Calibration of optical spectrum analyzers

This International Standard provides procedures for calibrating an optical spectrum analyzer designed to measure the power distribution of an optical spectrum. This analyzer is equipped with an input port for use with a fibre-optic connector. An optical spectrum analyzer is equipped with the following minimum features: a) the ability to present a display of an optical spectrum with respect to absolute wavelength; b) a marker/cursor that displays the optical power and wavelength at a point on the spectrum display.

Calibration of optical spectrum analyzers

Provides procedures for calibrating an optical spectrum analyzer designed to measure the power distribution of an optical spectrum; this analyzer is equiped with an input port for use with a fibre-optic connector. This document applies to optical spectrum analyzers developed for use in fibre-optic communications and is limited to equipment that can directly measure the optical spectrum output from an optical fibre, where the optical fibre is connected to an input port installed in the optical spectrum analyzer through a fibre-optic connector.

Calibration of wavelength/optical frequency measurement instruments - Part 1: Optical spectrum analyzers

IEC 62129-1:2016 specifies procedures for calibrating an optical spectrum analyzer that is developed for use in fibre-optic communications and designed to measure the power distribution of an optical spectrum. It does not apply to an optical wavelength meter that measures only centre wavelengths, a Fabry-Perot interferometer or a monochromator that has no display unit. This first edition of IEC 62129-1 cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 62129, published in 2006. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - update of term and definitions; - update of calibration conditions; - calculation change of uncertainties related to wavelength temperature dependence, power linearity, power level temperature dependence; - move of Annex E to the bibliography. Keywords: calibrating an optical spectrum analyser
