Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of optical communication, in particular to a radio frequency channelization method based on an optical comb double modulation sideband and an implementation device.
Background
Frequency channelization is the division of a frequency band into several sub-band-channels by a set of filters that cover the entire frequency band. CN108650013A discloses an optical frequency shift based channelizing system that does not require an optical comb signal generator, but the number of channels is proportional to the number of optical frequency shift modules, which requires the use of about N/2 optical frequency shift modules for N channels. The optical frequency shift module is realized by the DPMZM, and the cost and the control difficulty of single-sideband carrier suppression are higher. And when the number of channels is large, the system scale is smaller, namely the reusability of the device is stronger. CN102638302B discloses a channelized wideband multi-frequency measurement system based on coherent optical frequency comb, which is used for accurately measuring radio frequency. The comb-shaped comb specifically adopts the beat difference between a signal light frequency comb with comb teeth interval of 39.5GHz and a local oscillator light frequency comb with comb teeth interval of 40GHz, and due to the difference of free spectral ranges of the signal light frequency comb and the local oscillator light frequency comb, radio frequency signals at different frequency points are divided into different channels. The scheme needs a signal optical comb which is equal to a channel to realize the channelization of the radio frequency, and has higher cost and realization difficulty. The scheme disclosed by Broadband radio-frequency channel based on a 39GHz optical frequency comb, IEEE Photonics technologies letters, vol.24, No.8,2012, XiajunXie, Yitang Dai, Yu Ji, etc. is mainly as follows: microwave signals are multicast on an optical comb with comb tooth spacing of 39GHz through carrier suppression double-sideband modulation, and the multicast signals are periodically filtered by using an FP filter with comb tooth spacing of 40 GHz. The first comb tooth of the optical comb and the first filtering passband of the filter have a central frequency difference of 13 GHz. In demultiplexing, the channels are separated using the same channel spacing as the FP filter, i.e., a 40GHz wavelength demultiplexer. These radio frequency carriers, channelized in the optical domain, can be down-converted to an intermediate frequency output using PD direct probing or by coherent probing. It is explicitly mentioned in this document that after the RF signal is multicast on the optical comb, only the red-shifted carrier sideband is used for channelization, and the blue-shifted carrier sideband cannot pass through the FP filter in the scheme, i.e. only one-sided carrier can be used for channelization, and the energy utilization rate is not high.

4. Because the double-sideband modulation of the signal optical comb participates in processing such as channelized filtering and the like, the defect that only the upper sideband or the lower sideband is filtered in the traditional scheme is overcome, invalid sideband energy in the traditional scheme is used, and the energy utilization rate is improved.

EXAMPLE six
This embodiment describes the method or apparatus of the present invention by taking as an example the channelization process of an RF signal of 11-13GHz in a bandwidth of 0.5 GHz.
Number of channels being even, f1=11GHz、f2=13GHz、fBW0.5 GHz. In order to reduce the link insertion loss as much as possible, the channel separation module uses a wavelength division multiplexer. While the passband spacing of a standard wavelength division multiplexer is an integer multiple of 25 GHz. When the 11-13GHz signal is channelized according to the conventional method, if the local oscillator comb teeth spacing is 25GHz, the signal comb teeth spacing is 25GHz +/-0.5 GHz, and the 11-13GHz sideband can be aliased, as shown in FIG. 3. Therefore, only 50GHz local oscillator comb teeth and 50 +/-0.5 GHz signal comb teeth can be adopted, and 4 signal comb teeth at intervals of 50GHz +/-0.5 GHz and 4 local oscillator comb teeth at intervals of 50GHz are needed because only the upper sideband or the lower sideband is used in the prior art, as shown in FIG. 4.
When using the solution proposed by the present invention, FSR is first calculated according to equations (1) - (3)signal=49GHz, FSRlocal24GHz or 25 GHz. As can be seen from FIG. 5, when FSR is usedlocalWhen the frequency band is 24GHz, 2 signal optical combs with 49GHz intervals and 4 local oscillator optical combs with 25GHz intervals are used, so that the effect of carrying out channelization processing on 11-13GHz signals according to the 0.5GHz bandwidth can be achieved. As can be seen from FIG. 6, when FSR is usedlocalWhen the frequency is 25GHz, 3 signal optical combs with 49GHz intervals and 4 local oscillator comb teeth with 25GHz intervals are used to realize the channelization processing. Compared with the prior art, the interval between the first local oscillator comb teeth and the second local oscillator comb teeth is reduced to half of the original interval, and the realization difficulty of the local oscillator optical comb generation module can be reduced. Secondly, the number of the signal comb teeth is reduced, and the realization difficulty of the signal optical comb generation module can be reduced.
In addition, as can be seen from fig. 6, the four passbands of the optical filter can respectively filter out the frequency bands of 11-11.5GHz, 13-12.5GHz, 12-12.5GHz and 12-11.5GHz, i.e. the broadband signal of 11-13GHz can be separated in frequency domain according to the channel bandwidth of 0.5 GHz. The four frequency bands are not sorted according to 11-11.5GHz, 11.5-12GHz, 12-12.5GHz and 12.5-13GHz in the traditional sense, and due to the symmetry of the upper and lower sidebands, the frequency bands of 11.5-12GHz and 12.5-13GHz are also inverted from the traditional sequence, so that the frequency bands can be transposed after corresponding frequency band table look-up processing is carried out in a subsequent digital processing link.
When the channelization number is odd, taking the case of performing channelization on an 11-13.5GHz signal according to a bandwidth of 0.5GHz as an example, according to the description in the technical solution, if the number of channels is odd, then f1Is still 11GHz, f2Subtracting f from the maximum frequency of the RF signal to be processedBWI.e. f2=13.5GHz-0.5GHz=13GHz、 fBW0.5 GHz. The optical comb teeth and modulation sidebands that need to be added are shown in dashed lines in fig. 5 or fig. 6, and it can be seen that 3 signal optical combs at 49GHz intervals and 5 local oscillator comb teeth at 25GHz intervals need to be used. The effect that the interval of the local oscillation comb teeth is reduced to half of the original interval and the number of the signal optical comb teeth is reduced by two can be achieved.
From the implementation apparatus shown in fig. 2, the coherent light generation module generates two coherent optical signals, one of which enters the signal optical comb generation module as signal light, and the other of which enters the local oscillation optical comb generation module as local oscillation light. In order to ensure coherence of the signal optical comb and the local oscillator optical comb, the two optical combs are preferably homologous, and a typical mode is to generate two coherent sidebands by cascading a monochromatic laser and a mach-zehnder intensity modulator, and the two coherent sidebands are separated by an optical filter and then are respectively used as input of the signal optical comb and the local oscillator optical comb. There are various implementations of the signal optical comb and the local oscillator optical comb, and a typical implementation is to cascade a phase modulator and an intensity modulator (as in document 1 in the background art). When the wavelength interleaving filter is not used, the signal optical comb generating module generates 3 signal optical combs with 49GHz intervals, and the local oscillator optical comb generating module generates 5 local oscillator optical combs with 25GHz intervals. When the wavelength interleaving filter is used, the local oscillator optical comb is unchanged, the signal optical comb generating module generates 5 signal optical combs with 24.5GHz intervals, and odd channels are filtered out after the signal optical combs pass through the wavelength interleaving filter, namely the optical combs with 49GHz intervals. Therefore, the requirement of the system on the working frequency of the electro-optical modulator can be further reduced, and the implementation cost is reduced.
The signal optical comb is used as an optical carrier, and a broadband radio frequency signal is loaded through an electro-optical modulator. By adopting an optical filter with a period of 25GHz, such as an FP filter, each channel is separated in a frequency domain and combined with a local oscillator optical comb, and since the free frequency spectrum range of the local oscillator optical comb is also 25GHz, the carrier optical signals to be processed can be down-converted to the same frequency band through optical beat. And then the physical separation of a plurality of channels is realized by a channel separation device, such as a wavelength division multiplexer.
The invention is not limited to the foregoing embodiments. The invention extends to any novel feature or any novel combination of features disclosed in this specification and any novel method or process steps or any novel combination of features disclosed.
