Scope

This part of 61290 applies to commercially available optical amplifiers (OAs) such as optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs), semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and planar waveguide amplifiers (PWOAs) as classified in IEC 61292-3. The object of this standard is to establish uniform requirements for accurate and reliable measurements, by means of the optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) test method, of the following OA parameters, as defined in IEC 61291-1: a) signal-spontaneous noise figure; b) forward amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) power level. The methods described in this part of IEC 61290 apply to single-channel stimulus only. Two alternatives for determ
