) planar optics technology: Planar waveguide branching devices are made by photolithographic technology, using parallel processing techniques. To produce the refractive index profile, ions are diffused into a substrate such as glass, semiconductor (silicon), LiNbO3or polymer. Alt

34、ernatively, doped silica glass is fabricated by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) or by flame hydrolysis deposition (FHD) and consolidation. The optical profile and the geometrical properties of the guiding structure are defined by photolithographic masking techniques followed by etching; c) polishin

35、g technology: In order to position fibre cores close enough to allow the overlap of the evanescent fields (coupling conditions), the fibre cladding is removed to within a few microns of the core. This controlled removal of the cladding is achieved by mechanical abrasion (polishing). 9 Optical parame

36、ters and performance Optical branching components for PONs are characterized by several parameters, the most important of which are the following: insertion loss; reflectance; optical wavelength range; polarization-dependent loss. directivity; uniformity.
