For the measurement of spectral attenuation of optical fibers in the range 800-1600 nm, an instrument based on a halogen-tungsten lamp pulsed at a few Hz has been designed and developed. This approach has shown to have substantial advantages over the usual chopped-light technique. With a low-noise preamplifier (-110 dBm sensitivity), the instrument offers a >40 dB dynamic range of attenuation measurement in monomode fibers, and can operate in both analog and digital mode.

Abstract
For the measurement of spectral attenuation of optical fibers in the range 800-1600 nm, an instrument based on a halogen-tungsten lamp pulsed at a few Hz has been designed and developed. This approach has shown to have substantial advantages over the usual chopped-light technique. With a low-noise preamplifier (-110 dBm sensitivity), the instrument offers a >40 dB dynamic range of attenuation measurement in monomode fibers, and can operate in both analog and digital mode.File in questo prodotto:
