Promising Approaches to the Development of Measurement Assurance in the Field of Measurements of the Average Power of Optical Radiation for Fiber-Optic Information Transmission Systems

Promising approaches to the development of measurement assurance in the field of measurements of the average power of optical radiation in fiber-optic systems are considered. Approaches for use in the solution of the problem that also make it possible to expand the values of the unit of average power of optical radiation from 5·10 –4 – 10 –3 W to 10 –5 –2.5·10 2 W reproducible by the existing standard GET 170–2011 are proposed.
