8、-T Study Group 15 (2005-2008) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is
9、a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, e
10、stablishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary
11、 standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, th
12、e Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equival
13、ents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a clai
14、med Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had n

26、ngle (of an FSO receiver) is the angle between the lines at which the power detected by the receiver falls to 1/e2. This parameter is also called the Field of View (FOV) of an FSO receiver and is commonly defined to be where the power density falls to 1/e2, 1/e or 50%. 2 ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) 3
27、.1.2 beam divergence: The beam divergence is the angle between the lines at which the power density of an FSO beam falls to 1/e2. NOTE 1 This parameter is also commonly defined to be where the power density falls to either 1/e or 50%. NOTE 2 The beam divergence should be measured at a distance at le
28、ast five times the Rayleigh distance from the lens (see 3.1.8) to ensure that it is measured under far field conditions. 3.1.3 inter-channel crosstalk: The ratio of the disturbing optical power to the wanted optical power detected by the receiver where the wanted and disturbing signals are at differ
29、ent wavelengths. 3.1.4 inter-channel crosstalk penalty: The penalty assigned in the system budget to account for inter-channel crosstalk. 3.1.5 interferometric crosstalk: The ratio of the disturbing optical power to the wanted optical power detected by the receiver where the wanted and disturbing si
30、gnals can be at the same wavelength. 3.1.6 interferometric crosstalk penalty: The penalty assigned in the system budget to account for interferometric crosstalk. 3.1.7 transmitter (or receiver) setting error: The maximum angle between the axis of the transmitter (or receiver) and a straight line joi
31、ning the transmitter and receiver together. 3.1.8 Rayleigh distance: This is defined as: =22distanceRayleigh Dwhere: D is the diameter of the transmitter lens is the wavelength 3.2 Terms defined in other Recommendations This Recommendation uses the following term defined in ITU-T Rec. G.957: Extinct
32、ion ratio. 4 Abbreviations This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations: FOV Field Of View FSO Free Space Optical RfsoReference plane just before the optical receiver input lens Rx Receiver SfsoReference plane just after the optical transmitter output lens Tx Transmitter ITU-T Rec.

34、on longitudinal compatibility The free space between the Sfsoand Rfsoreference planes in an FSO system is a shared medium employed by many other users for a variety of different purposes. In order to establish criteria for the co-location of FSO systems, the crosstalk ratio C generated by one system
35、 interfering with another is described in 6.1 and the effect of the weather on this crosstalk ratio is considered in 6.2. The optical power penalty caused by this crosstalk is then defined for two cases: Case A where the two systems can be at the same wavelength (see 6.3). Case B where the two syste
36、ms can not be at the same wavelength (see 6.4). 4 ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) The difference between these two cases is illustrated in Figure 6-1. Figure 6-1/G.640 Illustration of the difference between the cases covered by clauses 6.3 and 6.4 For bidirectional systems the two directions have to be c
37、onsidered separately. NOTE 1 For some FSO systems the source coherence is sufficiently low (especially in the case of LED-based systems) that even when the wavelengths are the same, interferometric crosstalk is not observed. For these co-located FSO systems, case B always applies. NOTE 2 Even for so
38、me laser-based FSO systems, the assumption of interferometric crosstalk may be pessimistic because the laser coherence may be largely destroyed by the atmosphere at some wavelengths. ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) 5 6.1 Crosstalk ratio between two FSO systems On the assumption that the beam produced by
39、an FSO transmitter can be approximated by a Gaussian beam, Figure 6-2 contains a reference diagram for a general FSO transmitter. Figure 6-2/G.640 Gaussian beam reference diagram for an FSO transmitter The optical power density of this beam at an angle to the beam axis is given by: 228edcOO= (6-1) w
40、here: Ocis the optical power density at the centre of the beam d is the beam divergence (the angle between the lines at which the power density falls to 1/e2) and is the angle between the beam axis and the measurement point If the curve of optical power density vs angle is known for a particular FSO
41、 system, then values from the curve should be used in place of the approximation from Equation 6-1. An example measured curve is shown in Figure 6-3. 6 ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) Figure 6-3/G.640 Example measured curve of power density vs angle The corresponding reference diagram for the FSO receive
42、r is given in Figure 6-4. Figure 6-4/G.640 Reference diagram for an FSO receiver The characteristic of detected power vs angle for an FSO receiver depends on a number of parameters including the focal length of the lens, the lens quality, and the diameter of the detector. If the diameter of the spot
43、 formed by the lens is smaller than the diameter of the detector, then the characteristic is approximately rectangular. However, if the diameter of the spot is approximately the same as the diameter of the detector, then the characteristic is an approximately Gaussian curve where the optical power (
44、incident at an angle to the receiver axis) detected by the receiver is given by: 228eaaRR= (6-2) ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) 7 where: Rais the optical power detected by the receiver when the light is incident along the receiver axis a is the acceptance angle (the angle between the lines at which the
45、power detected by the receiver falls to 1/e2) is the angle between the incident light and the axis of the receiver The two cases defined above are illustrated in Figures 6-5 and 6-6. Figure 6-5/G.640 Example measured curve of received power vs angle showing a rectangular shape Figure 6-6/G.640 Examp
46、le measured curve of received power vs angle showing a Gaussian shape 8 ITU-T Rec. G.640 (03/2006) As can be seen from Figure 6-5, the fit between the measured characteristic and the Gaussian curve is not very good for the rectangular case. Consequently, if the curve of optical power detected by the
47、 receiver vs angle is known for a particular FSO system, then values from the curve should be used in place of the approximation from Equation 6-2. For the case where the two systems cannot be at the same wavelength, optical filtering at the receiver may further reduce the amount of interfering powe
48、r detected with respect to the wanted power. This effect is illustrated in Figure 6-7. Figure 6-7/G.640 Illustration of reduction of the interfering power due to optical filtering Figure 6-8 shows the general case of one FSO system interfering with another.

G.640 (03/2006) 9 This leads to an equation for the crosstalk ratio C: 222288eeadWIOOLC= (6-3) where: L is the ratio of optical filter loss between the wanted and interfering wavelength ranges as illustrated in Figure 6-7 (this would be 1 if the ranges overlap (Case A) or if both ranges are within a flat region of the filter characteristic) OWis the minimum power density at the centre of the wanted beam Iis the maximum power density at the centre of the inte
