    However, should a faster update be desired, for example when real-time feedback is required to tune a laser to its designated channel, the HP 86120A can be set to update approximately four times per second. This reduces both wavelength resolution and accuracy but can be beneficial in some applications.

  • Page 43: Defining Laser-Line Peaks

    Defining Laser-Line Peaks Defining Laser-Line Peaks The HP 86120A uses two rules to identify valid laser-line peaks. Understand- ing these rules is essential to getting the most from your measurements. For example, these rules allow you to “hide” AM modulation sidebands or locate laser lines with small amplitudes.
  • Page 44 Making Measurements Defining Laser-Line Peaks Peak excursion The peak excursion defines the rise and fall in amplitude that must take place in order for a laser line to be recognized. The rise and fall can be out of the noise, or in the case of two closely spaced signals, out of the filter skirts of the adjacent signal.
  • Page 45 Limiting the input wavelength range The HP 86120A’s preset condition limits the wavelength measurement range from 1200 nm to 1650 nm. You can expand the wavelength range to cover the entire 700 nm to 1650 nm range. Although wavelength range limiting reduces...

  • Page 55: Measuring Signal-To-Noise Ratios

    Signal-to-noise measurements are especially important in WDM sys- tems because there is a direct relation between signal-to-noise and bit error rate. The HP 86120A displays signal-to-noise measurements in the third col- umn. For example, the selected signal in the following figure has a signal-to- noise ratio of 23.4 dB/nm.
  • Page 56 Location of noise measurements Automatic interpolation When the signal-to-noise “auto” function is selected, the HP 86120A first determines the proximity of any adjacent signal. If the next closest signal is ≤200 GHz (approximately 1.6 nm at 1550 nm) away from the signal of interest, then the noise power is measured half way between the two channels and an equal distance to the other side of the signal of interest.
  • Page 57 PRBS data and SONET formats, there is significant low-frequency ampli- tude modulation of the laser. This modulation raises the noise floor of the HP 86120A significantly. The signal-to-noise measured can be limited to about 15 dB while measur- ing lasers modulated by repetitive data formats.

  • Page 59: Measuring Coherence Length

    Measuring Coherence Length Coherence length is a measure of the distance over which a laser’s light retains the phase relationships of its spectrum. The HP 86120A measures coherence length of Fabry-Perot semiconductor diode lasers. The HP 86120A cannot measure coherence length of light emitting diodes (LEDs) or distributed feed- back (DFB) lasers.
  • Page 60 Making Measurements Measuring Coherence Length The amplitudes of the peaks decreases exponentially from the largest peak at zero path delay. The exponential decay constant is defined as the coherence length, Lc. The curve that connects the tops of the envelope peaks is given by the following equation: –...
  • Page 61 Making Measurements Measuring Coherence Length The smaller the alpha factor, the shorter the coherence length. Alpha factor ----- - Beta factor The beta factor is defined as the height of the fringe visibility envelope mid- way between the zero optical path delay peak and the next peak relative to the height of the envelope peak at zero path delay.

  • Page 62: Measuring Modulated Lasers

    Making Measurements Measuring Modulated Lasers Measuring Modulated Lasers A laser that is amplitude modulated at low frequencies (for example, modu- lated in the audio frequency range) can cause spurious wavelengths to be dis- played below and above the correct wavelength. The power of these spurious wavelengths is below that of the correct wavelength.

    Measuring Total Power Greater than 10 dBm Measuring Total Power Greater than 10 dBm The maximum total power that can be measured by the HP 86120A is 10 dBm. However, with the addition of an external attenuator, more power can be applied.

  • Page 64: Calibrating Measurements

    Because all measurements made inside the HP 86120A are performed in air, the density of air, due to elevation, affects the wavelength results. You must calibrate the HP 86120A by entering the elevation. Elevations from 0 to 5000 meters can be entered. The elevation correction is immediately applied to the current measurement even if the instrument is in the single measurement acquisition mode.
  • Page 65 Entries jump in 500 meter steps from 0 m to 5000 m. In order for the HP 86120A to meet its published specifications, the eleva- tion value selected with the softkeys must be within 250 meters of the ac- tual elevation.

    Use dry connections. Dry connectors are easier to clean and to keep clean. Dry connections can be used with physically contacting connectors (for exam- ple, Diamond HMS-10/HP, FC/PC, DIN, and ST). If a dry connection has 40 dB return loss or better, making a wet connection will probably not improve (and can degrade) performance.

  • Page 78: Making Measurements

    Making measurements remotely involves changing the HP 86120A’s settings, performing a measurement, and then returning the data to the computer. The simplified block diagram of the HP 86120A shown here lists some of the avail- able programming commands. Each command is placed next to the instru- ment section it configures or queries data from.
  • Page 79 But, because only 8,192 data values are collected in fast-update measure- ment mode, the ability to resolve closely spaced signals is reduced. After collecting the uncorrected data, the HP 86120A searches the data for the first 100 peak responses. (Searching starts at 1700 nm and progresses towards 700 nm).

  • Page 85 According to the SCPI command reference, ARRay command causes an instrument to take multiple measurements. (A <size> parameter indicates the number of measure- ments to take.) However, the HP 86120A’s ARRay command refers to the measurements performed for one measurement sweep; this results in an array of measured signals.
  • Page 86 Programming Making Measurements For example, suppose that you wanted to set the elevation correction value and then send an :INIT:IMM command. The following programming fragment results in an error –213 “Init ignored”.

  • Page 88: Monitoring The Instrument

    Monitoring the Instrument Monitoring the Instrument Almost every program that you write will need to monitor the HP 86120A for its operating status. This includes querying execution or command errors and determining whether or not measurements have been completed. Several sta- tus registers and queues are provided to accomplish these tasks.

  • Page 89: Status Registers

    Programming Monitoring the Instrument Status registers The HP 86120A provides four registers which you can query to monitor the instrument’s condition. These registers allow you to determine the following items: • Status of an operation • Availability of the measured data •...
  • Page 90 Programming Monitoring the Instrument 3-18...
  • Page 91 Monitoring the Instrument The Status Byte Register can be read using either the *STB? common com- mand or the HP-IB serial poll command. Both commands return the decimal- weighted sum of all set bits in the register. The difference between the two methods is that the serial poll command reads bit 6 as the Request Service (RQS) bit and clears the bit which clears the SRQ interrupt.
  • Page 92 Programming Monitoring the Instrument Table 3-4. Bits in Questionable Status Register Definition 0, 1, and 2 not used POWer - indicating that the instrument is measuring too high of a power. 3 through 8 not used Maximum signals - indicating that the instrument has found the maximum number of signals.
  • Page 93 Programming Monitoring the Instrument Enabling register bits with masks Several masks are available which you can use to enable or disable individual bits in each register. For example, you can disable the Hardcopy bit in the OPERation Status Register so that even though it goes high, it can never set the summary bit in the status byte high.
  • Page 94 This summary bit sets the MAV bit (bit 4) in the Status Byte Register. The method used to read the Output Queue depends upon the programming language and environment. For example, with HP Basic, the output queue may be read using the ENTER statement.

  • Page 98 Programming Reviewing SCPI Syntax Rules Sending common commands If a subsystem has been selected and a common command is received by the instrument, the instrument remains in the selected subsystem. For example, if the program message ”DISPLAY:MARK:MAX:LEFT;*CLS;DISP:MARK:MAX:RIGH” is received by the instrument, the Display subsystem remains selected. If some other type of command is received within a program message, you must reenter the original subsystem after the command.
  • Page 99 Programming Reviewing SCPI Syntax Rules If a measurement cannot be made, no response is given and an error is placed into the error queue. For example, *RST FETCh:POW? will timeout the controller and place a Data stale or corrupt error ino the error queue.
  • Page 100 The answer remains in the output queue until it is read or another command is issued.
