- Scope
- The purpose of this part of IEC 61282@ which is a Technical Report@ is to provide a definition for in-band optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) that is applicable to situations where the spectral noise power density is not independent of the optical frequency@ as assumed in the OSNR definition of IEC 61280-2-9@ but is significantly shaped across the optical bandwidth of the signal. Considering the development of multiple measurement methods for different use cases@ as detailed below@ it is desirable to establish a definition of in-band OSNR that is independent of the method used and@ furthermore@ is consistent with the OSNR definition of IEC 61280-2-9 in the case of frequency-independent noise power density.
