第一方面,本申请提供了一种光网络节点,光网络节点包括目标光放大组件和分光器件。分光器件分别与目标光放大组件的输入端和输出端耦合,使得目标光放大组件的输出端与输入端之间形成回路,分光器件用于将来自目标光放大组件的输出端的光信号分成多路光信号并输出,其中一路光信号通过回路传输到目标光放大组件。光网络节点通过目标光放大组件在回路中生成控制光信号,控制光信号的功率基于目标光放大组件接收的业务光信号的功率确定。In a first aspect, this application provides an optical network node. The optical network node includes a target optical amplification component and an optical splitting device. The optical splitting device is coupled to the input end and the output end of the target optical amplification component respectively, so that a loop is formed between the output end and the input end of the target optical amplification component. The optical splitting device is used to divide the optical signal from the output end of the target optical amplification component into multiple channels. The optical signal is output and one of the optical signals is transmitted to the target optical amplification component through the loop. The optical network node generates a control optical signal in the loop through the target optical amplification component, and the power of the control optical signal is determined based on the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component.
在该光网络节点中,目标光放大组件的输入端和输出端之间形成有回路,光网络节点能够通过目标光放大组件在回路中生成控制光信号。在光网络节点出现增波或掉波时,该控制光信号能够对输入目标光放大组件的光信号的功率进行调节,能够解决因受激拉曼散射效应带来的功率转移等导致剩余波信号性能波动问题,以及目标光放大组件的瞬态过冲问题,减轻增波或掉波对光网络***的性能的影响。In the optical network node, a loop is formed between the input end and the output end of the target optical amplification component, and the optical network node can generate a control optical signal in the loop through the target optical amplification component. When an optical network node has a wave increase or drop, the control optical signal can adjust the power of the optical signal input to the target optical amplification component, and can solve the problem of residual wave signals caused by power transfer caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect. The performance fluctuation problem and the transient overshoot problem of the target optical amplification component reduce the impact of wave addition or wave loss on the performance of the optical network system.

In this way, when the service optical signal increases or drops, the pump energy can be transferred to the control optical signals of multiple wavelengths in a relatively even manner, so that the power of the control optical signals of multiple wavelengths is basically equal. At this time, the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal have basically the same ability to compensate for power fluctuations caused by wave addition or wave drop, and can maintain the performance stability of the optical network system to a large extent.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
为使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请实施方式作进一步地详细描述。In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
为便于理解,下面先对本申请实施例中涉及的相关原理进行介绍。For ease of understanding, the relevant principles involved in the embodiments of this application are first introduced below.
受激拉曼散射(Stimulated Raman Scattering,SRS)效应表现为短波长波道传输的光信号的功率会向长波长波道传输的光信号转移。在受激拉曼散射效应的影响下,光信号的功率发生转移的大小与波道位置和同一光纤中的波道数目相关。例如,当光频谱由C波段扩展为C+L波段,受激拉曼散射效应导致的功率转移将增大约4倍。其中,C波段和C+L波段分别为不同的传输频带。图1为在受激拉曼散射效应的影响下,光信号的功率发生转移前后光信号的功率谱。在图1中,坐标轴的纵轴表示光信号的功率,坐标轴的横轴表示光信号的波长,带箭头的曲线表示功率转移方向,且为便于查看,图1中未示出所有功率转移方向。根据该图1可以看出,在功率转移前,七个波长的光信号的功率相同,在功率转移后,较小波长的光信号的功率变小,较大波长的光信号的功率变大,七个波长的光信号的功率谱的斜率由0变成正数,即功率谱出现了倾斜的情况。The Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) effect shows that the power of optical signals transmitted by short-wavelength channels will transfer to optical signals transmitted by long-wavelength channels. Under the influence of the stimulated Raman scattering effect, the magnitude of the power transfer of the optical signal is related to the channel position and the number of channels in the same optical fiber. For example, when the optical spectrum expands from the C-band to the C+L band, the power transfer caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect will increase by approximately 4 times. Among them, C-band and C+L-band are different transmission frequency bands. Figure 1 shows the power spectrum of the optical signal before and after the power of the optical signal is transferred under the influence of stimulated Raman scattering effect. In Figure 1, the vertical axis of the coordinate axis represents the power of the optical signal, the horizontal axis of the coordinate axis represents the wavelength of the optical signal, and the curve with an arrow represents the power transfer direction, and for the convenience of viewing, all power transfers are not shown in Figure 1 direction. According to Figure 1, it can be seen that before the power transfer, the power of the seven wavelength optical signals is the same. After the power transfer, the power of the smaller wavelength optical signal becomes smaller, and the power of the larger wavelength optical signal becomes larger. The slope of the power spectrum of the seven-wavelength optical signal changes from 0 to a positive number, that is, the power spectrum becomes tilted.
图2为本申请实施例提供的一种光网络***的示意图。如图2所示,光网络***通常包括多个光网络节点,相邻设置的两个光网络节点之间可以通过通信光纤传输光信号。在一种可实现方式中,光网络节点可以为可重构光分插复用器(reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer,ROADM)站点。如图2所示,光网络节点可以包括第一波长选择开关(wavelength selective switch,WSS)、第二波长选择开关和光放大器。第一波长选择开关和第二波长选择开关均能够与多个光网络节点耦合,第一波长选择开关和第二波长选择开关均用于对接收到的光信号进行波长选择。其中,在第一波长选择开关和第二波长选择开关中,由于第一波 长选择开关距离向该第一波长选择开关所属的光网络节点传输光信号的其他光网络节点较近,第一波长选择开关可视为该其他光网络节点的收端光器件,因此第一波长选择开关通常也称为收端波长选择开关。类似地,第二波长选择开关通常也称为发端波长选择开关。并且,由于光信号在传输过程中会出现信号衰减的情况,因此,相邻设置两个光网络节点之间还可以设置有光放大器(图2中未示出),以对光信号进行放大,使得传输至目的地的光信号能够满足使用需求。并且,第一波长选择开关和第二波长选择开关均可以具有多个输入端,该图2中指向第一波长选择开关和第二波长选择开关的箭头均用于指示输入端。Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of an optical network system provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2, an optical network system usually includes multiple optical network nodes, and optical signals can be transmitted between two adjacent optical network nodes through communication optical fibers. In an implementation manner, the optical network node may be a reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) site. As shown in Figure 2, the optical network node may include a first wavelength selective switch (wavelength selective switch, WSS), a second wavelength selective switch and an optical amplifier. Both the first wavelength selective switch and the second wavelength selective switch can be coupled to multiple optical network nodes, and both the first wavelength selective switch and the second wavelength selective switch are used to select the wavelength of the received optical signal. Among them, in the first wavelength selective switch and the second wavelength selective switch, due to the first wave The long selective switch is close to other optical network nodes that transmit optical signals to the optical network node to which the first wavelength selective switch belongs. The first wavelength selective switch can be regarded as the receiving optical device of the other optical network nodes, so the first wavelength Selective switches are also often called receiving end wavelength selective switches. Similarly, the second wavelength selective switch is also commonly referred to as the transmitting wavelength selective switch. Moreover, since optical signals may suffer signal attenuation during transmission, an optical amplifier (not shown in Figure 2) can also be provided between two adjacent optical network nodes to amplify the optical signal. So that the optical signal transmitted to the destination can meet the usage requirements. Furthermore, both the first wavelength selective switch and the second wavelength selective switch may have multiple input terminals, and the arrows pointing to the first wavelength selective switch and the second wavelength selective switch in FIG. 2 are used to indicate the input terminals.
在波分复用的光网络***中,业务信息通常调制在不同波道上进行传输,不同波道传输的光信号的波长不同。当业务信息通过目标波段(如C波段)的波分复用光信号传输时,由于波分复用的光信号中各个波道相互影响,若波分复用的光信号中某一波道的功率变化较大,例如某一波道出现掉波或增波,在光网络***的光放大器以及光纤的受激拉曼散射效应等作用下,会导致光信号中剩余波道的光传输性能劣化,导致光网络***的性能不稳定,影响光网络***的性能。剩余波道为光信号中除功率出现变化的波道之外的波道。增波是指:当前光网络节点传输的光信号包括的波道数目,相较于位于该光网络节点前的相邻光网络节点传输的光信号包括的波道数目增加了。类似的,掉波是指:当前光网络节点传输的光信号包括的波道数目,相较于位于该光网络节点前的相邻光网络节点传输的光信号包括的波道数目减少了。In a wavelength division multiplexing optical network system, business information is usually modulated and transmitted on different channels, and the optical signals transmitted on different channels have different wavelengths. When business information is transmitted through wavelength division multiplexed optical signals in the target band (such as C-band), due to the mutual influence of each channel in the wavelength division multiplexed optical signal, if a certain channel in the wavelength division multiplexed optical signal Large power changes, such as a wave drop or gain in a certain channel, will cause the optical transmission performance of the remaining channels in the optical signal to deteriorate under the influence of the optical amplifier of the optical network system and the stimulated Raman scattering effect of the optical fiber. , leading to unstable performance of the optical network system and affecting the performance of the optical network system. The remaining channels are the channels in the optical signal other than the channels where the power changes. Wave increase means: the number of channels included in the optical signal transmitted by the current optical network node is increased compared to the number of channels included in the optical signal transmitted by the adjacent optical network node located in front of the optical network node. Similarly, wave dropping means that the number of channels included in the optical signal transmitted by the current optical network node is reduced compared to the number of channels included in the optical signal transmitted by the adjacent optical network node located in front of the optical network node.
当业务光信号中短波长的光信号掉波时,在受激拉曼散射效应的影响下,长波长的光信号接收到的短波长的光信号转移的功率会减小,导致长波长的光信号的功率相对于未出现掉波时的功率降低,短波长的光信号的功率相对于未出现掉波时的功率增加,从而导致剩余波信号的功率发生波动。类似的,在业务光信号中长波长的光信号掉波和业务光信号出现增波时,均会导致剩余波信号的功率发生波动。并且,光信号的功率发生转移的大小与波道位置、及同一光纤中的波道数目均相关。因此,当光网络***发生出现掉波或增波时,会导致受激拉曼散射效应引起的功率转移大小发生变化,导致剩余波道传输的剩余波信号的功率发生变化。When the short-wavelength optical signal in the service optical signal drops, under the influence of the stimulated Raman scattering effect, the power transferred by the short-wavelength optical signal received by the long-wavelength optical signal will be reduced, causing the long-wavelength optical signal to The power of the signal decreases relative to the power when no wave drop occurs, and the power of the short-wavelength optical signal increases relative to the power when no wave drop occurs, causing the power of the remaining wave signal to fluctuate. Similarly, when the long-wavelength optical signal in the service optical signal drops or the service optical signal increases, the power of the remaining wave signal will fluctuate. Moreover, the magnitude of the power transfer of the optical signal is related to the channel position and the number of channels in the same optical fiber. Therefore, when a wave drops or increases in an optical network system, the magnitude of the power transfer caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect will change, resulting in a change in the power of the residual wave signal transmitted by the remaining channels.
当光网络***发生增波或掉波时,除了受激拉曼散射效应会带来剩余波信号功率的变化外,光网络***中光放大器还会出现瞬态过冲,该瞬态过冲也会导致剩余波信号在短时间内出现较大功率波动的现象。光放大器包括泵浦激光器。在光放大器的工作过程中,光放大器会检测光放大器的输入功率和输出功率,根据该输入功率和输出功率计算光放大器的实际增益值,并判断该实际增益值是否符合设置值,在实际增益值不符合设置值时,调节泵浦激光器输出的泵浦功率,以通过调节后的泵浦功率调节输出功率,使得光放大器的实际增益值符合设置值,从而进入稳定状态。但是,当光网络***发生增波或掉波时,光放大器的输入功率会发生变化,由于光放大器检测输入功率和泵浦调节的过程存在滞后,使得光放大器在保持下一个稳定状态之前,输出功率仍会出现上下冲的现象,仍会导致光网络***的性能不稳定,影响光网络***的性能。When a wave increases or drops in an optical network system, in addition to the change in residual wave signal power caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect, a transient overshoot will also occur in the optical amplifier in the optical network system. This transient overshoot will also cause This will cause the residual wave signal to have large power fluctuations in a short period of time. Optical amplifiers include pump lasers. During the operation of the optical amplifier, the optical amplifier will detect the input power and output power of the optical amplifier, calculate the actual gain value of the optical amplifier based on the input power and output power, and determine whether the actual gain value meets the set value. When the value does not meet the set value, adjust the pump power output by the pump laser to adjust the output power through the adjusted pump power so that the actual gain value of the optical amplifier meets the set value, thereby entering a stable state. However, when the optical network system increases or drops waves, the input power of the optical amplifier will change. Due to the lag in the process of detecting the input power and pumping adjustment of the optical amplifier, the output of the optical amplifier will decrease before maintaining the next stable state. The power will still surge up and down, which will still lead to unstable performance of the optical network system and affect the performance of the optical network system.
并且,随着光通信网络容量不断提升,光网络***的频谱在波段上的切换,如光网络***的频谱由C波段扩展为C+L波段,以及,在光网络***中部署自动交换光网络(automatically switched optical network,ASON)和可重构光分插复用器站点等,均会使光网络***出现增波和掉波的情况。因此,消除光网络***的增波或掉波带来的光网络***的性能波动,是当前面临的重大难题。 Moreover, as the capacity of optical communication networks continues to increase, the spectrum of optical network systems switches between bands. For example, the spectrum of optical network systems is expanded from C-band to C+L band, and automatic switching optical networks are deployed in optical network systems. (automatically switched optical network, ASON) and reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer sites, etc., will cause wave addition and wave loss in the optical network system. Therefore, eliminating the performance fluctuation of the optical network system caused by wave addition or wave loss of the optical network system is a major problem currently faced.

分光器件102分别与目标光放大组件101的输入端和输出端耦合,使得目标光放大组件101的输出端与输入端之间形成回路。也即是,该回路包括从目标光放大组件101的输出端到目标光放大组件101的输入端之间经过的通路。分光器件102用于将来自目标光放大组件101的输出端的光信号分成多路光信号并输出,其中一路光信号通过回路传输到目标光放大组件101。该多路光信号中的其他路光信号可以根据光网络节点10的应用场景确定,该其他路光信号为多路光信号中除通过回路传输到目标光放大组件101的光信号外的光信号。可选地,该其他路光信号可以包括向该光网络节点10的下一光网络节点10提供的光信号。The spectroscopic device 102 is coupled to the input end and the output end of the target light amplification component 101 respectively, so that a loop is formed between the output end and the input end of the target light amplification component 101 . That is, the loop includes a path passing from the output end of the target light amplification component 101 to the input end of the target light amplification component 101 . The optical splitting device 102 is used to divide the optical signal from the output end of the target optical amplification component 101 into multiple optical signals and output them, wherein one optical signal is transmitted to the target optical amplification component 101 through a loop. The other optical signals in the multi-channel optical signals can be determined according to the application scenario of the optical network node 10. The other optical signals are the optical signals in the multi-channel optical signals except the optical signals transmitted to the target optical amplification component 101 through the loop. . Optionally, the other optical signals may include optical signals provided to the next optical network node 10 of the optical network node 10 .
由于目标光放大组件101的输出端与输入端之间存在回路,使得光网络节点10中形成了环形腔。该环形腔能够激发生成光信号,使得光网络节点10在该环形腔的作用下,能够自发地生成光信号。该生成的光信号即为控制光信号。也即是,光网络节点10能够通过目标光放大组件101在回路中生成控制光信号。Since there is a loop between the output end and the input end of the target optical amplification component 101, a ring cavity is formed in the optical network node 10. The ring cavity can be excited to generate optical signals, so that the optical network node 10 can spontaneously generate optical signals under the action of the ring cavity. The generated optical signal is the control optical signal. That is, the optical network node 10 can generate a control optical signal in the loop through the target optical amplification component 101 .
并且,由于该回路形成在目标光放大组件101的输出端和输入端之间,则控制光信号的功率可以基于目标光放大组件101接收的业务光信号的功率确定。目标光放大组件101中的泵浦激光器能够输出泵浦激光能量,控制光信号和目标光放大组件101接收到的业务光信号共享该泵浦能量。当光网络节点10接收到的光信号未出现增波或掉波时,控制光信号和业务光信号共享泵浦能量的状态处于稳定状态。当光网络节点10接收到的光信号出现掉波时,目标光放大组件101接收到的业务光信号的功率减小,此时,业务光信号耗费的泵浦能量减少,多余的泵浦能量可以转移到控制光信号上,使得控制光信号的功率增加。例如,如图4所示,当光网络节点10接收到的光信号未出现增波或掉波时,业务光信号的波长占满通道,控制光信号的功率与各个波长的业务光信号的功率基本相等。如图5所示,光网络节点的光信号包括的波道数目相较于图4所示的波道数目减少了,即光网络节点10接收到的光信号出现了掉波,此时,控制光信号的功率大于剩余波道中业务光信号的功率。其中,该图4和图5中纵坐标表示光信号的功率,横坐标表示光信号的波长。Moreover, since the loop is formed between the output end and the input end of the target optical amplification component 101, the power of the control optical signal can be determined based on the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component 101. The pump laser in the target optical amplification component 101 can output pump laser energy, and the control optical signal and the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component 101 share the pump energy. When the optical signal received by the optical network node 10 does not increase or drop, the state in which the control optical signal and the service optical signal share pump energy is in a stable state. When the optical signal received by the optical network node 10 drops, the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component 101 is reduced. At this time, the pump energy consumed by the service optical signal is reduced, and the excess pump energy can be transferred to the control light signal, causing the power of the control light signal to increase. For example, as shown in Figure 4, when the optical signal received by the optical network node 10 does not increase or drop, the wavelength of the service optical signal occupies the channel, and the power of the control optical signal and the power of the service optical signal of each wavelength are Basically equal. As shown in Figure 5, the number of channels included in the optical signal of the optical network node is reduced compared to the number of channels shown in Figure 4, that is, the optical signal received by the optical network node 10 has dropped. At this time, the control The power of the optical signal is greater than the power of the service optical signal in the remaining channels. The ordinate in Figures 4 and 5 represents the power of the optical signal, and the abscissa represents the wavelength of the optical signal.
类似的,当光网络节点10接收到的光信号出现增波时,目标光放大组件101接收到的业务光信号的功率增加,此时,业务光信号耗费的泵浦能量增加,导致分到控制光信号的泵浦能量减少,使得控制光信号的功率减少。因此,控制光信号的功率可以基于目标光放大组件101接收的业务光信号的功率确定。其中,泵浦能量转移到光信号是指泵浦光能量通过能级跃迁等效应进行能量转化实现。Similarly, when the optical signal received by the optical network node 10 increases, the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component 101 increases. At this time, the pump energy consumed by the service optical signal increases, resulting in distribution control. The pump energy of the optical signal is reduced, which reduces the power of the controlled optical signal. Therefore, the power of the control optical signal may be determined based on the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component 101 . Among them, the transfer of pump energy to optical signals refers to the energy conversion of pump light energy through effects such as energy level transitions.
在业务光信号出现掉波时,若光网络节点10中生成有控制光信号,在受激拉曼散射效应的影响下,短波长的业务光信号除了向长波长的业务光信号进行功率转移,还可以向波长比该短波长的业务光信号长的控制光信号进行功率转移,类似的,长波长的业务光信号还可以接收波长比该长波长的业务光信号短的控制光信号转移的功率。这样一来,长波长的业务光信号的功率相对于未出现掉波时的功率降低量减小,短波长的业务光信号的功率相对于未出现掉波时的功率增加量也减小,达到了减小甚至消除剩余波信号功率发生波动的幅度的效果,有助于保持光网络***的性能的稳定。类似的,在业务光信号出现增波时,通过控制光信号 也能够达到类似的效果,此处对其不再赘述。When the service optical signal drops, if a control optical signal is generated in the optical network node 10, under the influence of the stimulated Raman scattering effect, the short-wavelength service optical signal will transfer power to the long-wavelength service optical signal. Power can also be transferred to a control optical signal with a longer wavelength than the short-wavelength service optical signal. Similarly, the long-wavelength service optical signal can also receive the transferred power of a control optical signal with a shorter wavelength than the long-wavelength service optical signal. . In this way, the power of the long-wavelength service optical signal is reduced compared to the power decrease when no wave drop occurs, and the power of the short-wavelength service optical signal is also reduced relative to the power increase when no wave drop occurs, reaching In order to reduce or even eliminate the effect of fluctuations in residual wave signal power, it helps to maintain the stability of the performance of the optical network system. Similarly, when the service optical signal increases, by controlling the optical signal Similar effects can also be achieved, which will not be described again here.
图6为当业务光信号发生掉波,生成控制光信号和未生成控制光信号两种情况下,因受激拉曼散射效应导致的剩余波信号功率波动的示意图。图6中粗实线表示生成控制光信号的情况下,因受激拉曼散射效应导致的剩余波信号功率波动的情况。图6中粗虚线表示未生成控制光信号的情况下,因受激拉曼散射效应导致的剩余波信号功率波动的情况。根据图6可以看到,在生成控制光信号的情况下,由于控制光信号的自适应调整,补偿了掉波时业务光信号的功率变化,使得剩余波信号的功率波动程度显著降低,维持了掉波时光网络***的性能稳定。Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the residual wave signal power fluctuation caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect when the service optical signal is dropped and the control optical signal is generated and the control optical signal is not generated. The thick solid line in Figure 6 represents the power fluctuation of the residual wave signal caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect when a control light signal is generated. The thick dotted line in Figure 6 represents the power fluctuation of the residual wave signal caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect when no control light signal is generated. According to Figure 6, it can be seen that when the control optical signal is generated, the adaptive adjustment of the control optical signal compensates for the power change of the service optical signal when the wave is dropped, so that the power fluctuation of the remaining wave signal is significantly reduced, maintaining the The performance of the optical network system is stable even if the wave is dropped.
在业务光信号出现掉波时,若光网络节点10中生成有控制光信号,目标光放大组件101能够通过能级跃迁等效应,将泵浦光能量转化为业务光信号和控制光信号的能量,使得控制光信号能量增加。控制光信号能量的增加弥补了业务光信号光由于掉波导致的能量降低,使得控制光信号的功率与掉波后业务光信号的功率的总和,相较于掉波后业务光信号的功率,更接近或等于掉波前业务光信号的功率,因此,减小甚至消除了目标光放大组件101输入端光功率的变化程度,有助于维持目标光放大组件101输入端的功率稳定,进而消除光放瞬态效应。图7为当业务光信号发生掉波,且未生成控制光信号时,目标光放大组件101的光放瞬态效应的示意图。图8为当业务光信号发生掉波,生成控制光信号时,目标光放大组件101的光放瞬态效应。图7和图8中出现的尖峰表示光放大器的瞬态过冲。根据图7和图8的对比可以看到,通过控制光信号的自适应调整,较大幅度地减小了目标光放大组件101的光放瞬态过冲。When the service optical signal drops, if a control optical signal is generated in the optical network node 10, the target optical amplification component 101 can convert the pump light energy into the energy of the service optical signal and the control optical signal through energy level transition and other effects. , causing the energy of the control light signal to increase. The increase in the energy of the control optical signal makes up for the energy decrease of the service optical signal due to wave drop, so that the sum of the power of the control optical signal and the power of the service optical signal after the wave drop is compared with the power of the service optical signal after the wave drop. is closer to or equal to the power of the service optical signal before wave-dropping. Therefore, the change degree of the optical power at the input end of the target optical amplification component 101 is reduced or even eliminated, which helps to maintain the stability of the power at the input end of the target optical amplification component 101, thereby eliminating the optical Release transient effects. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of the transient effect of the optical amplification of the target optical amplification component 101 when the service optical signal drops and no control optical signal is generated. Figure 8 shows the optical amplifier transient effect of the target optical amplification component 101 when the service optical signal drops and a control optical signal is generated. The spikes appearing in Figures 7 and 8 represent transient overshoot of the optical amplifier. It can be seen from the comparison between FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 that by controlling the adaptive adjustment of the optical signal, the optical amplifier transient overshoot of the target optical amplification component 101 is greatly reduced.
由上可知,通过在目标光放大组件101的输入端和输出端之间形成回路,使得光网络节点10能够通过目标光放大组件101在回路中生成控制光信号,在光网络节点10出现增波或掉波时,该控制光信号能够对输入目标光放大组件101的光信号的功率进行调节,能够解决因受激拉曼散射效应带来的功率转移等导致剩余波信号功率波动的问题,以及目标光放大组件101的瞬态过冲问题,减轻了增波或掉波对光网络***的性能的影响。It can be seen from the above that by forming a loop between the input end and the output end of the target optical amplification component 101, the optical network node 10 can generate a control optical signal in the loop through the target optical amplification component 101, and increased waves appear at the optical network node 10. Or when the wave is dropped, the control optical signal can adjust the power of the optical signal input to the target optical amplification component 101, and can solve the problem of residual wave signal power fluctuation caused by power transfer caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect, and The transient overshoot problem of the target optical amplification component 101 reduces the impact of wave addition or wave drop on the performance of the optical network system.
并且,在光放大器的输入端和输出端之间形成回路后,目标光放大组件101就能够基于回路生成控制光信号,控制光信号的功率基于目标光放大组件101接收的业务光信号的功率确定,控制光信号的能量来自于目标光放大组件101释放的泵浦能量,使得该控制光信号无需通过外部注入,生成控制光信号的过程无需根据光网络节点10是否出现增波或掉波执行,且该过程也无需通过其他装置和软件进行控制。因此,该控制光信号的功率调节过程能够看成是自适应过程,该自适应过程能够实现功率的快速调节,能够适用于各种增波和掉波场景,且能够节省对光信号进行控制的成本,减小光网络节点10的体积。Moreover, after a loop is formed between the input end and the output end of the optical amplifier, the target optical amplification component 101 can generate a control optical signal based on the loop, and the power of the control optical signal is determined based on the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component 101 , the energy of the control optical signal comes from the pump energy released by the target optical amplification component 101, so that the control optical signal does not need to be injected from the outside, and the process of generating the control optical signal does not need to be executed according to whether the optical network node 10 has a wave increase or a wave drop. And this process does not need to be controlled by other devices and software. Therefore, the power adjustment process of controlling the optical signal can be regarded as an adaptive process. This adaptive process can realize rapid adjustment of power, can be applicable to various wave addition and wave drop scenarios, and can save the time of controlling the optical signal. cost and reduce the size of the optical network node 10.
需要说明的是,目标光放大组件101的输出端与输入端之间可以形成有一条或多条回路,光网络节点10可以通过目标光放大组件101在该一条或多条回路中的每条回路中生成控制光信号。且光网络节点10通过目标光放大组件101在每条回路中生成控制光信号的实现方式,均可以参考本申请实施例中的相关描述,此处不再赘述。It should be noted that one or more loops may be formed between the output end and the input end of the target optical amplification component 101, and the optical network node 10 may connect to each of the one or more loops through the target optical amplification component 101. Generate control light signals. In addition, for the implementation of the optical network node 10 generating the control optical signal in each loop through the target optical amplification component 101, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions in the embodiments of the present application, which will not be described again here.
其中,生成的控制光信号可以为包括多个波长的控制光信号。在一种实现方式中,控制光信号包括:第一控制光信号和/或第二控制光信号。第一控制光信号的波长小于目标光放大组件101输出的所有业务光信号的波长。第二控制光信号的波长大于目标光放大组件101输出的所有业务光信号的波长。此时,控制光信号不占用业务光信号波长通道,分布在业务光信号的波长两端,不占用业务光信号的波长信道,不会影响光网络***的性能。The generated control light signal may be a control light signal including multiple wavelengths. In one implementation, the control light signal includes: a first control light signal and/or a second control light signal. The wavelength of the first control optical signal is smaller than the wavelength of all service optical signals output by the target optical amplification component 101 . The wavelength of the second control optical signal is greater than the wavelength of all service optical signals output by the target optical amplification component 101 . At this time, the control optical signal does not occupy the wavelength channel of the service optical signal and is distributed at both ends of the wavelength of the service optical signal. It does not occupy the wavelength channel of the service optical signal and will not affect the performance of the optical network system.
并且,第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的波长可以根据应用需求进行设置。例如,由 于控制光信号的能量来自于目标光放大组件101释放的泵浦能量,控制光信号的波长与业务光信号的波长越靠近时,控制光信号对功率的自适应调整效果越好,减轻增波或掉波对光网络***性能的影响的能力越大,因此,可以设置第一控制光信号的波长稍小于所有业务光信号的波长,设置第二控制光信号的波长稍大于所有业务光信号的波长。例如,当相邻波道传输的光信号的波长相差0.4纳米时,可以使用波道C(1)-C(120)传输业务光信号,使用波道C(0)传输第一控制光信号,使用波道C(121)传输第二控制光信号,其中,波道C(i+1)和波道C(i-1)均为波道C(i)的相邻波道。Moreover, the wavelengths of the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal can be set according to application requirements. For example, by Since the energy of the control optical signal comes from the pump energy released by the target optical amplification component 101, the closer the wavelength of the control optical signal is to the wavelength of the service optical signal, the better the adaptive adjustment effect of the power of the control optical signal will be, reducing wave increase. Or the greater the ability of wave drop to affect the performance of the optical network system, therefore, you can set the wavelength of the first control optical signal to be slightly smaller than the wavelength of all service optical signals, and set the wavelength of the second control optical signal to be slightly larger than the wavelength of all service optical signals. wavelength. For example, when the wavelengths of optical signals transmitted by adjacent channels differ by 0.4 nanometers, channels C(1)-C(120) can be used to transmit the service optical signals, and channel C(0) can be used to transmit the first control optical signal. The second control optical signal is transmitted using channel C (121), where channel C (i+1) and channel C (i-1) are both adjacent channels of channel C (i).
需要说明的是,控制光信号还可以具有其他波长。例如,控制光信号的波长还可以小于业务光信号的最大波长,和/或,大于业务光信号的最小波长。并且,生成的控制光信号还可以包括多种波长均大于所有业务光信号的波长的控制光信号,以及,还可以包括多种波长均小于所有业务光信号的波长的控制光信号,本申请实施例对其不做具体限定。It should be noted that the control optical signal can also have other wavelengths. For example, the wavelength of the control optical signal may be smaller than the maximum wavelength of the service optical signal, and/or be larger than the minimum wavelength of the service optical signal. Moreover, the generated control optical signals may also include control optical signals with multiple wavelengths greater than the wavelengths of all service optical signals, and may also include control optical signals with multiple wavelengths smaller than the wavelengths of all service optical signals. This application implements The example does not specifically limit it.
可选地,当控制光信号包括多种波长的控制光信号时,例如控制光信号包括第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号时,如图9所示,光网络节点10还包括:激射能力调整器103。激射能力调整器103的输入端与分光器件102的输出端耦合,且激射能力调整器103位于回路中。Optionally, when the control optical signal includes control optical signals of multiple wavelengths, for example, when the control optical signal includes a first control optical signal and a second control optical signal, as shown in FIG. 9 , the optical network node 10 further includes: a laser; Shooting capacity adjuster 103. The input end of the lasing power adjuster 103 is coupled to the output end of the spectroscopic device 102, and the lasing power adjuster 103 is located in the loop.
在一种实现方式中,激射能力调整器103可以位于回路中,且位于光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路外,即激射能力调整器103位于回路中不属于该传输通路的部分。光网络节点和其他光网络节点均用于在光网络***中传输业务光信号,即光网络***中除光网络节点外的光网络节点均为其他光网络节点。这样一来,由于激射能力调整器103不设置在光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路中,能够减小对业务信号的干扰,保证光网络***的性能。In one implementation, the lasing capability adjuster 103 may be located in the loop and outside the transmission path through which the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes transmit optical signals. That is, the lasing capability adjuster 103 located in the loop does not belong to the transmission path. part of the transmission path. Optical network nodes and other optical network nodes are used to transmit business optical signals in the optical network system. That is, the optical network nodes in the optical network system except the optical network nodes are all other optical network nodes. In this way, since the lasing capability adjuster 103 is not disposed in the transmission path between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes for transmitting optical signals, interference to business signals can be reduced and the performance of the optical network system can be ensured.
激射能力调整器103用于调整控制光信号的激射能力。控制光信号的激射能力指用于形成控制光信号的分子束被辐射场激励跃迁到下一能级,发生受激发射生成控制光信号的能力。在该光网络节点10中,辐射场激励主要指来自目标光放大组件101中泵浦光能量的激励。调整控制光信号的激射能力的目的,是对不同波长的控制光信号的激射能力进行平衡,使得用于形成不同波长的控制光信号的分子受激被发射的几率基本相同。这样一来,在业务光信号出现增波或掉波时,泵浦能量能够较均衡地向多个波长的控制光信号进行转移,使得多个波长的控制光信号的功率基本相等。例如,当控制光信号包括第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号时,通过激射能力调整器103对该第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的激射能力进行调节,使得第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的功率能够基本相等。此时,第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号对增波或掉波引起的功率波动的弥补能力基本相同,能够较大程度地维持光网络***的性能稳定性。The lasing capability adjuster 103 is used to adjust the lasing capability of the control light signal. The lasing ability of controlled optical signals refers to the ability of the molecular beam used to form the controlled optical signals to be excited by the radiation field and jump to the next energy level, where stimulated emission occurs to generate the controlled optical signals. In the optical network node 10, the radiation field excitation mainly refers to the excitation from the pump light energy in the target optical amplification component 101. The purpose of adjusting the lasing ability of the control light signal is to balance the lasing ability of the control light signal of different wavelengths, so that the molecules used to form the control light signal of different wavelengths have basically the same probability of being stimulated and emitted. In this way, when the service optical signal increases or drops, the pump energy can be transferred to the control optical signals of multiple wavelengths in a relatively even manner, so that the power of the control optical signals of multiple wavelengths is basically equal. For example, when the control light signal includes a first control light signal and a second control light signal, the lasing capabilities of the first control light signal and the second control light signal are adjusted by the lasing capability adjuster 103, so that the first The power of the control light signal and the second control light signal can be substantially equal. At this time, the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal have basically the same ability to compensate for power fluctuations caused by wave addition or wave drop, and can maintain the performance stability of the optical network system to a large extent.
并且,调整作用还可以包括在平衡不同波长的控制信号的激射能力的基础上,增大或减小控制光信号的激射能力。例如,当控制光信号包括第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号时,若业务光信号出现掉波,激射能力调整器103不仅用于平衡第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的激射能力,还用于增大第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的激射能力,使得因掉波而多余的泵浦光能量能够尽量多地向第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号转移。若业务光信号出现增波,激射能力调整器103不仅用于平衡第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的激射能力,还用于减小第一控制光信号和第二控制光信号的激射能力,使得泵浦光能量能够向增加的业务光信号转移。Moreover, the adjustment function may also include increasing or decreasing the lasing capability of the control optical signal on the basis of balancing the lasing capabilities of the control signals of different wavelengths. For example, when the control optical signal includes a first control optical signal and a second control optical signal, if the service optical signal drops, the lasing capability adjuster 103 is not only used to balance the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal. The lasing ability is also used to increase the lasing ability of the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal, so that the excess pump light energy due to wave drop can be directed to the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal as much as possible. Optical signal transfer. If the service optical signal increases, the lasing capability adjuster 103 is not only used to balance the lasing capabilities of the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal, but is also used to reduce the first control optical signal and the second control optical signal. The lasing capability enables the pump light energy to be transferred to increased business optical signals.
在一种可实现方式中,激射能力调整器103可以为光放大器。此时,该激射能力调整器103还用于对接收到的光信号进行放大。本申请实施例对该光放大器的类型不做限定,只要 该光放大器能够调整控制光信号的激射能力,且能够对信号进行放大即可。例如,该光放大器可以为半导体光放大器(semiconductor opticai amplifier,SOA),或者,该光放大器可以为光纤放大器,如掺铒光纤放大器(erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier,EDFA)。In an implementation manner, the lasing capability adjuster 103 may be an optical amplifier. At this time, the lasing capability adjuster 103 is also used to amplify the received optical signal. The embodiment of this application does not limit the type of the optical amplifier, as long as The optical amplifier can adjust and control the lasing ability of the optical signal, and can amplify the signal. For example, the optical amplifier may be a semiconductor optical amplifier (semiconductor optic amplifier, SOA), or the optical amplifier may be a fiber amplifier, such as an erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier (EDFA).
或者,激射能力调整器103可以为其他能够调整激射能力的器件。例如,激射能力调整器103还可以为是饱和吸收体等无源器件。Alternatively, the lasing capability adjuster 103 may be other devices capable of adjusting lasing capability. For example, the lasing capability adjuster 103 may also be a passive device such as a saturable absorber.
可选地,如图10所示,光网络节点10还可以包括:光衰减器104。光衰减器104的输入端与分光器件102的输出端耦合,且光衰减器104位于回路中。光衰减器104用于对接收到的光信号的光功率进行衰减,以减小光信号的损耗。在光网络节点10中设置光衰减器104的目的,是为了保证光信号的增益能够大于光信号的损耗,使得在回路中能够生成控制光信号。在一种可实现方式中,该光衰减器104可以为可变光衰减器(variable optical attenuator,VOA)。Optionally, as shown in Figure 10, the optical network node 10 may also include: an optical attenuator 104. The input end of the optical attenuator 104 is coupled with the output end of the optical splitting device 102, and the optical attenuator 104 is located in the loop. The optical attenuator 104 is used to attenuate the optical power of the received optical signal to reduce the loss of the optical signal. The purpose of arranging the optical attenuator 104 in the optical network node 10 is to ensure that the gain of the optical signal can be greater than the loss of the optical signal, so that a control optical signal can be generated in the loop. In an implementation manner, the optical attenuator 104 may be a variable optical attenuator (VOA).
在一种实现方式中,光衰减器104可以位于回路中,且位于光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路外,即光衰减器104位于回路中不属于该传输通路的部分。这样一来,由于光衰减器104不设置在光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路中,能够减小对业务信号的干扰,保证光网络***的性能。需要说明的是,当光衰减器104和激射能力调整器103均位于回路中不属于该传输通路的部分时,激射能力调整器103的输入端可以通过光衰减器104与分光器件102的输出端耦合。In one implementation, the optical attenuator 104 may be located in the loop and outside the transmission path through which the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes transmit optical signals. That is, the optical attenuator 104 is located in a part of the loop that does not belong to the transmission path. . In this way, since the optical attenuator 104 is not disposed in the transmission path between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes for transmitting optical signals, interference to business signals can be reduced and the performance of the optical network system can be ensured. It should be noted that when the optical attenuator 104 and the lasing capability adjuster 103 are located in a part of the loop that does not belong to the transmission path, the input end of the lasing capability adjuster 103 can pass through the optical attenuator 104 and the spectroscopic device 102. Output coupling.
回路中来自分光器件的光信号是目标光放大组件101输出的光信号,该光信号包括控制光信号和业务光信号。控制光信号用于对输入目标光放大组件101的业务光信号的功率进行调节,该控制光信号需要在回路中循环。但若业务光信号经过回路再进入目标光放大组件101,会对光网络***的性能产生影响。因此,需要从回路中来自分光器件的光信号中,滤出控制光信号,滤除业务光信号,并向目标光放大组件101提供该控制光信号。该滤除业务光信号的实现方式有多种,下面以以下两种实现方式为例进行说明:The optical signal from the optical splitter in the loop is the optical signal output by the target optical amplification component 101, and the optical signal includes a control optical signal and a service optical signal. The control optical signal is used to adjust the power of the service optical signal input to the target optical amplification component 101, and the control optical signal needs to circulate in the loop. However, if the service optical signal passes through the loop and then enters the target optical amplification component 101, the performance of the optical network system will be affected. Therefore, it is necessary to filter out the control optical signal and the service optical signal from the optical signal from the optical splitting device in the loop, and provide the control optical signal to the target optical amplification component 101 . There are many ways to implement the filtering of service optical signals. The following two implementation ways are used as examples for explanation:
在滤出控制光信号的第一种实现方式中,光网络节点10还可以包括:滤波器件。滤波器件的输入端与分光器件102的输出端耦合,且滤波器件位于回路中。滤波器件用于从来自分光器件的光信号中,滤出控制光信号,并向目标光放大组件101提供控制光信号。其中,滤波器件可以为任何具有滤波功能的光器件。例如,该滤波器件105可以为带通滤波器等滤波器(filter),或者,可以为波长选择器。波长选择器可以为波长选择开关或阵列波导光栅(arrayed waveguide grating,AWG)等光器件。并且,滤波器件在光网络节点10中的位置可以根据应用需求进行设置。下面以以下几种实现方式为例,分别对其进行说明:In the first implementation manner of filtering out the control optical signal, the optical network node 10 may also include: a filter device. The input end of the filter device is coupled to the output end of the spectroscopic device 102, and the filter device is located in the loop. The filter device is used to filter out the control light signal from the light signal from the spectroscopic device and provide the control light signal to the target light amplification component 101 . Wherein, the filter device can be any optical device with filtering function. For example, the filter device 105 may be a filter such as a bandpass filter, or may be a wavelength selector. The wavelength selector can be an optical device such as a wavelength selective switch or an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG). Moreover, the position of the filter device in the optical network node 10 can be set according to application requirements. Let's take the following implementation methods as examples to explain them respectively:
在第一种实现方式中,如图11所示,滤波器件105可以位于回路中,且位于光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路中,即滤波器件105位于回路中属于该传输通路的部分。此时,由于输入滤波器件105的信号包括来自其他光网络节点的光信号和来自分光器件的光信号,滤波器件105可以具有多个输入端,该多个输入端包括:与其他光网络节点的输出端耦合的输入端,及与分光器件102的输出端耦合的输入端。由于该滤波器件105的输入端还与其他光网络节点的输出端耦合,则滤波器件105还用于从来自其他光网络节点的光信号中,滤出指定波长的业务光信号,并向目标光放大组件101提供滤出的业务光信号。In the first implementation, as shown in Figure 11, the filter device 105 can be located in the loop and in the transmission path between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes to transmit optical signals. That is, the filter device 105 located in the loop belongs to the part of the transmission path. At this time, since the signals input to the filter device 105 include optical signals from other optical network nodes and optical signals from the optical splitting device, the filter device 105 may have multiple input terminals, and the multiple input terminals include: an input terminal coupled to the output terminal, and an input terminal coupled to the output terminal of the spectroscopic device 102 . Since the input end of the filter device 105 is also coupled with the output end of other optical network nodes, the filter device 105 is also used to filter out the service optical signal of the specified wavelength from the optical signals from other optical network nodes, and transmit it to the target optical signal. Amplification component 101 provides filtered traffic light signals.
可选的,在该实现方式中,滤波器件105的输入端还可以与位于回路外的其他光器件的输出端耦合,该其他光器件可以提供光信号。则滤波器件105还用于从来自其他光器件的光信号中,滤出指定波长的业务光信号,并向目标光放大组件101提供滤出的业务光信号。其中,指定波长的业务光信号为光网络***实现业务所需的光信号。需要说明的是,来自其他 光器件的光信号可以包括以下一种或多种:由其他光器件生成的光信号,及其他光器件接收到的光信号。例如,该其他光器件可以为该光网络节点10中的光器件(如光网络单元(optical network unit,ONU))。此时,来自其他光器件的光信号为ONU生成的光信号。又例如,该其他光器件可以为其他光网络节点。此时,来自其他光器件的光信号为其他光网络节点接收到的光信号,且当其他光网络节点包括能够生成光信号的光器件时,来自其他光器件的光信号还包括该光器件生成的光信号。其中,其他光网络节点和位于回路外且属于该光网络节点10的其他光器件,均可以统称为位于回路外的其他光器件。Optionally, in this implementation, the input end of the filter device 105 can also be coupled with the output end of other optical devices located outside the loop, and the other optical devices can provide optical signals. The filter device 105 is also used to filter out the service optical signal of a specified wavelength from the optical signals from other optical devices, and provide the filtered service optical signal to the target optical amplification component 101. Among them, the service optical signal of the specified wavelength is the optical signal required by the optical network system to realize the service. It should be noted that from other The optical signal of the optical device may include one or more of the following: optical signals generated by other optical devices, and optical signals received by other optical devices. For example, the other optical device may be an optical device in the optical network node 10 (such as an optical network unit (ONU)). At this time, the optical signals from other optical devices are the optical signals generated by the ONU. For another example, the other optical devices may be other optical network nodes. At this time, the optical signals from other optical devices are optical signals received by other optical network nodes, and when other optical network nodes include optical devices capable of generating optical signals, the optical signals from other optical devices also include those generated by the optical device. light signal. Among them, other optical network nodes and other optical devices located outside the loop and belonging to the optical network node 10 can be collectively referred to as other optical devices located outside the loop.
在第二种实现方式中,如图12所示,滤波器件105可以位于回路中,且位于光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路外,即滤波器件105位于回路中不属于该传输通路的部分。此时,滤波器件105可以具有至少一个输入端,该至少一个输入端包括:与分光器件102的输出端耦合的输入端。可选的,该滤波器件105还可以包括与其他光器件的输出端耦合的输入端。当滤波器件105还与其他光器件的输出端耦合时,滤波器件105还用于从来自其他光器件的光信号中,滤出指定波长的业务光信号,并向目标光放大组件101提供滤出的业务光信号。其中,其他光器件可以为位于回路外的光器件。例如,其他光器件包括其他光网络节点或该光网络节点10中的光器件(如ONU)。In the second implementation, as shown in Figure 12, the filter device 105 can be located in the loop and outside the transmission path of the optical signal transmitted between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes. That is, the filter device 105 is located in the loop and does not belong to the loop. part of the transmission path. At this time, the filter device 105 may have at least one input terminal, and the at least one input terminal includes: an input terminal coupled with the output terminal of the spectroscopic device 102 . Optionally, the filter device 105 may also include an input terminal coupled to the output terminals of other optical devices. When the filter device 105 is also coupled with the output end of other optical devices, the filter device 105 is also used to filter out the service optical signal of the specified wavelength from the optical signals from other optical devices, and provide the filtered out signal to the target optical amplification component 101. business light signal. Among them, other optical devices may be optical devices located outside the loop. For example, other optical devices include other optical network nodes or optical devices (such as ONUs) in the optical network node 10 .
由于该滤波器位于光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路外,则该滤波器件105输出的光信号可以通过具有多个输入端,且能够通过输出端输出来自该多个输入端的光信号的光器件实现。可选地,该光器件可以为波分复用器或波长选择器等光器件。Since the filter is located outside the transmission path of optical signals between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes, the optical signal output by the filter device 105 can have multiple input terminals, and can be output from the multiple input terminals through the output terminal. The optical signal at the end is realized by optical devices. Optionally, the optical device may be an optical device such as a wavelength division multiplexer or a wavelength selector.
例如,如图13所示,光网络节点10还可以包括:第一波分复用器106。第一波分复用器106的输入端与滤波器件105的输出端耦合。且第一波分复用器106的输入端还用于与其他光器件的输出端耦合。第一波分复用器106的输出端与目标光放大组件101的输入端耦合。且第一波分复用器106可以位于光网络节点10与其他光网络节点传输光信号的传输通路中。当第一波分复用器106的输入端与滤波器件105的输出端耦合时,第一波分复用器106用于向目标光放大组件101提供来自滤波器件105的控制光信号。当第一波分复用器106的输入端还与其他光器件的输出端耦合时,第一波分复用器106还用于向目标光放大组件101提供来自其他光器件的业务光信号。其中,其他光器件为位于回路外的光器件。例如,其他光器件可以为其他光网络节点或当前光网络节点10中的光器件(如ONU)。For example, as shown in Figure 13, the optical network node 10 may further include: a first wavelength division multiplexer 106. The input terminal of the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is coupled with the output terminal of the filter device 105 . And the input terminal of the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is also used to couple with the output terminals of other optical devices. The output end of the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is coupled with the input end of the target optical amplification component 101 . And the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 may be located in a transmission path between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes for transmitting optical signals. When the input end of the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is coupled to the output end of the filter device 105, the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is used to provide the control optical signal from the filter device 105 to the target optical amplification component 101. When the input end of the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is also coupled with the output end of other optical devices, the first wavelength division multiplexer 106 is also used to provide the target optical amplification component 101 with service optical signals from other optical devices. Among them, other optical devices are optical devices located outside the loop. For example, other optical devices may be other optical network nodes or optical devices in the current optical network node 10 (such as ONU).

The input terminal of the first wavelength selector is used for coupling with the output terminals of other optical network nodes. The output terminal of the first wavelength selector is coupled to the input terminal of the first wavelength division multiplexer. The first wavelength selector is used to filter out service optical signals of specified wavelengths from optical signals from other optical network nodes, and provide the filtered service optical signals to the first wavelength division multiplexer. At this time, the first wavelength division multiplexer is used to converge the filtered control optical signal and service optical signal to the target optical amplification component 101 . In an implementation manner, the function of the first wavelength selector can be implemented by the first wavelength selective switch or the second wavelength selective switch in FIG. 2 . For example, as shown in FIG. 14 , FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram of realizing the function of the first wavelength selector through the second wavelength selective switch.

This can be achieved, for example, with a wavelength selector. The input terminal of the wavelength selector is coupled with the output terminal of the filter device 105 . And the input end of the wavelength selector is also used to couple with the output end of other optical devices. The output end of the wavelength selector is coupled with the input end of the target light amplifying component 101 . Moreover, the wavelength selector may be located in a transmission path between the optical network node 10 and other optical network nodes for transmitting optical signals. At this time, the wavelength selector is also used to filter out the service optical signal of a specified wavelength from the optical signal from other optical devices, and provide the filtered service optical signal to the target optical amplification component 101. Among them, other optical devices are optical devices located outside the loop.

When an optical network node has a wave increase or drop, the control optical signal can adjust the power of the optical signal input to the target optical amplification component, and can solve the problem of residual wave signals caused by power transfer caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect. The performance fluctuation problem and the transient overshoot problem of the target optical amplification component reduce the impact of wave addition or wave loss on the performance of the optical network system.

The energy of the control optical signal comes from the target optical amplification when the service optical signal increases or drops. The excess pump energy released by the component, the control optical signal does not need to be injected externally. The process of generating the control optical signal does not need to be performed based on whether the optical signal of the optical network node increases or drops, and the process does not need to be through other devices and Software controls. In addition, the power of the control optical signal is determined based on the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component. Therefore, the power adjustment process of controlling the optical signal can be regarded as an adaptive process.

In the optical network When a node experiences a wave increase or wave loss, the control optical signal can adjust the power of the optical signal input to the target optical amplification component, and can solve the problem of residual wave signal performance fluctuations caused by power transfer caused by the stimulated Raman scattering effect. , as well as the transient overshoot problem of the target optical amplification component, and reduce the impact of wave addition or wave loss on the performance of the optical network system.

The energy of the control optical signal comes from the excess pump energy released by the target optical amplification component when the service optical signal increases or drops. The control optical signal does not need to be injected from the outside. The process of generating the control optical signal There is no need to perform the operation based on whether the optical signal of the optical network node increases or drops, and the process does not need to be controlled by other devices and software. In addition, the power of the control optical signal is determined based on the power of the service optical signal received by the target optical amplification component. Therefore, the power adjustment process of controlling the optical signal can be regarded as an adaptive process. This adaptive process can achieve rapid adjustment of power, can be applied to various wave addition and wave drop scenarios, and saves the time of controlling the optical signal. cost and reduce the size of optical network nodes.
