Highlights - ITU-T Question 17/15Optical Components and Subsystems Jim Matthews III Corning Incorporated
Field of Work • Optical Components • ITU-T Recommendation G.671 • Transmission Characteristics Of Optical Components And Subsystems • Optical Subsystems • ITU-T Recommendation G.661: Definition and test methods for the relevant generic parameters of optical amplifiers. • ITU-T Recommendation G.662: Generic characteristics of optical amplifier devices and subsystems. • ITU-T Recommendation G.663: Application related aspects of optically amplified devices and sub-systems
Optical Components • Text of Revised Draft Rec. G.671 Agreed May 2002 • Originally Passive Components • Passive / Active vs Point to Point / Networking • Now: ALL components • Definitions and Terms (Tied to IEC SC86B) • Table of Functional Requirements • Values: Specific or SBA (Specified By Application)
Recommendation G.671 Device Types: • Optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) subsystem • Asymmetric branching component • Optical attenuator • Optical branching component (wavelength non-selective) • Optical connector • Dynamic channel equaliser (DCE) • Optical filter • Optical isolator • Passive (chromatic) dispersion compensator • Optical splice • Optical switch • Optical termination • Tuneable filter • Optical wavelength multiplexer (MUX) / demultiplexer (DMUX) Coarse WDM (CWDM) device, Dense WDM (DWDM) device, Wide WDM (WWDM) device
ITU-T Question 17/15 Highlights - Next Steps • New Work on Appendix II for Recommendation G.663 • Enable 40 GB/s Applications • PMD Requirements (Align to IEC Document) • Revise Rec. G.661 and G.662? • Same as IEC 61291-1 • Collaboration with IEC SC86C / WG3 • Possible Supplement on Raman Amplification • Possible New Recommendation on PMD Compensators
Next Meeting • Experts Meeting - Santa Rosa, CA USA (7 October, 2002) • Annex or Corrigenda to G.663 / Appendix II • Progress on Supplement on Raman Amplification • Possible New Recommendation on PMD Compensators • Future revisions of Recommendations G.661 and G.662 on Optical Amplifiers • Next ITU-T Plenary - January 2003 (Geneva)
