Full Description

This part of IEC 61280 establishes the characterization process of the encircled flux measurement method of light sources intended to be used with multimode fibre.

This document sets forth a procedure for the collection of two-dimensional fibre optic nearfield greyscale data and subsequent reduction to one-dimensional data expressed as a set of three sampled parametric functions of radius from the fibre’s optical centre.

Estimation of the fibre core diameter is not an objective of this document.
