This invention provides a method for commissioning an optical network using internal Automatic Spontaneous Emission (ASE) light inherently present in the optical network as a light source (the ASE light source) for measuring losses inside and between nodes in the network. A modular segmented approach is adopted and the network is commissioned segment by segment. The method uses techniques for the correction of the Optical Signal to Noise Ratio induced error as well as the Spectral Filtering Error during the loss computation required for adjusting the gains of the amplifiers at each network node to an appropriate value. Since the method does not require an external laser source that needs to be moved manually from node to node, it greatly reduces the commissioning time. Since it uses only the existing components of the network nodes it also leads to a significant saving in cost.

Procédé de mise en service d'un réseau optique au moyen d'une lumière d'émission spontanée automatique interne ASE inhérente au réseau optique à titre de source lumineuse (source lumineuse ASE) permettant de mesurer les pertes dans et entre les noeuds du réseau. Une approche segmentée modulaire est adoptée et le réseau est mis en service segment par segment. Le procédé utilise les techniques pour la correction de l'erreur induite par le rapport bruit-signal optique ainsi que de l'erreur de filtrage spectrale pendant le calcul de perte nécessaire pour régler les gains des amplificateurs à chaque noeud de réseau à une valeur adéquate. Comme le procédé ne nécessite pas une source laser externe à manipulation manuelle noeud par noeud, il réduit considérablement la durée de mise en service. Comme il n'utilise que les composants existants des noeuds de réseau, il entraîne en outre une économie considérable des coûts.
