25、s used in the operation or test of communication subsystems. The measurement is done for the purpose of system construction and/or maintenance. In the case of communication subsystem signals, the optical transmitter is typically under modulation. NOTE Different properties may be appropriate to diffe

28、 IEC 62129, Calibration of optical spectrum analyzers 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 Wavelength NOTE The following wavelength terms provide quantitative definitions for the describing the central wavelength of a spectrum. In

29、this standard, “central wavelength” is a general category label for these terms. 3.1.1 centre wavelength 0also called “half-power mid-point”, the mean of the closest spaced half-power wavelengths in an optical spectrum, one above and one below the peak wavelength 3.1.2 half-power wavelength 3dBa wav

33、for a nominally SLM spectrum (see 8.8) 4 Apparatus 4.1 Calibrated optical spectrum analyzer This special-purpose test equipment uses a dispersive spectrophotometric method to resolve and record the optical spectral distribution. The required wavelength resolution and range depends on the type and va

34、riety of signals to be measured. Generally, LED sources have wide spectra with little structure so a range of at least 200 nm and resolution of 1 nm or narrower are recommended. Laser sources have much narrower spectra and may be used in wavelength-domain multiplexing (WDM) applications, where more

35、accurate determination of the wavelength is required. A wavelength resolution of 0,1 nm or narrower is recommended and the actual requirement is determined by the application. In any case, the sensitivity and wavelength range of the spectrum analyzer shall be sufficient to measure all of the spectru

36、m within at least 20 dB from the peak power. For measurement of SMSR, a larger dynamic range is typically required. OSA equipment shall be calibrated in accordance with IEC 62129. The equipment used shall have a valid calibration certificate in accordance with the applicable quality system for the p

37、eriod over which the testing is done. BS EN 61280-1-3:201061280-1-3 IEC:2010(E) 7 4.2 Power supplies As required for the device under test. 4.3 Input signal source or modulator The input signal source is a signal generator or modulator with the appropriate digital or analogue signal of the system. 4

38、.4 Test cord Unless otherwise specified, the physical and optical properties of the test cords shall match to the cable plant with which the equipment is intended to operate. The cords shall be 2 m to 5 m long, and shall contain fibres with coatings which remove cladding light. Appropriate connector

39、s shall be used. Single-mode cords shall be deployed with two 90 mm diameter loops or otherwise assure rejection of cladding modes. If the equipment is intended for multimode operation and the intended cable plant is unknown, the fibre size shall be 50/125 m. 5 Test sample The test sample shall be a

40、 specified fibre optic subsystem, transmitter, or light source. The system inputs and outputs shall be those normally seen by the user. The spectral width parameters are typically used for characterizing MLM and LED transmitters. The width of MTM and SLM lasers without modulation are normally too na

41、rrow to measure with the dispersive spectral instruments used with this method. Modulated SLM transmitters have broadened linewidths for high data rates (above about 2,5 Gb/s) and due to chirp that may be measurable by this method. WARNING Exercise care to avoid possible eye damage from looking into

42、 the end of an energized fibre from any light source. Most importantly, avoid looking into any energized fibre using any type of magnification device. The requirements in IEC 60825-1 shall be followed. 6 Procedure (Method A) 6.1 General Method A is designed for the use of typical commercial optical

43、spectrum analyzer instruments that allow quick measurement of spectra with 1 000 wavelength samples or more, and allows for the analysis of such spectra based on all of the samples rather than selecting for example only the samples at the peaks of mode wavelengths. The previous method using a smalle

44、r number of discrete wavelength points is included in Clause 7 as Method B, for compatibility with the first edition of this standard. Method A has the advantage of easier simpler automated analysis and better representation of complex but narrow spectra, such as multitransverse-mode vertical cavity

45、 surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). Due to its convenience and prevalence in the industry, Method A is considered the reference test method. 6.2 Setup 6.2.1 Use appropriate handling procedures to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), which can cause opto-electronic devices to fail. 6.2.2

46、 With the exception of ambient temperature, standard ambient conditions shall be used, unless otherwise specified. The ambient or reference point temperature shall be 23 C 2 C, unless otherwise specified. BS EN 61280-1-3:2010 8 61280-1-3 IEC:2010(E) 6.2.3 Unless otherwise specified, apply a modulate

47、d input signal to the optical source. Allow sufficient time (per manufacturers recommendation or as specified in the detail specification) for the optical source/transmitter to reach a steady-state temperature. 6.2.4 Turn the optical spectrum analyzer on, and allow the recommended warm-up and settli

48、ng time to achieve rated measurement performance level. 6.2.5 Connect the optical output of the optical source under test to the optical input connector of the optical spectrum analyzer. If the transmitter under test does not include isolation from back-reflections, as often the case at 850 nm, thes

49、e reflections can cause the spectrum to be unstable and should be reduced with high return-loss connections and possibly external isolation or attenuation at the transmitter output. 6.3 Adjustment of spectrum analyzer controls 6.3.1 Using the resolution control, select an appropriate resolution (see 4.1). Typically less than 1/10 of the spectral width to be measured, or the finest available resolution bandwidth (0,1 nm or narrower) should be used
