But the highest resolution that can be provided now is 2 meters.
  • the splitter has a large split ratio, then the Rayleigh reflected signal of the branched fiber will have a large loss when it passes through the splitter. When it reaches the OTDR detector, the signal is already submerged in the noise.

Description

无源光网络光纤故障的检测***和方法
技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域光网络***, 尤其涉及一种检测无源光网络光纤故 障的***和方法。 背景技术
网络技术的快速发展和网络应用的普及化, 如网络通讯和网络购物, 以 及网络娱乐等已经成为现代人生活的一部分, 这样现有的接入网络铜线(有 线) ***已远远满足不了这种高速和宽带的需求, 而无源光网络是宽带和高 速、 环保和节能的宽带接入技术, 是取代现有的接入网络的最佳候选者, 其 正在被绝大多数运营商所接受并被部署, 用以满足日益增长的通信用户以及 更快速和更好的服务需求。
无源光网络( Passive Optical Network, 简称 PON )是一种点对多点的光 简称 OLT ) 、 光网络单元( Optical Network Unit, 简称 ONU ) 以及光分配网 络( Optical Distribution Network, 简称 ODN )。通常是由一个光线路终端 OLT 通过主干光纤和光分配网络 ODN的光功率分离器(简称分光器)连接多个分 支光纤及相应的光网络单元 ONU构成的点到多点结构。
在大量无源光网络的安置和部署后, 需要考虑该网络的运行和维护, 特 别是光纤线路的检测和故障的定位。 为了降低运行和维修成本, 运营商希望 在 OLT处用一个光程检测设备 (例如, 光时域反射仪 ( Optical Time Domain Reflectometer, OTDR )来检测整个无源光网络的主干和分支光纤, 如果一个 分支光纤出现故障, 希望在不影响其它分支光纤的业务的情况下, 能迅速发 现故障和对故障进行定位以及维修。
在局方 OLT处用一个 OTDR来检测这种点到多点网络时,主干光纤的信 号一般都不会有问题, 但分支光纤的信号都将会遇到以下两个问题。 一、 如果部分分支光纤到分光器的距离大致相等时, OTDR不能分辨到 底是哪个分支光纤的信号, 除非使用高分辨率的 OTDR。 但现在所能提供的 最高分辨率为 2米。
二、 如果分光器的分光比例很大, 这时分支光纤的瑞利反射信号经过分 光器时将有很大的损耗, 等它到达 OTDR的探测器时, 信号已经淹没在噪声 中了。
例如: 对于 1:32分光比的 10公里 ODN, 分光器的损耗是 3*5+3=18 dB, 而 10公里光纤损耗是 0.40*10 = 4.0 dB。 一般 OTDR设备的最大动态范围是 40 dB 左右。 如光程检测的信号经过分光器到达分支光纤的末端然后全反射 (即不计反射损耗)经过分光器到达 OTDR仪。 如果不计其它损耗(如连接 损耗等) , 其总光程损耗将达到 2*18+2*4.0 = 44 dB。 这已经超出 OTDR设 备的工作动态范围, 因此分支光纤的信号已淹没在噪声中。 这说明传统用在 局方的 OTDR设备是不能测量大分光比的 ODN的分支光纤的故障。 这种现 象比较普及, 在实际铺设的 PON 网络中由于种种原因甚至对很小分光比的 PON, 用普通的 OTDR仪器也不能看到分支光纤的反射信号。
现有的补救办法是在所有的 ONU前加一个光滤波器,该滤波器透射所有 的小于 1625nm的光, 但反射 1625nm以上的 OTDR的光, 见图 2所示。 釆用 光滤波器后, 端口反射的光可以增加 6 dB。 配上高分辨 OTDR设备, 这样可 以根据有没有反射光来确定分支光纤是否有故障, 但是还是不能确定分支光 纤故障发生的确切位置。 如果有部分分支光纤长度基本相等, 反射的光其本 重叠, 即使是高分辨 OTDR设备也不能分辨其中的区别。 更糟糕的是对于大 分光比的 ODN (如: 1:128分光比以上) , 滤波器带来的增益有可能还远远 不够分光器的损耗, 因此在局方的 OTDR设备将有可能收不到来自分支光纤 的任何信息。 发明内容

图 8为本发明分支光纤选择器实施例二的结构示意图; 本发明的较佳实施方式
参见图 3 , 本发明实施例的检测无源光网络光纤故障的***包括: 可发 监控指令的 OTDR设备、 波分复用耦合器、 波长选择耦合器、 分支光纤选择 器以及一个以上与分光器相连的波长选择路由器。 其中, 波分复用耦合器与 OTDR设备以及光线路终端 OLT相连,通过主干光纤与波长选择耦合器相连; 波长选择耦合器与分光器以及分支光纤选择器相连; 分支光纤选择器与每个 波长选择路由器相连; 每个波长选择路由器分别通过相应的分支光纤与光网 络单元相连。 分光器与每个波长选择路由器相连。
可发监控指令的 OTDR设备, 用于向波分复用耦合器发射针对某个相应 分支光纤进行检测的指令(例如, 发射针对光开关的相关指令) , 以及随后 发出光程检测的信号; 并根据分析收到的所述光程检测信号对应的反射信号 是否异常来确定主干光纤或相应分支光纤是否存在故障。
这里简单叙述一下指令信号与光程检测信号的区别, 光程检测的信号是 一个单脉冲的光信号, 而指令信号是由 8个光脉冲组成的一个字节八个比特 的信号, 因此光电接收器很容易把它们区分开来; 同时 OTDR本身清楚什么 时候发指令信号, 什么时候发光程检测信号, 其只分析收到所述光程检测的 反射信号, 对其是否异常来确定主干光纤和相应分支光纤是否存在故障。
这里, 如果反射信号是菲涅尔反射信号或者瑞利反射信号有突变, 可以 确定主干光纤或相应分支光纤存在故障, 如果是连续瑞利反射信号, 可以确 定主干光纤或相应分支光纤没有出现故障。
波分复用耦合器, 用于将收到所有的 OTDR信号和光线路终端的下行信 号导入到主干光纤上, 以及将主干光纤上分离出来的光程检测反射信号传到 OTDR设备上, 并将分离出的上行信号传给光线路终端 OLT。
波长选择耦合器, 用于从主干光纤的下行光中分离出 OTDR信号, 并将 其传给分支光纤选择器, 其余的下行光传给分光器; 以及将收到的来自分支 光纤选择器的光程检测的反射信号导回到主干光纤上, 同时将通过分光器的 上行信号传送到主干光纤上。
分支光纤选择器, 用于根据 OTDR信号中的指令接通与其相连的波长选 择路由器, 并将来自波长选择耦合器的光程检测信号通过光开关连通的光路 传送到相应的波长选择路由器上, 以及把来自波长选择路由器的分支光纤的 光程检测反射信号送到波长选择耦合器;
分支光纤选择器可以包括无源导光模块、光接收器和给光开关控制芯片 , 具体地, 分支光纤选择器用于将来自波长选择耦合器的 OTDR信号通过无源 导光模块, 分一部分的光到监控的光接收器(PD )上, PD将接收到的光信 号变为电信号传给光开关控制芯片 (Chip ) , 光开关控制芯片将根据所收到 的信号进行判断, 如果是监控指令信号, 将根据要求对光开关发出相关的指 令, 光开关接受相关指令执行相关动作, 如: 光开关连接波长选择耦合器与 相关的波长选择路由器之间的通路; 如果不是监控指令信号, 即光程检测信 号, 那控制器将无作为, 但光程检测信号将通过光开关连通的光路, 到达相 应的波长选择路由器, 然后进入分支光纤, 而光程检测反射信号也将经沿该 光路返回主干光纤。
波长选择路由器, 用于将来自分光器的下行信号传给所有的分支光纤; 以及将来自分支光纤选择器的光程检测信号传给相应的分支光纤; 然后从分 支光纤的上行信号中分离出光程检测反射信号传到分支光纤选择器, 以及将 其余分离出的上行信号传给分光器。
其中, 所述波分复用耦合器位于局方 OLT处, 目的在于不影响正常业务 时, 将 OTDR信号导入和导出。 参见图 4所示, 波分复用耦合器可以由一个 薄膜滤波器组成, 或也可以由宽带滤波器组成。 该薄膜滤波器对 1625nm ( OTDR的波长的范围为 1625nm至 1675nm,是符合国际电讯联盟 ITU-T L.66 的标准) 以上的光均反射, 如 R端口 [允许 1625nm以上 ( OTDR波长) 的光 信号输入或输出] , 但对小于 1625nm (非 OTDR波长 ) 的光均透射, 如 P端 口 (允许小于 1625nm的光信号输入或输出 )。 其的连接如下, P端口与 OLT 相连, C端口与主干光纤相连, R端口与 OTDR的设备相连。 该薄膜滤波器 用于将 OTDR设备输出的 OTDR信号导入到主干光纤上,并将 OTDR反射信 号传到 OTDR设备, 同时保持 OLT与 ONU的正常上下行通讯往来。 在本发明实施例中, 在分光器的入口处可以设置一个波长选择耦合器, 参见图 5所示, 所述波长选择耦合器可以由一个薄膜滤波器(TFF )组成, 或 也可以由宽带滤波器组成。 该薄膜滤波器对 1625nm (或 OTDR的波长)以上 的光均反射, 如 R端口, 但对小于 1625nm (非 OTDR波长) 的光均透射, 如 P端口。 其连接如下, P端口与分光器相连, C端口与主干光纤相连, R 端口与分支光纤选择器相连。 该薄膜滤波器用于将 OTDR信号导入到分支光 纤选择器上,并将分支光纤的 OTDR反射信号导回主干光纤上,同时保持 OLT 与 ONU的正常上下行通讯往来。
在光分配网络 ODN的分光器旁有一个分支光纤选择器,分支光纤选择器 是个有源器件。 参见图 7或图 8所示, 分支光纤选择器可是由三部分组成。
第一部分是无源导光模块, 如图 7所示, 由一个四接口的光环行器及一 个分光器组成: 四接口的光环行器有四个接口, 其中接口 1是输入接口, 即 光只进不出, 从接口 1进来的光, 只能从接口 2输出; 接口 2是进出接口, 从接口 2进来的光, 只能从接口 3输出; 接口 3是进出接口, 从接口 3进来 的光, 只能从接口 4输出; 接口 4是输出接口, 即光只出不进, 只有接口 3 的光才能从接口 4输出; 分光器是一个光功率分配器, 即 Splitter, 其将光功 率按一定比例从不同的接口输出, 是一个双向器件。 在图 7中使用的分光器 有三个接口, 其 C接口为通用口, 接口 1为第一分光接口, 从 C接口分出的 光大部分(例如 90% )从接口 1输出; 接口 2为第二分光接口, 从 C接口分 出的光小部分(例如 10% )从接口 1输出, 分光的比例可由用户才艮据实际情 况进行调整; 其连接如图 7所示, 光环行器的接口 3与波长选择耦合器相连, 其接口 2与光开关的通用接口连接, 而接口 1与分光器的第一接口相连, 接 口 4与分光器的通用接口相连, 分光器的第二接口与光开关控制器的光接收 器相连。
图 8是无源导光模块另一实施例, 其是由两个三接口的光环行器来代替 四接口的光环行器, 三接口的光环行器的接口 1是输入接口, 光只进不出; 三接口的光环行器的接口 2是进出接口, 从接口 1进的光从接口 2出, 以及 从接口 2进的光从接口 3出; 三接口的光环行器的接口 3是输出接口, 光只 出不进; 有了这个特性, 第一光环行器的接口 3与第二光环行器的接口 1相 连后组成了相当于四接口的光环行器, 其第二光环行器的接口 3相当于四接 口光环行器的接口 4; 其第二光环行器的接口 2相当于四接口光环行器的接 口 3; 其第一光环行器的接口 2相当于四接口光环行器的接口 2; 其第一光环 行器的接口 1相当于四接口光环行器的接口 1 ; 其他的连接及功能与图 7— 致。
第二部分是光开关控制器, 由两个部分组成, 一个是光电转换器 (PD),其 主要作用是接受 OLT处的 OTDR对光开关的指令,然后把接受到的光信号转 为电信号传给光开关控制芯片 (即控制器) , 控制器根据指令的要求对光开 关进行相关操作。
更进一步的是, 指令***可分为四个工作状态:
状态一: 开启光开关的电源, 主要原因是为了节约能源, 平时光开关处 于无电源关闭状态, 控制器接到指令后, 开启光开关电源, 使光开关处于预 热和接受命令的状态;
状态二: 接通某个分支光纤的光路, 控制器根据指令要求光开关接通某 个支路, 光开关根据要求进行操作;
状态三: 断开连接的光路, 控制器根据指令要求光开关断开某个支路, 光开关根据要求进行操作;
状态四: 关闭光开关的电源, 其主要原因是为了节约能源, 控制器接到 指令后, 关闭光开关电源, 使整个分支光纤选择器处于待电的状态, 即只有 光开关控制器有少量供电。
在整个指令操作过程中, 状态二和状态三可重复, 因为在测试过程中, 可能不止测试一个分支光纤, 可能需要检测几个, 或全部。 操作过程可总结 为如下步骤, 状态一到状态二到状态三到状态二到状态三 ... ...直到状态四。
其连接如图 7所示, 光接收器与分光器的第二接口相连, 其电的部分通 过电线与光开关控制芯片相连, 光开关控制芯片与光开关的电的部分相连, 以开启或关闭光开关的电源以及根据指令指挥光开关进行相关连接。
第三部分是 ΙχΝ的光开关, 其中 N是由分支光纤的数目确定, 其主要作 用是为波长选择耦合器与选定的波长选择路由器搭一个光通路, 使得光程检 测信号通过该通道到达分支光纤, 以及分支光纤的光程检测反射信号也能通 过该通路返回主干光纤; 其线路连接如图 7或图 8所示, 光开关的通用口与 光环行器的接口 2相连, 其 1到 N个分支口与相应的分支光纤的波长选择路 由器相连, 一旦连接成功, 分支光纤被光开关进行了标识, 这表明选择不同 的分支口,相应地选择了不同的分支光纤。这些标识信息将被 OLT,或 OTDR 所储存, 有了这些信息后, 如要检测某个分支光纤, 只要指令光开关联通与 分支光纤相应的分支口与通用口之间的光路即可。 光开关电的部分与光开关 控制器相连, 其工作状态将由光开关控制器决定。
在分光器的每一个分支光纤前连一个波长选择路由器, 该分光器可以是 等功率的分光器件, 参见图 6所示, 波长选择路由器可以由一个薄膜滤波器 ( TFF )组成。该薄膜滤波器对 1625nm ( OTDR的波长)以上的光均反射 (如 R端口) , 但对 1625匪以下 (非 OTDR波长) 的光均透射(如 P端口) 。 其连接如下, P端口与分光器相连, C端口与分支光纤相连, R端口与分支光 纤选择器相连。 该薄膜滤波器用于将来自分支光纤选择器上的光程检测信号 导入到分支光纤上, 并将分支光纤的光程检测反射信号导回分支光纤选择器 上, 只有被选定的波长选择路由器才能对以上光程检测信号以及光程检测反 射信号进行导光, 同时保持 OLT与 ONU的正常上下行通讯往来, 不被选定 的波长选择路由器, 只有 OLT与 ONU的正常上下行通讯往来。
本发明实施例通过以上一系列辅助光功能模块组成的光程检测***,可 以在局方用一个可发指令的 OTDR设备, 来智能地快速地检测和定位主干光 纤和任何一支分支光纤的故障。 而且通过 l x N 的光开关来选择与其相关的 分支光纤, 这样就避免了长度相等分支光纤的信号重叠, 不能区分。 同时让 分支光纤的光程检测信号和光程检测反射信号均绕过分光器回到主干光纤, 这样就避免了分光器对光程检测信号的衰减, 保证了 OTDR仪能够接收到分 支光纤的光程检测反射信号。 其中, OTDR的波长一般只要避开上下行业务 波长即可, 根据 ITU-T L.66通常该波长选择在 1625nm到 1675nm之间 , 而 非 OTDR波长一般指上下行业务波长, 也包括视频信号波长。
通过本发明实施例的***, 能非常有效地帮助运营商快速发现故障的位 置, 这将大大缩短维修的时间, 降低维护成本。 特别是某个分支光纤发生故 障时, 运营商可以在不影响其他分支光纤的正常业务时, 对该支光纤进行快 速地检测和故障定位, 以及进行维修。 这些都将大大降低运营商的运行和维 护成本。
以下结合附图和优选实施例对本发明的技术方案进行详细地阐述。 以下 例举的实施例仅仅用于说明和解释本发明, 而不构成对本发明技术方案的限 制。
为了实现智能地检测无源光网络的光纤***, 首先对无源光网络做一些 改造, 增加一些无源的光功能模块。 按照图 3的要求, 在 OLT处增加了一个 波分复用耦合器, 其主要功能是把 OTDR设备连接在主干光纤上, 使得光程 检测信号能进入无源光网络***, 相应的反射信号能通过网络传到 OTDR的 探测器上。
在分光器前***波长选择耦合器, 它的主要功能是把 OTDR的信号从主 干光纤中分离出来传给分支光纤选择器, 以及把分支光纤的光程检测反射信 号传回主干光纤, 同时保证上下行信号的正常通讯。
在分光器后每个分支光纤前***波长选择路由器, 其主要功能是把来自 分支光纤选择器上的光程检测信号导入到分支光纤上, 以及把分支光纤的光 程检测反射信号从上行信号中分离出来传到分支光纤选择器上, 同时保证上 下行通讯正常运行。
在分光器旁放上分支光纤选择器, 见图 7或图 8所示, 其一端与波长选 择耦合器相连, 另一端与每个波长选择路由器相连, 主要功能是根据 OTDR 的指令连通光开关的通用口和分支口。
当所有这些模块按图 3连接以后, OTDR的设备就能智能地测试整个无 源光网络***。 下面对整个光程检测流程进行说明。 包括下面步骤:
S10、 OTDR设备发出针对某个分支光纤进行检测的指令, 分支光纤选择 器接收到所述指令后, 连通所述指令指定的分支光纤的光通路;
当无源光网络需要检测时, 首先在局方把 OTDR的设备连在波分复用耦 合器上, 然后针对一个所需测量分支光纤, 由 OTDR仪用 OTDR波长的光向 分支光纤选择器发出开启光开关的指令, 然后等几秒后, 再发出接通所需测 量分支光纤的指令。
S20、 OTDR设备发出光程检测信号后,根据接收到的所述光程检测信号 对应的反射信号, 分析所述反射信号是否异常来确定相应分支光纤是否存在 故障。
当光开关执行指令后, OTDR仪就可发出光程检测信号, 通过与 OTDR 仪连接的波分复用耦合器的 R接口被耦合进主干光纤进行传输, 其反射信号 将原路返回到 OTDR仪上, 如果主干光纤有任何故障, 其反常信号将很快被 OTDR仪发现, 并且能迅速定位。 如主干光纤没有问题, 检测信号将一直传 输到波长选择耦合器的 C接口, 然后被分离出来从 R接口输出到分支光纤选 择器的环行器的接口。
如图 7所示的分支光纤选择器, 若该光环行器是四接口光环行器, 则该 接口是光环行器的接口 3 ,然后出光环行器的接口 4,进入分光器的通用接口, 其小部分的光从分光器的第二接口出, 进入光开关控制器的光接收器, 光开 关控制芯片判断这是光程检测信号后, 然后无作为; 而其大部分的光从分光 器的第一接口出, 进入光环行器的接口 1 , 从光环行器的接口 2出; 到达 ΙχΝ 光开关的通用口, 从与光开关连通的分支口出, 进入与光开关相连的波长选 择路由器的 R接口, 接着从波长选择路由器的 C接口输出到与其相连的分支 光纤, 经传输到达与其相连的 ONU。
分支光纤的光程检测反射信号原路返回, 通过波长选择路由器的 R接口 到 C接口, 到达分支光纤选择器的光开关的分支口, 从光开关的通用口出, 如图 7所示, 进入光环行器的接口 2, 从光环行器的接口 3 出之后进入与光 环行器相连的波长选择耦合器的 R接口, 再从 C接口出, 进入主干光纤, 经 主干光纤的传输到达波分复用耦合器的 C接口, 然后被分离从其 R接口输出 返回到 OTDR仪上,所以每次 OTDR仪上将展示一个主干光纤加一个分支光 纤的反射信号。
分支光纤选择器也可以由图 8的两个三接口的光环行器组成, 其中唯一 的区别是用两个三接口的环行器来代替四接口的环行器, 即第二光环行器的 接口 2相当于四接口环行器的接口 3; 第一光环行器的接口 2相当于四接口 环行器的接口 2; 第二光环行器的接口 3相当于四接口环行器的接口 4; 第一 光环行器的接口 1相当于四接口环行器的接口 1 ; 同时第一光环行器的接口 3 与第二光环行器的接口 1相连, 其他的连接与图 7相同。 光在这里传输与前 面的描述一致, 将不在一一重复。
如果要检测其它的分支光纤, 则重复以上的步骤, 即由 OTDR仪发出断 开该通路的指令, 然后等几秒后发出连接新的分支光纤的指令, 然后发出新 的光程检测信号, OTDR仪将根据收到的光程检测反射信号是否异常即可判 断其是否有故障以及对故障进行定位。 重复以上的步骤一直到测量结束。
进一步地, S30、 检测结束后, OTDR设备发出检测结束指令, 分支光纤 选择器接收到所述指令后, 断开该指令指定的光通路, 以及关闭光开关电源。
当检测结束后, OTDR的设备用 OTDR波长的光向分支光纤选择器发出 断开光通路的指令, 然后等几秒后, 再发出关闭光开关电源的指令, 使得分 支光纤选择器回复到原来的待电的状态。
现在来看在检测过程中 OLT与 ONU之间的通讯, 见图 3。 首先是下行 光链路, OLT发出下行的光, 经过波分复用耦合器的透射, 见图 4, 穿过主 干光纤到达波长选择耦合器, 见图 5, 然后透过滤波器到达分光器, 经过分 光器的分光到达每个波长选择路由器, 见图 6, 穿过波长选择路由器的滤波 片到达每个分支光纤, 然后通过分支光纤到达相应的 ONU。
上行光链路是由 ONU发出的上行光, 穿过分支光纤到达波长选择路由 器, 见图 6, 首先透过波长选择路由器的滤波片到达分光器, 穿过分光器到 达波长选择耦合器, 见图 5 , 透过波长选择耦合器到达主干光纤, 穿过主干 光纤到达波分复用耦合器, 见图 4, 透过波分复用耦合器到达 OLT处。 在整 个传输过程中 OTDR的信号以及反射信号没有对下行和上行光链路有任何干 扰。
在整个光程检测从开始到关闭的过程中, 无源光网络的 OLT与 ONU之 间的通讯始终保持畅通, 也就是它们的业务没有中断。 如果有一个分支光纤 发生故障, 在局方用 OTDR进行检测和故障定位, 以及后继的修复及恢复正 常工作状态过程中, 其他分支光纤的用户将不会有所感知。 这将大大降低了 运营商的维修的成本。
发明的精神和范围。 这样, 倘若本发明的这些修改和变型属于本发明权利要 求及其等同技术的范围之内, 则本发明也意图包含这些改动和变型在内。
工业实用性 本发明实施例提供一种检测无源光网络光纤故障的***及方法, 可以监 视、 检测以及定位无源光网络的主干和所有的分支光纤的故障, 而且通过选 择 OTDR监控信号来选择与其对应的分支光纤进行检测, 这样就避免了长度 相等分支光纤的信号重叠, 不能区分的问题。 同时让 OTDR的探测信号和反 射信号均绕过分光器回到主干光纤,这样分光器的损耗与光程检测信号无关, 保证了 OTDR仪对分支光纤的检测能力和精度。
