14、in the Detail Specification, the center wavelength shall be 850 k 25 nm.

When this procedure is used in conjunction with FOTP-177,4.2 applies. 4.2 For short length measurements, the test

38、 specimen shaii be a representative specimen of fiber 2.0 f 0.2 meters (6.6 f 0.7 feet) in length, taken from the fuil length of fiber supplied. 4.3 For long length measurements, the test specimen shail be the length of fiber supplied. Report this test as a “long length measurement“, along with the

39、actual length tested. NOTE: The physical state of the long length of fiber may influence the measurement; therefore, the fiber deployment should reflect that of the intended application. Generally, care should be taken to avoid microbending in the specimen. 4.4 Prepare smooth, flat endfaces on the t

40、est specimen that are perpendicular to the fiber axis in accordance with FCYP-57. NOTE: The accuracy of the far field measurement is affected by endface angle. End angles less than 2 degrees are recommended. 5. PROCEDURE 5.1 Selection of Test Methods 5.1.1 Select one of the following methods to be p

41、erformed. (These methods are consistent and should produce the same result): 5.1.2 Method A - Angular Scan Fixed test specimen output end, rotating detector. Method B - Angular %an Rotating test specimen output end, fixed detector. Method C - Spatial Scan Scan of spatial field pattern. 5.1.3 5.1.4 5

42、.2 Test Procedure Use the following steps with any of the methods outlined in 5.1. 5.2.1 If specific cladding mode stripper devices are needed, remove any coating on the fiber in their vicinity. Place the test specimen ends in the support devices. Place the test specimen input end in the plane of, a

43、nd centered with respect to, the focused image of the constant- radiance spot. Position the output end as appropriate for the particular test method. Position the remainder of the test specimen to make microbending and mambending effects negligible. 5.2.2 Set the optical source to the desired wavele

44、ngth and spectral width. Report this data with the test results if these values are different than the default values given in 3.2. 5.2.3. Using the means provided for the test method used, scan the far field radiation pattern along a diameter and record intensity as a function of angular position.
