-
Power Budget DefinitionPower budget is the difference between:The minimum (worst case) transmitter output powerThe maximum (worst case) receiver input requiredPower budget value is normally taken as worst case. In practice a higher power budget will most likely exist but it cannot be relied upon Available power budget may be specified in advance, e.g for 62.5/125 fibre in FDDI the power budget is 11 dB between transmitter and receiverTRANSMITTERRECEIVERFibre, connectors and splicesPower Budget (dB)

Photonic Layer DesignPower BudgetingThe purpose of so-called Photonic layer design process is to ensure that:The optical power reaching the receiver is adequate under all circumstancesThe link bandwidth is adequate.TransmitterTerminalReceiverTerminalOptical Fibre ConnectorOptical Fibre SpliceOptical FibreLegendPhotonic layer design involves:Carrying out a power budget calculation An evaluation of any power penalties Available power budget may be specified in advance, e.g for 62.5/125 fibre in FDDI the power budget is 11 dB between transmitter and receiverA receiver in an Optical System requires a minimum optical input power to operate as specified
-
Use of Power BudgetsAssume worst case transmitter output power is -10 dBm and the worst case receiver input power needed is -25 dBm Power budget =- 10 dBm - ( - 25 dBm )= 15 dB That is 15 dB of attenuation is possible over the link before failure occursAs a simple example to find the maximum fibre attenuation we eliminate from the 15 dB budget the loss due to connectors and splices
Less: Connector attenuation = 1 dBTotal splice attenuation= 1.2 dBSo: Total fibre attenuation allowed = 15 - 1 - 1.2 = 12.8 dB
Power budget calculations can produce a number of different results depending on how they are carried out. To check if adequate receiver power will be available, under all conditionsBased on a knowledge of the receiver sensitivity to determine the maximum loss of some component. Simple example to find total fibre loss allowed:Source: Master 5_1
-
Launch PowerLED/Laser SourceFibreTransmitter output power quoted in specifications is by convention the launch power.Launch power is the optical power coupled into the fibre.Launch power is less than the LED/Laser output power.Calculation of launch power for a given LED/Laser and fibre is very complex.Launch power
-
Power MarginPower margins are included for a number of reasons:To allow for ageing of sources and other components.To cater for extra splices, when cable repair is carried out.To allow for extra fibre, if rerouting is needed in the future.To allow for upgrades in the bit rate or advances in multiplexing.Remember that the typical operating lifetime of a communications transmission system may be as high as 20 to 30 years.No fixed rules exist, but a minimum for the power margin would be 2 dB, while values rarely exceed 8-10 dB. (depends on system)
-
Sample Power Budget Calculation (Telecoms)Fibre is normally only available in fixed lengths up to 2 km long, so fusion splices are required, to join lengths. In buildings fibre lengths will be much shorterIn most systems only two connectors are used, one at the transmitter and one the receiver terminal.

-
Sample Power Budget Exercise #1An optical fibre system is to operate at 622 Mbits/sec over a distance of 71 km without repeaters. Fibre with a worst case loss of 0.25 dB/km is available. The average distance between splices is approximately 1 km. There are two connectors and the worst case loss per connector is 0.4 dB. The power margin is to be at least 5 dB. The receiver sensitivity is -28 dBm and the transmitter output power is +1 dBm Determine the maximum allowable attenuation per fusion splice

More Advanced Power Budgets using Power Penalties
-
More Advanced Power Budgets: Power PenaltiesDispersion.Dependent on bit rate and fibre dispersion, Typical dispersion penalty is 1.5 dBReflection from passive components, such as connectors.Crosstalk in couplers.Modal noise in the fibre.Polarization sensitivity.Signal distortion at the transmitter (analog systems only). More sophisticated power budget calculations will include power penalties.A power penalty is defined as the increase in receiver power needed to eliminate the effect of some undesirable system noise or distortionTypically power penalties can result from:
-
Dispersion Penalty
-
Dispersion Penalty Defined as:The increase in the receiver input power needed to eliminate the degradation in the BER caused by fibre dispersionTypical value is about 1.5 dB. Several analytic rules exist:Low pass filter approximation ruleAllowable pulse broadening (Bellcore) rule
-
Dispersion Penalty VisualisedDefined as the increase in the receiver input power needed to eliminate the degradation caused by dispersionDefined at agreed Bit Error Probability, typically 1 x 10-9In the sample shown the receiver power levels required at 1 x 10-9 with & without dispersion are -35.2 dBm & -33.1 dBm respectivelyThe dispersion penalty is thus 2.1 dB-28-30-32-34-36-38-40Received power level in dBm10-1110-1010-910-810-710-610-510-4Dispersion presentNo dispersion Bit Error ProbabilityDispersion penalty

Dispersion Penalty Data
-
Low pass filter approximation rule for the Dispersion Penalty
-
Dispersion PenaltySimple analytic rule of thumb for calculating the dispersion penalty PdBased on two assumptions: that dispersion can be approximated by a low pass filter response.the data is the dotting 10101010 pattern. B is the bit rate in bits/sec and Dt is the total r.m.s impulse spread caused by dispersion over the fibre. To keep Pd < 1.5 dB, the B.Dt product must be less than 0.25 approximately.PBd=--101101222log(())pDt
-
Low pass filter approximation Dispersion Penalty Analysis (I)Assume that the transmitted pattern is very simple, e.g. the dotting pattern 10101010..... Also assume that most of the optical power in this pattern is contained in the component at f = B/2, where B is the bit rate and NRZ data is assumed. Finally for ease of analysis assume that A is 1.The extra attenuation caused by dispersion can be approximated by finding H(B/2). Effectively this extra attenuation appears as the dispersion penalty The transfer function for a fibre can be approximated by: ()[2]HfAft()=-12122pDA is the value of H(f) at DC, effectively the fibre attenuation. Dt is the RMS impulse broadening that occurs over the fibre.
-
Low pass filter approximationDispersion Penalty Analysis (II)Subsitute for H(B/2) using the formula for H(f) evaluated at f = b/2 to find PdTo compensate for this extra attenuation the transmitter output power must be increased by a factor:The dispersion penalty in dB is therefore:Pd=101)(HB210 Log []Pd=-1010 Log )(HB21)(HB2PBd=--101101222log(())pDtRearrange thus:
-
Allowable pulse broadening (Bellcore) rule for the Dispersion Penalty
-
Dispersion PenaltyApproach used in Bellcore recommendations for SONET over singlemode fibre, so it can be used for SDHSets defined values on dispersion penalty, 1 dB or 2 dB Based on defining ratio (e) of allowable pulse broadening (total dispersion, Dt) to the bit interval T, for a given dispersion penaltyAllows one to define maximum bit rate Bmax possible for a given dispersion penalty: Bmax < e10-6 .DtTotal dispersion, Dt is in picoseconds, ps, and the maximum bit rate Bmax is in Mbits/sec

Finding the Total Chromatic DispersionTotal Chromatic Dispersion, Dt = Dc x S x L
where:Dc is the dispersion coefficent for the fibre (ps/nm.km)S is transmitter source spectral width (nm)L is the total fibre span (km)Assuming singlemode fibre so there is no modal dispersionDoes not include polarization mode dispersionTypically the dispersion coefficent will be knownEg. ITU-T Rec.G.652 for singlemode fibres circa 1550 nm states: Attenuation < 0.25 dB/km Dispersion coefficent is 18 ps/(nm.km)

Link Bandwidth Analysis
-
Link Bandwidth Analysis A link bandwidth analysis can answer the following questions:The frequency response required for optical devices eg. source/detector/fibre.The bandwidth of a particular electronic subsystemThe magnitude of bandwidth limiting, so that a power penalty can be calculated Normal approach is carry out a worst case analysis using the risetimes of the various components. Bandwidth can then be determined approximately from the expression:3 dB bandwidth = 0.35Total risetime tr3 dB bandwidth (MHz) = 350Total risetime tr in nsor
-
Evaluating Link RisetimeIf a system consists of n subsystems, each with an individual risetime then the total risetime tr is given by:In an actual analysis the risetimes to be included are typically:Source risetime.Detector risetime.Receiver electrical risetime = 0.35/(rec BW).Fibre modal dispersion, if present.Fibre material dispersion.From this formula tr can be found OR if tr is specified, then the subsystem risetime can be found by rearranging the formula.

Sample Problems involving a Dispersion Penalty
-
Power Budget Exercise #4 Part 1An optical fibre system operates at 1550 nm at a bit rate of 622 Mbits/sec over a distance of 71 km Fibre with a worst case loss of 0.25 dB/km is available. The average distance between splices is approximately 1 km. There are two connectors and the worst case loss per connector is 0.4 dB.The worst case fusion splice loss is 0.07 dBThe receiver sensitivity is -28 dBm and the transmitter output power is +1 dBm The source spectral width is 0.12 nm and the fibre dispersion meets ITU recommendations at 1550 nm (17 ps/nm.km)Use the Low Pass Filter Approximation rule - formula or graphDetermine worst case power margin, taking account of a power penalty
-
Power Budget Exercise #4 Part 2The system described in Exercise #2 is to be upgraded to 2.5 Gbits/secThe span, fibre, connectors, splices are unchanged. The new transmitter output power and spectral width is the same The receiver sensitivity remains at -28 dBAgain use the Low Pass Filter Approximation rule - formula or graphDetermine the new worst case power margin, taking account of a power penalty
-
Options to Handle Poor MarginClearly negative margin is a problemCould assume higher performance transmitter (higher o/p power) at higher bit rate but would be offset by lower receiver sensitivity, so probably no net gainOther options:Given this is an upgrade scenario (fibre is installed), best approach it to measure actual attenuation and maybe dispersion, rather than use predicted values, probably will give acceptable margin. Might also consider the use of a dispersion compensation module

More Advanced Power Budgets using a Statistical Approach
-
More Advanced Power Budgets: Statistical Analysis ApproachIgnoring the statistical nature of component performance by using worst case values in every case can create extremely overconservative designs.Using average values only will give a more optimistic power budget but it may not be right every timeIn finding the total loss caused by fusion splices, if the worst case loss for a fusion splice is simply multiplied by the number of splices involved, the result would be a figure for the total splice loss that would virtually never occur in practice.

More advanced Power Budgets: Statistical Analysis ApproachIgnoring the statistical nature of component performance by using worst case values, in every case, can create extremely overconservative designs.If this approach continues into the installation, time will be wasted trying to solve "conditions" that do not really exist.In finding the total loss caused by fusion splices, if the worst case loss for a fusion splice is simply multiplied by the number of splices involved, the result would be a figure for the total splice loss that would virtually never occur in practice.

Using Statistical Component LossesComponent loss tends to follow a Normal (Gaussian) statistical distribution.In a statistical approach the average value and the so-called standard deviation for component losses are found from the manufacturers data.The statistical loss value used in the power budget calculation is then found by adding together the average value and one or more standard deviationsStatistically it is possible to predict how reliable the statistical loss value is:In power budget calculations, generally, the two standard deviation value is normally used. Difficulties can arise in getting statistical information on components. In this case use worst case for that component. Called a semi-statistical approachAverage + 1 Standard DeviationStatistical confidence level = 84.13 %Average + 2 Standard DeviationsStatistical confidence level = 97.73 %Average + 3 Standard DeviationsStatistical confidence level = 99.87%

Power Budget Exercise 5 :using a Statistical Approach
-
Statistical Power Budget Exercise 5 (Long-Haul)A 622 Mb/s optical transmission system is to operate at a wavelength of 1550 nm over an unrepeatered distance of 51 km. The transmitter available has a minimum fibre coupled output power of +4 dBm, while the receiver has a worst case sensitivity of -28 dBm.
Two types of fibre are available with different specifications as shown in Table 1 below. Two connectors are used in the system. The average distance between fusion splices is 700 m. The connector and fusion splice losses are shown in Table 2.

Statistical Power Budget Exercise 5 (Long-Haul)
Calculate the dispersion penalty associated with the use of each fibre. By preparing a two standard deviation statistical power budget using each fibre type in turn decide whether fibre type A or B should be used and why. State clearly any assumptions made.
Estimate the bit rate for the two standard deviation case at which the power margin falls below 2 dB for fibre A and B, Discuss your result in the context of the dispersion performance of the different fibres. (Should be able to change the bit rate in your dispersion formula to achieve this)
