Description

Optical fiber link dispersion measurement system and method based on time division multiplexing

Background
The high-precision optical fiber time frequency transmission technology has the advantages of safety, reliability, stability and the like, and becomes a key supporting technology in the fields of aerospace, high-speed communication, geodetic surveying, precision metering and the like.
In practical applications of fiber time frequency transfer, dispersion is one of the losses of fiber transmission. The optical fiber dispersion is mainly caused by the fact that signals transmitted by the optical fiber dispersion are carried by different frequency components and different mode components, and the transmission speeds of the different frequency components and the different mode components are different, so that the signals are distorted. The dispersion not only causes interference to the transmission code, so that the error rate performance is deteriorated, the information transmission is seriously influenced, but also causes the broadening of the optical pulse, and the transmission capacity of the optical fiber is limited. With the increasing manufacturing process of optical fiber, the transmission distance of optical communication system is no longer limited by the loss of optical fiber, and the dispersion becomes the main limiting factor.
In the process of performing dispersion compensation, accurate dispersion measurement needs to be performed first. The cost is extremely high due to the purchase of expensive import equipment, and the method is not consistent with the scenes of wide application of optical fiber time transmission and is difficult to popularize and apply. Therefore, it is highly desirable to develop a reliable and low-cost method for measuring the dispersion of an optical fiber.

Referring to fig. 6, the present invention further provides a method for measuring chromatic dispersion of an optical fiber link based on time division multiplexing, which is applied to the system 100 for measuring chromatic dispersion of an optical fiber link based on time division multiplexing;
the method comprises the following steps:
s1, receiving the first optical signal, and modulating the first optical signal by using a third signal with a preset frequency to obtain a first sub-signal;
s2, after the first sub-signal is transmitted by using the optical fiber link, demodulating the first sub-signal;
s3, determining a first phase difference according to the third signal and the demodulated first sub-signal;
s4, receiving the second optical signal, and modulating the second optical signal by using a third signal with a preset frequency to obtain a second sub-signal;
s5, after the second sub-signal is transmitted by using the optical fiber link, demodulating the second sub-signal;
s6, determining a second phase difference according to the third signal and the demodulated second sub-signal;
and S7, determining the dispersion coefficient according to the wavelength of the first optical signal, the wavelength of the second optical signal, the first phase difference, the second phase difference and the length of the optical fiber link.
Specifically, first, a first optical signal is received, a third signal with a preset frequency is used for modulating the first optical signal to obtain a first sub-signal, the signal is transmitted and demodulated by using an optical fiber link, and a first phase difference can be determined according to the third signal and the demodulated first sub-signal. It should be understood that the second phase difference can be determined after the second optical signal is processed in the same way as the first optical signal, and thus the processing of the second optical signal will not be described herein.
It should be noted that the frequency of the demodulated first sub-signal and the frequency of the demodulated second sub-signal are both equal to the preset frequency of the third signal.
In addition, in the optical fiber link dispersion measurement method, the mechanical optical switch can be used for switching the first optical signal and the second optical signal, and the rear-end link is kept unchanged through the time division multiplexing technology, so that the consistency of the whole link is ensured, other errors are prevented from being introduced in the processing process of the first optical signal and the second optical signal, and the accuracy of the dispersion measurement result is ensured.
In some other embodiments of the present invention, the switching between the first optical signal and the second optical signal may also be achieved by a programmable switch. Specifically, after determining the first phase difference according to the third signal and the demodulated first sub-signal in step S3, the programmable switch receives the instruction to switch the channel after the processing of the first optical signal is finished, transmits the second optical signal generated by the second signal generating module 20 to the modulating module 30, and starts to process the second optical signal.
Of course, the present invention is not limited to the specific form of the switch module 70, as long as the two optical signals can be switched.
Further, in step S7, the step of determining the dispersion coefficient based on the wavelength of the first optical signal, the wavelength of the second optical signal, the first phase difference, the second phase difference, and the length of the optical fiber link includes:
s71, determining the difference value of the first phase difference and the second phase difference to obtain a first difference value;
s72, determining the difference between the wavelength of the first optical signal and the wavelength of the second optical signal to obtain a second difference value;
s73, determining a dispersion measurement value according to the first difference value and the second difference value;
and S74, determining the dispersion coefficient according to the dispersion measured value and the length of the optical fiber link.
It should be understood that the dispersion of an optical fiber link is generally expressed in terms of the dispersion coefficient D, which is defined as the average population experiment over a unit wavelength interval over a unit length of the optical fiber link, with the dispersion coefficient in units of ps/(nm · km).
Alternatively, the dispersion coefficient is determined according to the following formula:
Figure BDA0003270169220000101
wherein L represents the length of the optical fiber link, DLRepresents a dispersion measurement, D represents a dispersion coefficient, wherein,
Figure BDA0003270169220000102
Figure BDA0003270169220000103
representing a first difference and a lambda representing a second difference.
Optionally, the optical fiber link has a length of 10km to 250 km. It should be noted that the length of the optical fiber link is closely related to the demodulation module, and therefore the length of the optical fiber link cannot be too large, otherwise the demodulation module cannot detect the optical signal, but the avalanche type photodetector is adopted in this embodiment, compared with a common photodetector, the avalanche type photodetector has higher detection sensitivity for the optical signal, and has a wider detection range, and therefore the optical signal can still be detected even if the optical fiber link is longer; on the other hand, the length of the optical fiber link cannot be too short, otherwise the dispersion phenomenon is not obvious. Based on the reasons, the invention sets the length of the optical fiber link to be 10 km-250 km, ensures that the avalanche photodetector can detect the optical signal and improves the accuracy of the dispersion measurement result.
Therefore, the dispersion coefficient can be determined according to the actual length of the optical fiber link by the optical fiber link dispersion measurement method based on time division multiplexing, and the subsequent support for dispersion compensation is facilitated.
The beneficial effects of the invention are that:
the invention provides a system and a method for measuring optical fiber link dispersion based on time division multiplexing, wherein a first optical signal and a second optical signal are transmitted to a modulation module in a time-sharing mode, the first optical signal and the second optical signal are modulated by using a third signal with preset frequency, then the first optical signal and the second optical signal are demodulated after passing through an optical fiber link, and the demodulated first sub-signal and the demodulated second sub-signal are subjected to frequency mixing and phase discrimination with the preset frequency to obtain two paths of phase differences.
