Abstract

The invention discloses a method for testing the cost of an optical channel, which is suitable for a product calibrated by a receiver. Compared with a method for testing the cost of the optical channel by measuring sensitivity twice on the basis of an optical attenuator, the method for testing the cost of the optical channel solves the problems of plugging consistency of optical fibers, calibration of the variable optical attenuator and the like. Compared with a method for testing the cost of the optical channel by utilizing an optical switch, the method for testing the cost of the optical channel does not need to use an optical splitter or the optical switch. The method can reduce the cost of a test system and can also improve the accuracy of testing the cost of the optical channel.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical communication, in particular to a method for testing optical channel cost. Background technique [0002] The optical channel penalty is a significant drop in receiver sensitivity due to the distortion of the signal waveform during channel transmission. It manifests itself as a shift of the system's BER (Bit Error Rate) curve towards higher input power levels. This corresponds to a positive channel cost. In some cases there will be a negative channel cost, but the probability is small. (A negative channel penalty indicates that channel-dependent distortion actually improves the less-than-perfect transmitter eye.) Ideally, the BER curve would simply be shifted, but changes in shape are not uncommon and would indicate BER floor rise. Because the channel penalty varies with receiver sensitivity, it should be tested at a BER of 10-12. [0003] The need to test the channel penalty is because the to...
