Optical amplifiers - Test methods - Part 3: Noise figure parameters

Optical amplifiers - Test methods - Part 3: Noise figure parameters

IEC 61290-3:2008 applies to all commercially available optical amplifiers (OAs), including OAs using optically pumped fibres (OFAs based on either rare-earth doped fibres or on the Raman effect), semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and planar waveguide optical amplifiers (PWOAs). The object of this standard is to provide the general background for OA noise figure parameters measurements and to indicate those IEC standard test methods for accurate and reliable measurements of OA parameters, as defined in IEC 61291-1. This edition includes updates to specifically address additional types of optical amplifiers and to highlight that the IEC 61290-3 series pertains to single-channel amplifiers. References have been added to the documents pertaining to multichannel amplifiers.

Lichtwellenleiter-Verstärker - Prüfverfahren - Teil 3: Rauschzahlparameter

Amplificateurs optiques - Méthodes d'essais - Partie 3: Paramètres du facteur de bruit

La CEI 61290-3:2008 concerne tous les amplificateurs optiques (AO) disponibles commercialement, y compris les AO utilisant des fibres pompées optiquement (AFO basées soit sur des fibres dopées aux terres rares, soit sur l'effet Raman), les amplificateurs optiques à semiconducteurs (AOS) et les amplificateurs optiques à guide d'onde planaire (PWOA: planar waveguide optical amplifiers). L'objet de cette norme est de fournir le contexte général pour les mesures des paramètres du facteur de bruit des AO et d'indiquer les méthodes d'essai normalisées de la CEI qui permettent la mesure précise et fiable des paramètres des AO, selon les définitions de la CEI 61291-1. Cette édition contient des mises à jour concernant particulièrement des types d'amplificateurs optiques supplémentaires, et met en évidence que la série CEI 61290-3 concerne les amplificateurs à un seul canal. Des références ont été ajoutées aux documents concernant les amplificateurs multicanaux.

Multichannel applications are covered in IEC 61291-4. The objective of this template is to provide a framework for the preparation of performance standards and/or product specifications defining the performance of OA devices used in single channel applications. In addition to the requirements specified in this template, a performance standard or product specification could include other parameters, such as ratings, operating conditions, tests, and pass/fail criteria. For a particular application, product specification writers could add specification parameters and/or groups of specification parameters to this template, without removing the parameters specified in this document. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - the test methods for gain ripple in Table 2, Table 4 and Table 6 refer now to the IEC 61290‑1 series; - the SOA definition (3.1.3) refers now to IEC 61931.

Optical amplifiers - Test methods - Part 4-3: Power transient parameters - Single channel optical amplifiers in output power control
SIST EN IEC 61290-4-3:2018

IEC 61290-4-3:2018 applies to output power controlled optically amplified, elementary sub‑systems. It applies to optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs) using active fibres containing rare‑earth dopants, presently commercially available, as indicated in IEC 61291-1, as well as alternative optical amplifiers that can be used for single channel output power controlled operation, such as semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). The object of this document is to provide the general background for optical amplifiers (OAs) power transients and their measurements and to indicate those IEC standard test methods for accurate and reliable measurements of the following transient parameters: a) transient power response; b) transient power overcompensation response; c) steady-state power offset; d) transient power response time. The stimulus and responses behaviours under consideration include the following: 1. channel power increase (step transient); 2. channel power reduction (inverse step transient); 3. channel power increase/reduction (pulse transient); 4. channel power reduction/increase (inverse pulse transient); 5. channel power increase/reduction/increase (lightning bolt transient); 6. channel power reduction/increase/reduction (inverse lightning bolt transient). These parameters have been included to provide a complete description of the transient behaviour of an output power transient controlled OA. The test definitions defined here are applicable if the amplifier is an OFA or an alternative OA. However, the description in Annex A concentrates on the physical performance of an OFA and provides a detailed description of the behaviour of an OFA; it does not give a similar description of other OA types. Annex B provides a detailed description background of the dynamic phenomenon in output power controlled amplifiers under transient conditions and Annex C details the impact of speed of transient inputs.This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical change with respect to the previous edition: alignment of the measure of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) relative to signal power with the definition in IEC 61290-3-3.

Optical amplifiers - Part 1: Generic specification
SIST EN IEC 61291-1:2018

IEC 61291-1:2018 applies to all commercially available optical amplifiers (OAs) and optically amplified assemblies. It applies to OAs using optically pumped fibres (OFAs based either on rare-earth doped fibres or on the Raman effect), semiconductors (SOAs), and waveguides (POWAs). The object of this document is - to establish uniform requirements for transmission, operation, reliability and environmental properties of OAs, and - to provide assistance to the purchaser in the selection of consistently high-quality OA products for his particular applications. Parameters specified for OAs are those characterizing the transmission, operation, reliability and environmental properties of the OA seen as a "black box" from a general point of view. In the sectional and detail specifications a subset of these parameters will be specified according to the type and application of the particular OA device or assembly. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2012. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - terms have been added for parameters from IEC 61290-4-3 and IEC 61290-10-5; - Clause 4 Classification has been removed, since this system is judged to be unused; - the definition of polarization mode dispersion (PMD) has been simplified.

Optical amplifiers - Part 5-2: Qualification specifications - Reliability qualification for optical fibre amplifiers
SIST EN 61291-5-2:2017

IEC 61291-5-2:2017(E) applies to optical amplifiers (OAs) and optically amplified, elementary sub-systems for terrestrial applications, using active fibres (optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs)) containing rare-earth dopants, which are commercially available. The black box approach is used in this document. The black box approach is adopted in order to give product specifications which are independent of OA implementation details. For reliability qualification purposes, some information about the internal components is needed; these internal parts are themselves treated as black boxes. This document gives requirements for the evaluation of OA reliability by combining the reliability of such internal black boxes. The object of this document is to specify the minimum list of reliability qualification tests, requirements on failure criteria during testing and on reliability predictions, and give the relevant normative references to establish a standard method for the assessment of the reliability of OFA devices and sub-systems in order to minimize risks and to promote product development and reliability qualification. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2002. It constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) removal of the contents on the relating quality management system from scope, terms and definitions, and the reliability requirements; b) moving fit-rate calculation to Annex B (informative); c) change of requirements for shock test; d) amendment of abbreviations related to changes a) and b).
