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.

Transmitting equipment for radiocommunication.

INTRODUCTION
A variety of microwave-photonic devices are used in wireless communication and broadcasting
systems. A photo-receiver is an interface which converts an optical signal to an electronic signal.
This International Standard has been prepared to provide methods for evaluating and calibrating
high speed photo-receivers to be used in Radio over Fibre systems.
The method utilizes a Mach-Zehnder modulator for generating two-tone lightwaves as stimulus
signals, to provide simpler and easier methods than the conventional method utilizing a complex
two-laser system phase-locked with each other.
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed
that compliance with this document may involve the use of a patent concerning a calibration
method and device for light intensity measuring instrument, as it relates to Clause 6.

1 Scope
This International Standard provides a method for measuring the frequency response of
optical-to-electric conversion devices in wireless communication and broadcasting systems.

Figure 1 – Definition of "conversion efficiency "
Note 2 to entry: Conversion efficiency k, which depends on modulating signal frequency,is often expressed in dB as
the ratio to the reference conversion efficiency of 1 (ampere per watt). It is well known, however, that dB has two
definitions. One is the optical conversion efficiency k [dB ] calculated from 10×log (∆I /∆P ), and the other is the
o o 10 out in
electrical conversion efficiency k [dB ] calculated from 20× log (∆I /∆P ). As for the conversion efficiency k, the
e e 10 out in
numerator is the amplitude of the electrical output signal, and the denominator is the power of optical input signal.
Therefore, both definitions of dB for conversion efficiency k and k are shown as follows:
o e
∆I

k = k [dB ] = 10 ∗log (2)
o o o 10

3.1.2
two-tone lightwave
lightwave that contains two dominant spectral components whose power difference is relatively
small and frequency separation is stable
Note 1 to entry: Undesired spectral components are suppressed significantly. The measurement methods described
in this standard utilize a Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) for two-tone signal generation, where the MZM is biased at
maximum or minimum transmission points (null or full bias) [1] . The suppression ratio of undesired components
depends on the on-off extinction ratio and chirp parameter of the MZM. By using active trimming, high extinction-ratio
and low chirp modulation can be achieved for ideal two-tone generation (see Annex A).
3.1.3
carrier-suppressed
situation when an MZM is biased at its minimum transmission point, the non-modulated carrier
lightwave transmitted through and the two arms of the MZM are cancelled with each other at the
output coupler
Note 1 to entry: The suppression ratio is related to how the two lightwaves in the two arms have the same power and
to their anti-phase at the output coupler.

4.1.1 General
A PD has a positive-negative (PN) junction which can be illuminated by an optical signal. When
a photon is incident to the PN junction, an electron is excited and an electron-hole pair is
generated. The electron and hole drift to the opposite direction because of the built-in and
reverse-biased voltage at the PN junction, and can be used as an output electric current.

The O/E conversion devices consist of basic parts as follows:
– PD;
– input fibre pigtail (where appropriate);
– input receptacle (where appropriate);
– output RF port (where appropriate);
– bias electrode (where appropriate);
– transimpedance amplifier (where appropriate);
– impedance matching resistor (where appropriate).
4.1.3 Structure
The structure consists of the following (see Figure 2):
– optical input: fibre pigtail or receptacle;
– RF output: coaxial connector, microstrip line, coplanar waveguide, antenna, etc.;
– options: bias electrode, transimpedance amplifier, impedance-matching resistor.
