EN IEC 61290-1:2022

Optical amplifiers - Test methods - Part 1: Power and gain parameters

IEC 61290-1:2022 is available as IEC 61290-1:2022 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 61290-1:2022 applies to all commercially available optical amplifiers (OAs) and optically amplified subsystems. It applies to OAs using optically pumped fibres (optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs) based on either rare-earth doped fibres or on the Raman effect), semiconductors (semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs)), and aveguides (planar optical waveguide amplifiers (POWAs)). It is specifically directed to single-channel amplifiers. Test methods for multichannel amplifiers are defined in the IEC 61290-10 series. This document establishes uniform requirements for accurate and reliable measurements of the following OA parameters, as defined in IEC 61291-1:2018, Clause 3: a) nominal output signal power; b) gain; c) reverse gain; d) maximum gain; e) maximum gain wavelength; f) maximum gain variation with temperature; g) gain wavelength band; h) gain wavelength variation; i) gain stability; j) polarization-dependent gain; k) gain ripple (SOA only); l) large-signal output stability; m) saturation output power; n) maximum output signal power; o) maximum total output power. NOTE 1 The applicability of the test methods described in this document to distributed Raman amplifiers is still under study. NOTE 2 All numerical values followed by (‡) are suggested values for which the measurement is assured. Other values are acceptable if verified. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - specification of gain ripple as a new parameter; - specification of test method and test report for gain ripple measurements; - use of the term “measurement uncertainty” instead of “measurement accuracy”.

Amplificateurs optiques - Méthodes d'essai - Partie 1: Paramètres de puissance et de gain

IEC 61290-1:2022 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61290-1:2022 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.L'IEC 61290-1:2022 s’applique à tous les amplificateurs optiques (AO) et sous-systèmes à amplification optique, disponibles sur le marché. Elle s’applique aux AO utilisant des fibres pompées optiquement (amplificateurs à fibres optiques (AFO) basés sur des fibres dopées aux terres rares ou sur l’effet Raman), des semiconducteurs (amplificateurs optiques à semiconducteurs (SOA)), et des guides d’ondes (amplificateurs à guide d’ondes optiques planaires (POWA)). Elle est spécifiquement centrée sur les amplificateurs à un seul canal. Les méthodes d'essai pour les amplificateurs à canaux multiples sont définies dans la série IEC 61290-10. Le présent document établit des exigences uniformes pour des mesures précises et fiables des paramètres d’AO donnés ci-dessous, tels qu’ils sont définis dans l'IEC 61291-1:2018, Article 3: a) puissance nominale du signal de sortie; b) gain; c) gain inverse; d) Gain maximal; e) longueur d’onde du gain maximal; f) variation maximale du gain en fonction de la température; g) bande de longueur d’onde du gain; h) variation du gain en fonction de la longueur d’onde; i) stabilité du gain; j) gain dépendant de la polarisation; k) ondulation du gain (SOA uniquement); l) stabilité de sortie grands signaux; m) puissance de sortie en saturation; n) puissance maximale du signal de sortie; o) puissance de sortie totale maximale. NOTE 1 L’applicabilité des méthodes d’essai décrites dans le présent document à des amplificateurs à effet Raman répartis est toujours à l'étude. NOTE 2 Toutes les valeurs numériques suivies de (‡) sont des valeurs suggérées, pour lesquelles la mesure est assurée. D’autres valeurs sont acceptables, à condition d'être vérifiées. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2014. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: - spécification de l’ondulation du gain en tant que nouveau paramètre; - spécification de la méthode d’essai et du rapport d’essai pour les mesures d’ondulation du gain; - utilisation du terme “incertitude de mesure” au lieu de “précision de mesure”.

Optični ojačevalniki - Preskusne metode - 1. del: Parametri moči in ojačenja (IEC 61290-1:2022)

Ta del standarda IEC 61290 se uporablja za vse komercialno dostopne optične ojačevalnike (OA) in optično ojačane podsisteme. Uporablja se za optične ojačevalnike z optično črpanimi vlakni (ojačevalnike optičnih vlaken (OFA), ki temeljijo na dopiranih vlaknih redke zemljine ali Ramanovem efektu), polprevodnike (polprevodniške optične ojačevalnike (SOA)) in valovode (ravninske optične valovodne ojačevalnike (POWA)). Osrednji predmet obravnave so enokanalni ojačevalniki. Preskusne metode za večkanalne ojačevalnike so določene v skupini standardov IEC 61290-10.
Ta dokument določa enotne zahteve za točne in zanesljive meritve naslednjih parametrov optičnih ojačevalnikov, kot je določeno v točki 3 standarda IEC 61291-1:2018:
a) nazivna izhodna moč signala;
b) ojačanje;
c) obratno ojačanje;
d) največje ojačanje;
e) valovna dolžina največjega ojačanja;
f) spreminjanje največjega ojačanja s temperaturo;
g) pas valovne dolžine ojačanja;
h) spreminjanje valovne dolžine ojačanja;
i) stabilnost ojačanja;
j) ojačanje, odvisno od polarizacije;
k) nihanje ojačanja (samo polprevodniški optični ojačevalniki);
l) stabilnost izhoda velikih signalov;
m) izhodna moč nasičenosti;
n) največja izhodna moč signala;
o) največja skupna izhodna moč.
OPOMBA 1: Uporabnost preskusnih metod iz tega dokumenta za razpršene Ramanove ojačevalnike se še vedno preučuje.
OPOMBA 2: Vse številčne vrednosti, za katerimi je znak (‡), so predlagane vrednosti, za katere se zagotovi merjenje. Druge vrednosti se sprejmejo, če so preverjene.
