Scope and object

This part of IEC 61290 applies to optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs) using active fibres, containing rare-earth dopants, presently commercially available.

The object of this standard is to establish uniform requirements for accurate and reliable measurements, by means of the electrical spectrum analyzer test method, of the following OFA parameters, as defined in clause 3 of IEC 61291-1:

a) small-signal gain;

b) reverse small-signal gain;

c) maximum small-signal gain;

d) maximum small-signal gain wavelength;

e) maximum small-signal gain variation with temperature;

f) small-signal gain wavelength band;

g) small-signal gain wavelength variation;

h) small-signal gain stability;

i) polarization-dependent gain variation.
