3 1. Market trends Mobile Network I&M Solutions MT1000A platform for more efficient and higher reliability antenna, base station, and backhaul I&M 3

4 2. Fiber Connectors (1/3) What is fiber? There are two types of fiber: Single Mode (SM) and Multimode (MM). MM fiber has a core diameter of either 50 or 62.5 μm. The cladding is 125 μm. Core 8-9 m Cladding 125 m Core 50 m 62.5 m SM fiber has a core diameter of just 8 to 9 μm, and the cladding is 125 μm. 4

5 2. Fiber Connectors (2/3) What is a connector? Causes Loss and reflectance Poor mating at fiber end faces (physical connectors) Reflections due to different refractive indexes (called Fresnel Reflection) Connection with degraded transmissions due to light returning to source and multiple reflections (FC) Flat Polished (Flat Connectors) (PC) Spherical Polished (Physical Contact) (SPC) Super Polish PC (UPC) Ultra Polish PC (APC) Angular Polished 5

6 2. Fiber Connectors (3/3) Connector Types Mechanical Connection Connect/Disconnect Connection Loss: 0.1 to 0.5 db *1 Reflection Attenuation (-40 to -60 db) *1 Blue usually indicated UPC (ultra/flat) Green usually indicated APC (angled polished connector) *1: Typical value 6

7 3. OTDR Fundamentals (1/5) What is OTDR and what does it do? Distance/Length Loss/Attenuation Reflectance/ORL OTDR can measure from one end! 7

8 3. OTDR Fundamentals (2/5) OTDR Basic Principles An optical pulse is launched into the optical fiber and Rayleigh backscattered light and Fresnel reflections occurring in the optical fiber are received to measure the fiber length, loss, and return loss from the received light waveform. Splice connection Connector Break LD Pulse Generator Clock APD CPU Optical Coupler Amplifier OTDR Received optical level (db) Rayleigh scatter Reflection Attenuation Fresnel Reflection Connection Loss Length Fiber Loss Distance (km) 8

9 3. OTDR Fundamentals (3/5) Rayleigh scatter This scattered light is generated by small random density differences in the optical fiber. It causes transmission path loss. Fiber Scattering Types Explanation Rayleigh Raman Brillouin Scattered light has same frequency as injected light ; caused by small random differences in fiber internal density. Can be used for measuring loss distribution -> OTDR measurement Scattered light has different frequency to injected light ; caused by interactions in fiber such as molecular vibration. Can be used to measure temperature distribution because has clear temperature dependency related to anti-stokes light. Scattered light has slightly different frequency to injected light ; caused by interactions with sound waves in fiber. Can used for distortion distribution measurements because Quarts-fiber Brilloiun frequency shift related to strain distortion. Spectrum of different optical scattering Injected light Scattered Light Level Brilloiun Rayleigh Brilloiun Scattering Raman Raman Optical Frequency 9

10 3. OTDR Fundamentals (4/5) Fresnel scatter This scattering is caused by differences in the refractive index at boundary planes. It is one cause of loss. It can also causes degraded transmission waveforms due to light and reflections returning to the optical source. Air n % Glass n % Air n % Return Loss(Typical) Polish type RL Flat Polished (FC) 25 db Spherical Polished(PC) 40 db Super Polish PC(SPC) 50 db R:4% 96% 4% Ultra Polish PC (UPC) Angled Polish (APC) 55 db 65 db R = (n 1 - n 2 ) / (n 1 + n 2 ) 2 = (0.5 / 2.5) 2 = 1/25 (:4%, 14 db) 10

11 3. OTDR Fundamentals (5/5) OTDR trace Since distance is displayed on the horizontal time axis, the transmission path loss can be found from the Rayleigh backscatter slope, the connection loss can be found from the level difference in the Rayleigh backscatter, and the return loss can be found from the height of the Fresnel reflection level. Received Light Level (db) Rayleigh Scattering Slope of Rayleigh scattering is loss Height of Fresnel reflection is return loss Fresnel Reflection Rayleigh scattering level difference is connection loss Rayleigh scattering level difference is fiber loss Horizontal axis is distance (time) Distance (km) 11
