Abstract

A type of light Signal-to-Noise detecting device in photoamplifier transmission link band includes pulse light signal generator, light splitter, photoelectric transducer, trigger, and spectrometer; the pulse light signal generator is meted into the system which is to be detected before the photoamplifier; the light splitter is connected with the light port of the light transmission system, the light splitter possesses two output, one is connected with the spectrometer, another is connected with the spectrometer via the photoelectric transducer and trigger. The invention also introduces the corresponding detecting method. Adopting the generation measure of trigger signal in test terminal, the invention possesses advancements of measuring light Signal-to-Noise precisely as common spectrometer, and effect that the light Signal-to-Noise of light transmission system can be detected by band-in method by common spectrometer can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a testing device for the in-band optical signal-to-noise ratio of a transmission link with an optical amplifier, in particular to optical transmission equipment in the field of optical communication. Background technique [0002] The general method of optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) test of optical transmission system is to use interpolation method, and the average value of the noise deviated from the center frequency of the signal is regarded as the noise at the signal frequency, and the ratio of the signal power to the noise power is the optical signal-to-noise ratio . This approach is generally referred to as the "out-of-band testing approach". [0003] There are some problems in the out-of-band test method. For example, in the dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) optical transmission system, when the optical add-drop multiplexer (OADM) is included, due to the filtering effect of the optical filter, the left a...
