This document comes from TIA Project No. 3230, and was formulated under the cogni zance of TIA F0-2.2/6.6, Joint Subcommittee on Local Area Network Component Character i zat i on. This Informativ

32、e Test Method (ITM) is part of the series of test procedures i ncl uded wi t h TSB - 62. 3 EIA TSB62-3 75 .I 3234600 0562557 767 TSB - 62 - 3 This page left blank. 4 EIA TSBb2-3 95 3234600 0562558 bT3 TSB - 62 - 3 1 Introduction 1.1 Intent This Informative Test Method (ITM) describes a method to mea

33、sure the Mode Power Distribution (MPD) present in a multimode optical fiber. This fiber may be an integral part of a fiber optic component such as a switch, coupler or cable. This method is applicable to the measurement of the MPD in optical fibers and components, fiber optic systems, or fiber optic

34、 cable plants. This method also may be used to characterize the MPD launched into an optical fiber by a fiber optic source. In addition, this procedure may be used to measure the mode transfer function of a passive fiber optic component. 1.2 scope This method is only applicable to class Ia multimode

35、, graded index optical fibers with profile parameter, g, approximately equal to 2. The fibers may be part of a fiber optic component such as an optical transmitter, switch, coupler or cable and may be within an installed fiber optic system or fiber optic cable plant. 1.3 Background This method is us

36、ed to characterize the distribution of optical power among the modes of a multimode optical fiber. This method is used to study mode mixing and mode stripping effects of optical fibers and other components. This method is al so used to characterize the output (1 aunch) conditions of opt i cal source

In addition, the light source used for reference measurements shall have a full width half maximum spectral width between 5 nm an

40、d 200 nm. and shall have a uniformity over the surface area of the input fiber no worse than +/- 10 percent. 3.2 Cladding Mode Stripper Cladding mode power shall be removed from the test specimen. Under some circumstances, the fiber coating will perform this function: otherwise, methods or devices t

41、hat extract cladding mode power shall be employed at the input and output ends of the test specimen. -6 TSB 62 - 3 4 Sampl ing and specimens The test specimen shall consist of an optical fiber or a fiber-optic component (including fiber optic sources) constructed with optical fiber pigtails. The min

42、imum fiber or pigtail length shall be 1 m. 5 Procedure 5.1 Test Near Field Prepare the fiber ends of the test specimen to assure flat endfaces perpendicular to the fiber axis (refer to FOTP-57). Measure the output near-field radiation pattern of the test specimen or the optical fiber pigtail of the

43、test specimen in accordance with FOTP -43. The input 1 i ght 1 aunch condi ti ons shall be a uni form overfill as described in clause 3.1 for passive components and shall be “as generated“ for active components. The effective step size of the nearfield pattern measurement shall be no greater than 1

44、pm. 5.2 Reference Near Fi el d Prepare the fiber ends of the reference length to assure flat endfaces perpendicular to the fiber axis (refer to FOTP-57). Measure the output near- field radiation pattern of a short reference length (1.0 +/- 0.25 m) of optical fiber with a refractive index profile sim

45、ilar to that of the test specimen fiber in accordance with FOTP-43. This may be accomplished by performing a cutback of the test specimen or by replacing the test specimen with a short optical fiber with the appropriate refractive index profile. The input light launch conditions shall be a uniform o

46、verfill as described in clause 3. The effective step size of the nearfield pattern measurement shall be the same as used in 5.1. 7 EIA TSBb2-3 95 3234600 05b25bL 198 TSB - 62 - 3 6 Cal cul ations or interpretations of results 6.1 Nearfield Calculations Determine the core diameter of the reference le

47、ngth using FOTP-58. Determine the center point of both the test specimen and reference length data patterns. NOTE 1 - A recommended method for determining the center point of equally spaced data is as follows. Determine the number of data points contained between the 2.5% levels of the measured data

48、 set. If the number of data points is odd, the center point is the median point. If the number of data points is even, the center point is the mean of the two median data points. NOTE 2 - A more general method of determining the center point of equally spaced data is to determine the “center of mass

49、“ of the data set. The center point is the point at which the magnitude of the data set sum is one-half the magnitude of the total data set sum. Average each data set about the center point and calculate the offset of each scan position from its respective center point. For both the test specimen data set and the reference length data set, convert each scan position to relative mode number (relative composite mode number) using the relation: m = (r/aI2 where m is the relative mode number, r is the offset of each scan position from its center po
