Basic Knowledge
 Optical Power Unit

 mW (Milliwatt)
 Commonly used optical power unit
 dBm (Decibel for milliwatt)
 Optical power unit for the easy calculation
 dB (Decebel)
 Value for the optical power increased or decreased

Optical Power Debugging Purpose
 We have 3 Purposes:
 1. Make each channel has the same the optical power in the
transmission.
 2. Make the OA working in the Best State.
 3. Make the OTUR working in the Best State.
6
 Make each channel has the same optical power in the

transmission.
 In the transmission, the output power from OA cannot be as high as we want,
so the limited optical power should be allotted to each channel equally. After
demultiplexing, each receiver can get the same optical power.

 Control the difference between any two waves to less than 3dB.
The less difference the better.

 Make the OA working in the Best State.
OA has three working state:
Over-Saturated State;
Saturated State; ----This is the best working state.
Under-Saturated State;

 Make the OTU OCH input port working in the Best State.

Basic Optical Power Balancing Calculation
Formula 1: P λ1 P λ2 P λ3 P λN
PN=Pλ1+Pλ2+Pλ3+…+PλN (mW)
PN=P1+P1+P1+…+P1 (mW) Because Pλ1=Pλ2=…=PλN =

P1
=N×P1 (mW)
10lgPN=10lg(N×P1)
=10lgN+10lgP1 Because 10lgPN (mW) =PN (dBm)
PN=10lgN+P1 10lgP1 (mW) =P1 (dBm)
PN=10lgN+P1 (dBm)

10lgPout=10lgPin-10lgIL Because 10lgPout((mw)=Pout(dBm)
10lgPout((mw)=Pout(dBm)
Pout=Pin-IL (dBm)

Formula 3:

Pout=Pin×G (mw)

Pout=Pin+G (dBm)
