IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise Teleconference notes, 21 July 2004 Jonathan King IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
Agenda 1) attendees 2) agree minutes of last meeting 3) review tasks and mechanisms, and define key outputs for September interim meeting (date tbd) 4) next meeting date/time 5) any other business IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
1) Attendees • Jonathan King, Big Bear Networks • Piers Dawe, Agilent • Gary Schaulov, Rsoft • Matt Traverso, Opnext • Petre Popescu, Quake • John Dallesasse, Emcore • Yu Sun, Optium • Lars Thon, Aeluros 2) Minutes of last meeting agreed IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
3) Review of tasks and define key outputs • Review of time varying mechanisms (slide 5) • Review of tasks and next steps (slide 6) IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
3a) Review of time varying mechanisms • Connector offset: • static offset 3.5um average, 1.8um standard deviation for 50 micron fibre (i.e. 95% less than 7um). Do we need to scale for 62.5 micron fibre • connector offset may be a gearing factor; unlikely to be wiggled in a real service environment (more likely to see an exposed patchcord run perturbed by fan) • Fibre perturbation: • Fibre shaker may be necessary part of measurements may not be sufficient • May require a range of frequency and amplitude - 'perturbation mask' • large amplitude at low frequencies, smaller amplitude at higher frequencies • Laser wavelength • Rapid changes in laser wavelength result in modal noise; variance can be estimated using previous work - David Cunningham • Temperature • Petre Popescu agreed to model the evolution of channel characteristics as link and laser source temperature varied IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
3b) Review of tasks and next steps • Mechanisms: mechanical vibration rates - John Dallesasse (as 5b) • Experiment: relationship of perturbation spectrum to modal noise spectrum - Abhijit Phanse to check capacity for measurements at Scintera • Modeling: • Generate delay vs mode sets, and impulse responses for quasi-continuous perturbed link for selected launches, over Cambridge fibre set and 'standard link' - Yu Sun/Pete Hallemeier will present summary of work next meeting • Effect of temperature (link and source) - Petre Popescu will present summary of work to be performed next meeting • Modal noise: penalty for different laser types - David Cunningham • Real environments • Measurements of spectrum of time variation effects- volunteers tbd • What's already out there describing in-building environments - AINSI standard identified which may be pertinent; to be summarized by John Dallesasse and presented next meeting • 'Standard link' for modeling:Straw-man standard link to be prepared for discussion next meeting - Jonathan King IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
4) Next meeting • Wednesday 4th August 9am PCT, 5pm UK 5) Any other business • No issues raised IEEE802.3aq Channel model ad hocTask 2: Time-varying study & modal noise
