Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce influence due to the excess modulation of a semiconductor laser and to stabilize the quality of a transmitted image by inverting the polarity of video signals in N/2 channels out of video signals in N channels to be multiplexed to multiplex analog frequency. CONSTITUTION:The polarity of video signals in N/2 channels out of video signals in N channels (N is an integer, 1<N) is inverted to multiplex the analog frequency. Namely the video signals of odd channels are directly inputted to a frequency multiplexing part 2 and the video signals of even channels are inverted at their polarity by analog inverting amplifiers 1 and inputted to the frequency multiplexing part 2 and the analog frequency-multiplexed signal is applied to a light transmitting part 3. In the part 3, a semiconductor laser is modulated by the analog frequency-multiplexed signal and its optical signal is sent to an optical fiber 4. A light receiving part 5 converts the received optical signal into an electric signal and sends the electric signal to a tuner 6 and the video signals of even channels outputted from the tuner 6 are inverted to the original polarity by the amplifiers 1. Thus deterioration in the quality of a transmitted image can be reduced.

Detailed Description of the Invention The present invention relates to an RFF multiple signal optical transmission system in which multi-channel video signals are analog frequency multiplexed and transmitted by optical intensity modulation using a semiconductor laser. Conventional technology In the conventional RFF multiple signal optical transmission method, multiple video signals are analog frequency multiplexed and transmitted using a semiconductor laser. Although it is known that the amount of wave distortion fluctuates,
In particular, when overmodulation occurs, noise and distortion characteristics (remarkably deteriorate)
However, recently it has become clear that increasing the number of multiplexed video signal channels does not necessarily result in overmodulation.In other words, it has become clear that overmodulation does not necessarily occur when the signal amplitudes of each video signal have no temporal correlation. ;Yo, for a simple addition (N x m) of the modulation degree of each channel, f, m
Since it has been confirmed through experiments that it can be approximated by JN, the overall modulation depth is approximated by mJN.As multi-channel multiplexing is being carried out, the problem that the present invention aims to solve.However, the above-mentioned multiplex transmission (Tomo) When there is a temporal correlation in the signal amplitude between the video signals to be multiplexed, ζ
There is a risk of overmodulation as the total modulation degree increases.Also, even if there is no temporal correlation between multiplexed video signals, instantaneous overmodulation is unavoidable. In view of the fact that the noise and distortion characteristics of lasers change significantly, leading to deterioration of transmission image quality, the present invention has been developed to provide an RF multiplexed signal light that reduces the influence of overmodulation of semiconductor lasers and stabilizes transmission image quality. A means for solving the problem (first means) RF multiplexed signal optical transmission system of the present invention Of which N
A (Second means) RF multiplexed signal optical transmission system of the present invention (Part 2) In order to solve the above problems, the amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal is is detected and clips the signal amplitude part of the multiplexed signal that exceeds the reference value.
A method for modulating a semiconductor laser (third means) RF multiplexed signal optical transmission system of the present invention (a third means) A delay section is installed to delay the video signal to be multiplexed according to the output of the comparator section for analog frequency multiplexing.
It modulates a semiconductor laser. 4. Effect: By the above means, overmodulation of the semiconductor laser can be suppressed and the transmission image quality can be stabilized. Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an RF multiplexed signal optical transmission apparatus which is a first embodiment of the present invention.
is an analog inverting amplifier, 2 is a frequency multiplexing section, 3 is an optical transmitting section using a semiconductor laser, 4 is an optical fiber, 5 is an optical receiving section using a light receiving element, 6 is a tuner a, and the odd channel video signal is sent directly to the frequency multiplexing section. The even-numbered channel video signals are input to frequency multiplexer 2 after having their polarities inverted by analog inverting amplifier l.
The analog frequency multiplexed signal from the frequency multiplexing section 2 is applied to the optical transmitting section 3.The optical transmitting section 3 modulates the semiconductor laser with the analog frequency multiplexed signal, and the optical signal is sent to the optical fiber 4. The received optical signal is converted into an electrical signal and sent to the tuner 6 by the optical receiver 5 (above), and the even channel video signal 4 output from the tuner 6 is again inverted in polarity by the analog inverting amplifier l. Even if the original polarity is restored, the frequency multiplexer 2 modulates the amplitude of the carrier wave for each video signal. At this time, the amplitude of the carrier wave is maximum in the horizontal synchronization part of the video signal. L is used in cases where the phases of all video signals are synchronized by inversion using an analog inverting amplifier L.
Since the polarities of the horizontal synchronization part of the video signal are added alternately, the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal is averaged. If this is done, the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal will be further averaged.a (Embodiment 2) Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an RF multiplexed signal optical transmission apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 2, the same numbers as in FIG. 1 are given to parts having the same functions and effects as in FIG. 1, and detailed explanations are omitted.

In FIG. 2, 7 is a clipper which compares the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal output from the frequency multiplexing section 2 with a preset reference value, clips the signal portion exceeding the reference value, and transmits the signal amplitude to the optical transmitter 3. Even if the semiconductor laser is modulated by the clipped analog frequency multiplexed signal in the optical transmitter 3, the reference value is set within a range in which the modulation degree of this semiconductor laser does not become overmodulated. Because clipping may occur at a certain moment, deterioration of the transmitted image quality during that clipping period is unavoidable. Image quality deterioration is suppressed only during the clipping period (Embodiment 3) FIG. In the figure, parts having the same functions and actions as those in FIG. 1 are given the same numbers as in FIG. 1, and detailed explanations are omitted.

In FIG. 3, 8 is a comparison section 9 is a TV modulator 100
+k (k is an integer, 1≦≦N) means that the delay section 2 is a frequency multiplexing section consisting of a TV modulator 9 and a delay section (100+k), and the analog frequency multiplexed signal from the frequency multiplexing section 2 is sent to the comparison section 8. Even if the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal is inputted, the comparator 8 compares the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal with a reference value, and if the signal amplitude exceeds the reference value, it sends a control signal to the delay unit (100+k) in the comparator 2H&. (Friend: The modulation degree of the semiconductor laser is set within a range that does not cause overmodulation, and when the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal exceeds this range, the delay part (
There is no need to send control signals to each delay section (100+k).
100+k) is connected to each delay section (100+k) by its control signal.
+k) The modulated carrier wave input to the delay unit (100+k) is delayed by a set time.When a control signal is received, the delay time is held and is not reset until the power is turned off. Even if they are set to different values, with this configuration, the phase of the carrier waves of each channel will match, and the signal amplitude of the analog frequency multiplexed signal may become large enough to cause overmodulation of the semiconductor laser.
The advantage of the invention is that the amplitudes of the analog frequency multiplexed signals applied to the semiconductor laser of the optical transmitter 3 are averaged since different delay times are given to the video signals of several channels detected by the comparator 8. According to the present invention, the deterioration in transmission image quality due to overmodulation of semiconductor lasers can be reduced and multi-channel video signals can be transmitted, so the economic effects are enormous.
