Dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) technology are the provide solutions to increase the capacity of network. With the growth of using the OADM in DWDM system, it is more and more important to research the fault-locating fiber-link in-service supervisory technique for enhance the system reliability. Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) is a popular tool to offer an in-service fault-locating of fiber link in fiber-optic transmission systems. But in the DWDM network, this technique is never be used for in-service supervisory application on the system. Are different OADM structures will affect the in-service OTDR monitoring? Since OTDR operates with high peak powers, the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) effect in the conventional transmission fiber gives rise to power depletion of the data signal, and may degrade the bit-error-rate (BER) performance.
In this work, we investigate the in-service 1.65-£gm OTDR monitoring supported FBG-based OADM structures. We improved FBG sandwiched between a pair of three-port optical circulator and multi-port optical circulator (MOC) FBG-based OADM to support OTDR monitoring, and research the technique of in-service OTDR monitoring for FBG-based, MZ-FBG based OADM system. The system bit-error-rate due to the OTDR monitoring a 10-Gb/s long (> 80 km) distance fiber link is examined. Negligible system power penalty, due to the OTDR monitoring, of both structures in 10 Gb/s dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) link is achieved. That is mean the system with OTDR monitoring should have the in-service fault-location monitoring capability to enhance network reliability. We also investigate the in-service OTDR 1.65-£gm OTDR monitoring on the distributed Raman application system.
