The invention aims to provide a communication system with self-power supply capability based on energy and information co-transmission of few-mode optical fibers. The energy-information common transmission system provided by the invention not only has the advantages of simple laying, low cost and self-supply of end point energy, but also can greatly improve the transmission capacity of the energy-information common transmission system.
In an embodiment of the present invention, a microsystem is provided, in which a few-mode-single-mode hybrid transmission link is used to implement self-power supply and information transmission, so as to construct an optical fiber communication network node with self-power supply capability, thereby not only providing a certain electric energy support, but also ensuring safe and reliable data communication and improving data transmission performance.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a short-mode fiber-based common transmission system according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the signaling and co-transmission system based on few-mode optical fiber of the present invention is mainly composed of three parts, including: a central control section, a transport section and functional end points. The central control part has a computer control terminal (not shown), a high power energy source 1 and a signal generating module (i.e. a signal source) 2. The high-power energy source 1 serves as an energy supply end of the whole system and is used for providing energy light under the control of the control terminal, and the high-power energy source meets the requirements of high power, low density, single mode and the like, so that the energy loss in transmission is less. In an embodiment of the invention, the high power energy source 1 may be a pump laser source. The signal source 2 is for generating signal light under the control of the control terminal. The control terminal is used for controlling the signal generation module and the high-power energy source, a feedback mechanism of double-end communication can be realized, and whether the pumping energy supplies energy to the function endpoint is controlled by receiving information transmitted by the function endpoint. In the embodiment of the present invention, the function endpoint is a communication node that provides a specific function and requires energy supply, such as a base station, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The medium of the transmission section is an optical fiber link for simultaneously transmitting the energy light and the signal light. In the embodiment of the invention, the optical fiber link comprises an uplink optical fiber link and a downlink optical fiber link.
Most of the existing energy-signaling and common-transmitting systems use single-mode optical fibers to build an optical fiber energy-signaling and common-transmitting system, that is, the single-mode optical fibers are used as optical fiber links to transmit energy light and signal light simultaneously. However, in the single-mode optical fiber, when the single-mode optical fiber is used for transmitting energy light, due to high fiber-entering optical power, relatively severe stimulated brillouin scattering is generated, so that an energy light transmission link has a relatively high nonlinear effect, and thus, the transmission capacity of the whole optical fiber transmission system is relatively low, the output power is relatively low, and the transmission distance of the energy light is also influenced. For communication optical signals, stimulated brillouin scattering also limits the signal-to-noise ratio and communication distance of the communication system.
Stimulated brillouin scattering is an important nonlinear effect in optical fibers, and is a result of the action of strongly induced acoustic waves on incident light, and the back transmission of brillouin scattering light not only damages the light source, but also can cause the relative intensity noise of the laser to deteriorate and increase the attenuation of a system link. If the power of the incident light entering the fibre is large enough, above a certain threshold, the power of the backscattered light resulting from stimulated backscatter may exceed the power lost to attenuation by the fibre, and coherent amplification of the acoustic wave field and scattered optical field will occur, resulting in stimulated brillouin scattering, which will convert most of the input power into backscattered light (stokes light).
The inventor finds that, in the process of implementing the invention, because the mode field area of the few-mode fiber is larger than that of the single-mode fiber, the stimulated brillouin scattering threshold value in the few-mode fiber is larger than that of the single-mode fiber under the same distance, that is, the few-mode fiber can improve the transmission capacity of a system compared with the single-mode fiber. However, it is well known that few-mode fibers are much more expensive than single-mode fibers, and that direct use of few-mode fibers for long-distance fiber power and communication is not feasible in most cases. In order to suppress the single mode fiber from stimulated brillouin scattering, the embodiment of the invention provides a technical scheme for constructing an integral novel optical fiber transmission link by adopting few-mode fibers and the single mode fiber, and the energy output of a system can be greatly improved.
In an embodiment of the invention, a section of few-mode fiber is connected to the tail end of the high-power laser, and because the mode field area of the few-mode fiber is larger than that of the single-mode fiber, the stimulated brillouin scattering threshold value in the few-mode fiber is larger than that of the single-mode fiber under the same distance, so that the transmission capacity of the system can be improved. Mode field matching can be used to connect single mode fibers after few mode fibers.
More specifically, the few-mode fiber and the single-mode fiber may be connected by fusion splicing, such as core fusion splicing or cladding fusion splicing. In other embodiments of the present invention, a section of the few-mode optical fiber as a transition fiber having a mode field diameter between the first few-mode optical fiber and the single-mode optical fiber may be further provided between the few-mode optical fiber (the first few-mode optical fiber) and the single-mode optical fiber, and the section of the few-mode optical fiber is fusion-spliced with the first few-mode optical fiber and the single-mode optical fiber, respectively.
In an embodiment of the present invention, only one of the uplink optical fiber link and the downlink optical fiber link, for example, the uplink optical fiber link is an optical fiber link capable of communicating, and the other optical fiber link (e.g., the lower optical fiber link) is a communication transmission link only, or vice versa.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the optical fiber link is a few-mode-single-mode hybrid transmission link, and is used for transmitting the energy light and the signal light. The few-mode-single-mode hybrid transmission link comprises a signal transmission optical cable, wherein an optical fiber in the signal transmission optical cable comprises an energy transmission part and a signal transmission part. In one embodiment of the invention, the energy transmission part and the signal transmission part are different optical fibers in the same optical cable. Because the optical power of the energy transmission part (energy transmission optical fiber) is high, in order to improve the system capacity and reduce the nonlinear effect, particularly the stimulated Brillouin scattering, the few-touch optical fiber is adopted at the initial end of the energy transmission part to increase the mode and the mode field area of optical wave transmission and reduce the threshold value of the stimulated Brillouin scattering, so that the nonlinear effect is reduced, and the transmission capacity of the system is improved. Considering from the cost and performance of the whole system, the energy transmission link of the few-mode-single-mode hybrid link is constructed by still adopting a single-mode optical fiber mode at the tail end of the energy transmission part, and the few-mode optical fiber and the single-mode optical fiber can be connected in a mode field matching mode; and the signal transmission part can adopt single mode fiber due to lower signal light power, namely, only the energy transmission part adopts a few-mode-single-mode mixed transmission mode, so that the cost of the whole system is reduced on the basis of ensuring energy and signal transmission capacity.
In another embodiment of the invention, the energy transmission part and the signal transmission part adopt different cores in the same multi-core optical fiber in the same optical cable. The energy transmission part comprises an energy transmission part and an energy transmission part, wherein the energy transmission part is provided with a few-mode fiber core at the initial end and a single-mode fiber core at the tail end, and the few-mode fiber core and the single-mode fiber core can be connected through fusion in a fiber core fusion mode. At this time, the signal transmission part can only adopt a single-mode fiber core due to lower signal light power, that is, only the energy transmission part adopts a few-mode-single-mode mixed transmission mode, so that the cost of the whole system is reduced on the basis of ensuring energy and signal transmission capacity. As an example, the optical fiber in the optical cable for signal transmission is a multi-core optical fiber, the multi-core optical fiber includes multiple fiber cores, one of the multiple fiber cores is a single-mode fiber core, the others are few modes, the signal transmission portion is a single-mode fiber core, and the energy transmission portion is a fiber core other than the single-mode fiber core serving as the signal transmission portion.

In another embodiment of the present invention, the optical fibers in the optical cable include a multi-core fiber and a single-core fiber, the multi-core fiber adopts a few-mode fiber at an initial end, and a single-mode fiber at a tail end, and the single-core fiber is a single-mode fiber; the multi-core optical fiber is used as the energy transmission part, and the single-core optical fiber is used as the signal transmission part.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the optical fiber in the optical cable includes a plurality of single-core optical fibers, and the plurality of single-core optical fibers include a single-mode optical fiber and a few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber, wherein the few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber serves as the energy transmission section, and the single-mode optical fiber serves as the signal transmission section.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the optical fiber in the optical cable includes a plurality of single-core optical fibers, and each of the plurality of single-core optical fibers is a few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber, wherein a part of the few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber is used as an energy transmission part, and a part of the few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber is used as a signal transmission part.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the optical fiber in the optical cable includes a plurality of single-core optical fibers, and each of the plurality of single-core optical fibers is a few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber, wherein a part of the few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber is used as an energy transmission part, and a part of the few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber is used as a signal transmission part.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the energy transmission portion and the signal transmission portion may share one optical fiber for transmitting the energy light and the signal light, where the optical fiber in the optical cable may be a multi-core fiber or a single-core fiber, the multi-core fiber or the single-core fiber is a few-mode-single-mode hybrid fiber, the energy light and the signal light are both high-power lasers, the energy light and the signal light respectively utilize different wavelength bands, the energy light and the signal light may be coupled to the energy communication fiber link by using the first wavelength division multiplexing unit, and the energy light and the signal light may be decoupled by using the second wavelength division multiplexing unit at an output end of the energy communication fiber link for wavelength division multiplexing, so as to separate the energy light and the signal light. As shown in fig. 1, energy light and signal light of different wavebands can be multiplexed by a wavelength division multiplexer 3 at the initial end of the optical fiber and then input to the few-mode optical fiber in the at least mode-single mode hybrid optical fiber 4, and the energy light and the signal light of different wavebands can be separated by the wavelength division multiplexer 3 at the output end of the single mode optical fiber and are respectively provided to a photoelectric energy management unit 5 and a signal extraction unit 6 for energy supply and communication.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the pump laser source 1 is a high-power semiconductor laser with a broadened wavelength, and the laser wavelength emitted by the laser is continuously adjustable, so that the laser can transmit large energy without damaging the optical fiber due to too high energy density, and the loss is low, and when transmitting an energy optical signal, a broad spectrum light between 1530nm and 1580nm is preferably used, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The energy source part generating the energy light can pass through the limited light source line width, so that the optical power coupled into the optical fiber can be further improved. In the optical coupling part of the energy light and the signal light, the bandwidth of each channel in the coupler is +/-15 nm, and the maximum power is 5W. In the optical fiber transmission part, a few-mode-single-mode hybrid link is adopted, so that the transmission loss can be reduced, and the nonlinear effect can be better inhibited. The photoelectric conversion and energy management unit has the functions of energy storage and output, and also has the advantages of small quality, good stability, adjustable output energy and the like.
In the example shown in fig. 1, in the energy-shared transmission system based on the few-mode optical fiber newly proposed by the present invention, high-power laser is coupled into a novel few-mode-single-mode hybrid optical fiber link for transmission as energy light and signal light in a wavelength division multiplexing manner, the wavelength division multiplexing decoupling is performed at an output end of the link, the energy light and the signal light are separated, wherein the energy light is connected to a dedicated photoelectric energy management unit, and the signal light is connected to a signal extraction unit.
In an example of the present invention, the photoelectric energy management unit 5 is a specially-made photoelectric conversion chip for 1550nm wavelength, each chip is composed of a plurality of pn junctions with indium gallium arsenic bases connected in series, and different chips can be connected in a series-parallel hybrid manner, so that the photoelectric energy management unit can achieve at least 30% of photoelectric conversion efficiency. The converted electrical energy is available to the load. The photoelectric conversion chip can adopt an optical fiber beam combiner to couple light energy in the energy transmission part to supply to a photocell, the light energy in the photocell is converted into electric energy in a photoelectric mode to complete photoelectric conversion, the photocell converts the light energy into the electric energy and then stores the electric energy in a high-energy-density battery to be used by loads such as a wireless base station, and the high-energy-density battery can also supply the electric energy to other loads such as lighting equipment and sound production equipment. The signal extraction unit 6 is configured to extract a signal 6, and the extracted signal is further subjected to physical layer filtering and non-physical layer processing to reduce the error rate of the signal, and finally extract a correct transmission signal 7. The signal extraction unit 6 may extract the control signal and the data signal.

The conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic energy management unit is greater than 30%. The system improves the transmission capacity of the system to a large extent and well controls the cost increase.
In the embodiment of the invention, the length ratio of the few-mode fiber to the single-mode fiber in the few-mode-single-mode hybrid fiber can be reasonably adjusted according to factors such as the whole transmission distance, the laser power and the like. Since the threshold of the stimulated brillouin scattering of the single-mode fiber is related to factors such as the fiber length and the mode field area, in an embodiment of the present invention, the length of the single-mode fiber may be controlled based on an arrangement scenario of the actual fiber so that the threshold of the stimulated brillouin scattering meets a predetermined threshold condition, and then the length of the few-mode portion may be determined based on the total fiber length and the length of the single-mode portion.
