26、ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION _ FIBRE OPTIC COMMUNICATION SUBSYSTEM TEST PROCEDURES Part 2-9: Digital systems Optical signal-to-noise ratio measurement for dense wavelength-division multiplexed systems FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for stan
27、dardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes In
28、ternational Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may particip
29、ate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement betwe
30、en the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publication
31、s have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
32、 misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding
33、national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edi
34、tion of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether di
35、rect or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispen
36、sable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 61280-2-9
37、 has been prepared by subcommittee 86C: Fibre optic systems and active devices, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics This second addition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2002 and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes from the previous edition are as follows: A
38、 paragraph has been added to the Scope describing the limitations due to signal spectral width and wavelength filtering. Annex B has been added to further explain error in measuring noise level due to signal spectral width and wavelength filtering. 61280-2-9 IEC:2009 5 The text of this standard is b

This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. A lis
40、t of all the parts in the IEC 61280 series, under the general title Fibre optic communication subsystem test procedures, can be found on the IEC website. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web s

At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. 6 61280-2-9 IEC:2009 INTRODUCTION At the optical interfaces within wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) network
42、s, it is desirable to measure parameters that provide information about the integrity of the physical plant. Such parameters are necessary to monitor network performance as an integral part of network management. They are also necessary to assure proper system operation for installation and maintena
43、nce of the network. Ideally, such parameters would directly correspond to the bit error ratio (BER) of each channel of a multichannel carrier at the particular optical interface. Related parameters such as Q-factor or those calculated from optical eye patterns would provide similar information, that
44、 is, they would correlate to the channel BER. However, it is difficult to obtain access to these parameters at a multichannel interface point. It is necessary to demultiplex the potentially large number of channels and make BER, Q-factor, or eye-diagram measurements on a per-channel basis. In contra
45、st, useful information about the optical properties of the multichannel carrier is readily obtained by measuring the optical spectrum. Wavelength-resolved signal and noise levels provide information on signal level, signal wavelength, and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) for each channel. Spectr
46、al information, however, does not show signal degradation due to wave-shape impairments resulting from polarization-mode dispersion (PMD), and chromatic dispersion. Also, intersymbol interference and time jitter are not revealed from an optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR) measurement. In spite of t
47、hese limitations, OSNR is listed as an interface parameter in ITU-T Rec. G.692 1 1 , as an optical monitoring parameter in ITU-T Rec. G.697 2 and in ITU-T G Rec.

48、 2-9: Digital systems Optical signal-to-noise ratio measurement for dense wavelength-division multiplexed systems 1 Scope This part of IEC 61280 provides a parameter definition and a test method for obtaining optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) using apparatus that measures the optical spectrum at
49、a multichannel interface. Because noise measurement is made on an optical spectrum analyzer, the measured noise does not include source relative intensity noise (RIN) or receiver noise. Three implementations for an optical spectrum analyser (OSA) are discussed: a diffraction- grating-based OSA, a Michelson interferometer-based OSA, and a Fabr
