Why should you use DD IEC/PAS 62593- Mach-Zehnder optical modulators?
A variety of microwave-photonic devices are used in wireless communication and broadcasting systems. An optical modulator is an interface that converts an electronic signal into an optical signal. In the field of wireless systems, specifications of inter-modulation and composite distortion of modulators have been an important issue and have typically been negotiated between users and suppliers.
DD IEC/PAS 62593 provides you with industry-standard measurement methods for evaluating electro-optic material-based Mach-Zehnder optical modulators to be used in wireless communication and broadcasting systems. It contributes to the calculation of the optical modulation index (OMI) from the half-wavelength voltage measurement results, which is helpful for obtaining intermodulation distortion of the Mach-Zehnder optical modulator.
DD IEC/PAS 62593 describes the measurement method of the half-wavelength voltage for Mach-Zehnder optical modulators. DD IEC/PAS 62593 also presents the users with details of calculations of the second-order intermodulation distortion (IM2) and the third-order intermodulation distortion (IM3).
