Description

Optical differential quadrature phase shift keying demodulator
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a demodulator, and more particularly, to an optical differential quadrature phase shift keying demodulator.
Background
In a high-speed optical fiber transmission system (40G/100G), a Differential Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (DQPSK) signal modulation technique is commonly used, wherein DQPSK is a multi-level differential phase shift keying format, which represents transmitted bit information with four phase differences between adjacent symbols, and at a receiving end based on the differential phase modulation format, a demodulator is required to convert the phase modulation into intensity modulation so as to extract information in code and differential phases, and at present, the demodulator is generally implemented by using optical waveguide technology and Etalon technology design.
Among demodulators based on optical waveguide technology, the DQPSK demodulator is composed of two delay interferometers (DLIs) and two corresponding pairs of photodetectors, and its structure is shown in fig. 1. The method is characterized in that a 3dB coupler and two delay interferometers with the same delay are integrated by utilizing waveguide manufacturing, the delay of the delay interferometers is determined by the length difference of interference arms, the length difference delta L is selected according to the signal rate R to be demodulated, and the relation between the length difference delta L and the signal rate R is delta L = C/R, wherein C is the speed of light in the waveguide. The two delay interferometers generate a phase difference of 90 degrees through the pre-design of the arm lengths of the two delay interferometers or the subsequent processing, so that the demodulation of the DQPSK signal is realized. .
In the demodulator based on the Etalon technology, the time delay interferometer principle is also adopted, and the DQPSK demodulator is composed of two double-fiber collimators, two single-fiber collimators, two beam splitters, four Etalon and a coupler, and the structure of the DQPSK demodulator is shown in FIG. 2. The function that the two time delay interferometers have a phase difference of 90 degrees is realized by adjusting the length of any one of the four etalons.
Due to the characteristics of large insertion loss and polarization dependent loss in the aspect of optical waveguide technology performance and high refractive index temperature sensitivity, the optical demodulator based on the optical waveguide technology has high insertion loss and polarization dependent loss and needs more accurate temperature control, and the cost of the optical demodulator based on the optical waveguide technology is high due to the high price and large investment of equipment required by the optical waveguide technology. In addition, the demodulator based on the Etalon technology has the disadvantages that the two time delay interferometers cannot share devices, so that a large number of optical devices are used, the size is large, phase separation is realized by changing the length of Etalon, the process is complex, and the adjustment is difficult.
