An optical power meter (OPM) is a device used to measure the power in an optical signal. The term usually refers to a device for testing average power in fiber optic systems. Other general purpose light power measuring devices are usually called radiometers, photometers, laser power meters (can be photodiode sensors or thermopile laser sensors), light meters or lux meters. A typical optical power meter consists of a calibrated sensor, measuring amplifier and display. The sens
In order to perform loss testing using an optical power meter and an optical laser source, one must first "reference out" the test cables in order to provide an accurate result. This very simple
The NIST primary standard for all power measurements is an ECPR, or electrically calibrated pyroelectric radiometer, which measures optical power by comparing
NIST has established measurement services for the calibration of optical fiber power meters at the three nominal wavelengths of 850, 1300, and 1550 nm using either collimated beam or optical
