We present theoretical and experimental investigation of enhancing the performance of a WDM-based high-loss loopback monitoring system using an increased number of averages of the returned supervisory pulses. We prove that the electrical signal-to-noise ratio of the supervisory signal is significantly improved with more averaging repeatability at the supervisory receiver. We also show that such an enhancement will be at the expense of the pulse measurement time if large number of averages is used. Therefore, we explore the optimal averaging situation in which the monitoring performance is reasonably enhanced while a satisfactory measurement time is simultaneously maintained..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
