La CEI 62190-4-1:2011 s'applique aux amplificateurs à fibre dopée à l'erbium (EDFA) et aux sous-systèmes élémentaires à amplification optique. Elle s'applique aux AO utilisant des fibres actives (amplificateurs à fibres optiques, AFO), contenant des dopants aux terres rares. Ces amplificateurs sont disponibles sur le marché et sont largement déployés dans les réseaux de prestataires de service.
Optični ojačevalniki - Preskusne metode - 4-1. del: Prehodni parametri ojačenja - Dvovalovna metoda (IEC 61290-4-1:2011)
Ta del IEC 61290-4 velja za optične ojačevalnike (EDFA), ojačene z erbijem, in optično ojačene elementarne podsisteme. Velja za optične ojačevalnike, ki uporabljajo aktivna vlakna (ojačevalniki z optičnimi vlakni, OFA), ki vsebujejo ojačitve z redkimi zemeljskimi elementi. Ti ojačevalniki so komercialno dostopni in se široko uporabljajo v omrežjih ponudnikov storitev. Namen tega dela IEC 61290-4 je zagotoviti splošno ozadje za prehodne in sorodne parametre EDFA in opisati standardno preskusno metodo za točno in zanesljivo merjenje naslednjih prehodnih parametrov: - dodajanje/odvzemanje kanalov s prehodno prekoračitvijo in neto prehodno prekoračitvijo – dodajanje/odvzemanje kanalov s prehodnim primanjkljajem in prehodnim neto primanjkljajem – dodajanje/odvzemanja kanalov z izravnavo – dodajanje/odvzemanje kanalov s prehodno konstanto odzivnega časa (čas umirjanja).

FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization 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 International 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 participate 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 between 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 Publications 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 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 national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition 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 direct 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 indispensable 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 61290-4-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 86C: Fibre optic systems and active devices, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre Optics. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: CDV Report on voting 86C/956/CDV 86C/1011/RVC
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. SIST EN 61290-4-1:2011

A list of all parts of the IEC 61290 series, published under the general title Optical amplifiers – Test methods can be found on the IEC website. Future standards in this series will carry the new general title as cited above. Titles of existing standards in this series will be updated at the time of the next edition. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed, • withdrawn, • replaced by a revised edition, or • amended.
IMPORTANT – The 'colour inside' logo on the cover page of this publication indicates that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding of its contents. Users should therefore print this document using a colour printer.

INTRODUCTION This part of IEC 61290-4 is devoted to the subject of Optical Amplifiers (OAs). The technology of optical amplifiers is quite new and still emerging; hence amendments and new editions to this standard can be expected. Each abbreviation introduced in this standard is explained in the text at least the first time it appears. However, for an easier understanding of the whole text, a list of all abbreviations used in this standard is given in 3.3. Background information on the transient phenomenon in erbium-doped fibre amplifiers and the consequences on fibre optic systems is provided in Annex A and on slew rate effects in Annex B.
