32、applies to optical fibre amplifiers (OFA) using active fibres, containing rare-earth dopants, currently commercially available. The object of this International Standard is to establish uniform requirements for accurate and reliable measurements of the signal-spontaneous noise figure as defined in I

33、EC 61291-1. The test method independently detects amplified signal power and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) power by launching optical pulses into the OFA under test. The ASE level is measured by synchronously measuring the power on an optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) during the optical pulse o

34、ff period. The average optical signal level is measured by random sampling in the OSA. Such measurement is possible because the gain response of the rare-earth doped OFA is relatively slow, particularly in Er-doped OFA. However, since the OFA gain dynamics vary with amplifier types, operating condit

35、ions, and control schemes, the gain dynamics should be carefully considered when applying the present test method to various OFA. The manufacturer of the OFA should present data validating the required modulation frequency to limit the error to 100 s for Er-doped fibre amplifiers. Currently, the gai

36、n recovery times allow pulse repetition rates in the 25 kHz to 100 kHz range. A simple set-up to evaluate OFA gain response versus modulation frequency is shown in Figure A.1. An optical source with variable modulation frequency is applied to the OFA. The average output power of the OFA is measured

37、on an optical power meter. As the modulation frequency is increased, the power meter reading asymptotically approaches a final value. At low modulation frequencies there is an increasing error due to non-linear gain recovery of the OFA. Pulse modulatedoptical sourceOFAOptical powermeterIEC 2654/02Fi

38、gure A.1 Set-up to evaluate gain recovery error versus modulation rate Figure A.2 shows a measurement on a 980 nm pumped Er-doped fibre amplifier with three values of pump current. As pump power increases, the gain recovery time constant becomes shorter, resulting in a larger deviation from the high

39、-frequency value. For this particular amplifier, a modulation frequency above 20 kHz is required to give 0,1 dB error in measured gain at 500 mA pump current. 1,41,21,00,80,60,40,20110100 1000Modulation frequency kHzGain recoveryerror dB100 mA200 mA500 mAIEC 2655/02Figure A.2 Gain recovery error ver

40、sus modulation frequency with pump current as a parameter However, there are two situations that require careful consideration of modulation frequency. First, as indicated in Figure A.2, higher pump current shortens the recovery time. Secondly, in some situations it is necessary to test OFAs when au

41、tomatic gain control (AGC) or automatic level control (ALC) circuitry is operational. The bandwidths of these AGC and ALC control loops will impose limitations on the modulation rate. It is recommended that this test be performed to qualify the appropriate modulation rate for a particular amplifier

42、design. NOTE In performing the above test, modulation rates below about 10 kHz should not be used. A large output power transient could destroy OFA or test system components.BS EN 61290-10-2:2008Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 18/06/2009 08:29, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI 14 61
