26、important for operation and maintenance of optical transport networks (OTN). From the network operators point of view, monitoring techniques are required to establish connections, protection, restoration, and/or service level agreements. In order to establish these functions, the monitoring techniqu

27、es used should satisfy some general requirements: in-service (non-intrusive) measurement signal deterioration detection (both SNR degradation and waveform distortion) fault isolation (localize impaired sections or nodes) transparency and scalability (irrespective of the signal bit rate and signal fo

28、rmats) simplicity (small size and low cost). There are several approaches, both analogue and digital techniques, which make it possible to detect various impairments: bit error rate (BER) estimation 1,21 error block detection optical power measurement optical SNR evaluation with spectrum measurement

29、 3,4 pilot tone detection 5,6 Q-factor monitoring 7 pseudo BER estimation using two decision circuits 8,9 histogram evaluation with synchronous eye diagram measurement 10. A fundamental performance monitoring parameter of any digital transmission system is its end-to-end BER. However, the BER can be

30、 correctly evaluated only with out of service BER measurements, using a known test bit pattern in place of the real signal. On the other hand, in-service measurement can only provide rough estimates through the measurement of digital parameters (e.g., BER estimation, error block detection, and error

31、 count in forward error correction) or analogue parameters (e.g., optical SNR and Q-factor). An in-service optical Q-factor monitoring can be used for accurate quality assessment of transmitted signals on wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) networks. Chromatic dispersion (CD) compensation is requi

32、red for Q monitoring at measurement point in CD uncompensated optical link. However, conventional Q monitoring method is not suitable for signal evaluation of transmission signals, because it requires timing extraction by complex equipment that is specific to each BER and each format. The software t

33、riggering technique 11-14 reconstructs synchronous eye-diagram waveforms without an external clock signal synchronized to optical transmission signal from digital data obtained through asynchronous sampling. It does not rely on an optical signals transmission rate and data formats (RZ or NRZ). Measu

34、ring method of eye diagrams and Q-factor using the software triggering technique is a cost-effective alternative to BER estimations. With eye diagrams and Q-factor using software triggering test method, signal quality degradations due to optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) degradation, to jitter fl

35、uctuations and to waveform distortion can be monitored. This is one of the promising performance-monitoring approaches for intensity modulated direct detection (IM-DD) optical transmission systems. 1Numbers in square brackets refer to the Bibliography.

43、he time window, in which an appropriate time window is established in a large part of the eye opening. The time window is separated into “mark” (“1”) and “space” (“0”) levels, the average 0and standard deviation 0of the “space” (“0”) level data and the average 1and standard deviation 1 of the “mark”

44、 (“1”) level data are calculated, and the Q-factor is calculated by substituting the obtained 0, 0, 1, and 1into Formula (1). The Q-factor depends on the position of the centre of the time window. For optical transmission signal quality evaluation, the maximum value obtained by calculating Formula (

45、1) while changing the position of centre of the time window is defined as the Q-factor. 0101+=Q(1)The Q-factor also depends on width of the time window.
