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.
