Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical communication, in particular to an optical signal-to-noise ratio monitoring device and a monitoring method. Background technique [0002] In optical communication networks, in order to ensure good service quality, the importance of optical performance monitoring becomes more and more prominent. The monitoring technology of optical signal to noise ratio is one of the key technologies, because the bit error rate of signal reception directly depends on the optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR). In a wavelength division multiplexing system (WDM), the amplified spontaneous emission noise (ASE) in the signal bandpass accumulates continuously with the use of optical amplifiers. Outside the band pass, it is filtered multiple times. With the introduction of add-drop multiplexing equipment (ROADM), different channels will experience different times of multiplexing, demultiplexing and routing, and the noise...
