Description

Utilize the method and structure of high birefringence uniform fiber grating compensating polarization mode dispersion
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method and structure and preparation thereof that utilizes high birefringence uniform fiber grating compensated optical fiber polarization mode dispersion (PMD, Polarization Mode Dispersion); Be mainly used in speed fiber optic communication systems because the fiber PMD that the optical fiber asymmetry is caused compensation; Belong to technical field of optical fiber communication.
Background technology
Because people increase day by day to the demand of quantity of information, high capacity, long Distance Transmission are the target that Fibre Optical Communication Technology is pursued forever, from 10Gb/s to 40Gb/s, especially more than the 40Gb/s, the fiber PMD of looking that originally is not held in esteem becomes the major obstacle that the restriction optical fiber telecommunications system is upgraded and developed gradually.So the PMD compensation technique has been subjected to domestic and international researchist's extensive concern since the eighties of last century the nineties.
The PMD compensation technique can simply be divided into two classes: electric territory PMD compensation, light territory PMD compensation.PMD compensation in light territory has the conversion of the photoelectricity of need not light, signal format is transparent, bandwidth is big, is not subjected to advantages such as electronic bottleneck restriction, also is to be expected to one of PMD compensation scheme that solves the above high speed optical communication system of 40Gbit/s.Its compensatory michanism be by at the receiving end of transmission line additional with fibre circuit PMD vector equal and opposite in direction but the opposite compensating unit of direction, be zero thereby make to the PMD of the whole circuit of signal receiving end at signal input part, its ultimate principle as shown in Figure 1.
Because the PMD characteristic is different with other characteristic of optical fiber such as loss, chromatic dispersion, it is a variable at random, and a general PMD compensator comprises four parts: Polarization Controller; The variable time delay line; Feedback signal probe unit and control module, as shown in Figure 2.The effect of Polarization Controller is to change the polarization state that signal is input to the variable time delay line, perhaps is interpreted as the PMD vector that changes the PMD compensator, makes it opposite with PMD direction vector in the circuit.The variable time delay line is used to change the time delay size, promptly changes the mould of the PMD vector of compensator, makes the PMD equal and opposite in direction in itself and the circuit.The feedback signal probe unit is an amount of describing the PMD degree of compensation, and control module then is made up of control algolithm (software section) and control circuit (hardware components) two parts, is used for making the PMD compensator make real-time adjusting according to the variation of circuit PMD.One of key of PMD compensator is the variable time delay line.A compensation performance is good, and fast compensator of response time to the basic demand of line of time delay is: have big delay adjusting scope, have the response time fast, it is little and simple and compact for structure etc. to insert loss.
The variable time delay line of compensating unit generally has following several in the PMD compensator at present: a, polarization maintaining optical fibre; B, optical device; C, birefringence LiNbO 3Waveguiding structure; D, high birefringence nonlinearly chirped fiber grating etc.Polarization maintaining optical fibre generally adopts adjustment Differential Group Delay (DGD, Differential Group Delay), and response speed is relatively slow, and range of adjustment is smaller, and operability is low.Optical device is to adopt polarization beam apparatus, changes time delay thereby change the free space optical path difference, and this structure is relatively complicated.Wherein, fiber grating has all optical fibre structure, and is dexterous compact, DGD can be adjustable continuously on a large scale etc. advantage, cause researcher's concern in recent years.Birefringence fiber has different delay inequalities to different input polarizations, and raster nonlinearity is warbled and made this grating DGD have controllability.Lee, people such as S (Photonics Technology Letters photon technology wall bulletin, in October, 1999,11 10 phases of volume, 1277-1279 page or leaf) propose to adopt the birefringence nonlinearly chirped fiber grating to carry out the method for PMD compensation first.Their Pan Z of group afterwards, Xie Y, people such as Lee S have carried out optimizing (OFC meeting in 2000, the 3rd volume 113-115 page or leaf) to syndeton again.The birefringence nonlinearly chirped fiber grating can utilize non-linear chirp mask plate ultraviolet to be written on the photosensitive optical fiber of birefringence, perhaps utilizes the linear chrip mask plate by the uv-exposure time generation non-linear chirp of control to the photosensitive optical fiber of birefringence.Yet these methods or need expensive non-linear chirp mask plate perhaps need the accurately time shutter of control, the manufacturing technology poor repeatability, thus ratio defective product is quite low.And different DGD adjustable extents need different phase mask plates, have increased the cost of product especially.Based on this, people (Opt.Comm. optical communication, 2002 such as Xu Kun, 202 phase 297-302 pages or leaves) a kind of adjustable PMD compensator based on the sampling optical-fiber grating structure has been proposed, sampled-grating can utilize even phase mask plate to make, but the manufacturing sampling fiber grating difficulty is bigger, and repeatability is relatively poor.Subsequently, people's (Opt.Comm. optical communications such as Xia Zhang, 2002,214 phase 123-127 pages or leaves) delivered the adjustable PMD design of Compensator of a kind of linear chirp optical fiber grating type scheme, adopt the method that grating is applied lateral stress, produce stress birefrin, thereby regulate fiber grating DGD, this scheme is owing to exert pressure to the fiber grating side direction, and we know optical fiber especially fiber grating is relatively more fragile when lateral force, fracture easily, thus have a greatly reduced quality on the dependability.But the PMD compensator of above structure all is based on linear chirp optical fiber grating or non-linear chirp grating, generally needs the high phase mask plate of warbling of cost to make.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to propose a kind of method and structure that utilizes high birefringence uniform fiber grating compensating polarization mode dispersion, this PMD compensating device preparation is simple, structure is dexterous, DGD is easy to continuously adjustable, to solve birth defects such as complex manufacturing technology, cost height, poor repeatability and reliability that more current grating type optical fiber PMD compensators exist be low.
The objective of the invention is by following realization:
A kind of method and structure that utilizes high birefringence uniform fiber grating compensation PMD is characterized in that comprising: variable time delay line 4 is made up of two parts: the object carrier 2 that a high birefringence uniform fiber grating 1 and a width that is used to adhere to change along its length.Object carrier 2 has homogeneous thickness, but its width is the function f (z) of a variation along object carrier length z direction.Object carrier 2 one ends are fixed, and the other end is the free state placement.Its function is as optical grating axial strain adjusted device.The port b that fiber grating signal input part and has the optical fiber circulator 6 of three ports links to each other, before circulator port a, connect Polarization Controller 5, circulator port c connects one section polarization maintaining optical fibre or birefringece crystal 7, adopt a Polarization Maintaining Optical Fiber Fusion Splicer or an additional polarization rotator 11 to guarantee that its PMD vector is opposite with the PMD direction vector of fiber grating during connection, thereby regulate the DGD variation range of compensator of the present invention, through coupling mechanism or beam splitter 10 signal is outputed to receiving end then, enter control module 9 through coupling mechanism beam splitting rear section signal by feedback signal probe unit 8, carry out the self-adaptation adjusting to Polarization Controller 5 and the variable time delay line 4 that is somebody's turn to do based on fiber grating, constitute a complete PMD compensator based on the high birefringence uniform fiber grating.
Under temperature-resistant condition, uniform fiber grating is applied axial stress ε (z) (z represents the optical grating axial position), then, can obtain grating and be shown at the Bragg at z place wavelength table owing to the elastic effect of optical fiber:
λ(z)=2n eff00(1-ρ e)ε(z)] (1)
In the formula, optical fibre refractivity n Eff, ρ eBe elasto-optical coefficient, Λ 0The cycle of expression uniform fiber grating.Can find out directly that by following formula the reflection Bragg wavelength shift size and the stress of fiber grating are directly related.If grating is applied a gradient gradual change stress, because the variation of grating effective period, the Bragg wavelength will be along grating length direction linear change, thereby makes uniform fiber grating become linear chirp optical fiber grating.And if the stress that applies is a nonlinear function along axle z direction, then as can be known, uniform fiber grating will develop into a nonlinearly chirped fiber grating this moment.Therefore, if a high birefringence uniform fiber grating is axially applied non-linear stress at it, then this grating develops into a high birefringence nonlinearly chirped fiber grating.Signal is through introducing a variable time delay amount between grating two speed polarization principal axis directions behind the optical grating reflection.And the nonlinear relationship of reflection wavelength and reflection position has determined character such as the GVD (Group Velocity Dispersion) of grating and DGD, thereby make grating have the DGD regulating power.Therefore, by designing suitable grating stress distribution field, the grating characteristic that can obtain to expect.
Variable time delay line structure of the present invention mainly comprises two parts: the object carrier 2 that a high birefringence uniform fiber grating 1 and a width change along its length, and this object carrier one end is fixed, and the other end is free state.Grating can utilize ultraviolet glue or other adhesive curing to object carrier.If grating length is l, object carrier is long to be L, and thickness is t, and width is w (z) with the function representation that the object carrier length direction changes.Apply a side-play amount Y at object carrier 2 free ends, then produce the stress field of an axial nonlinear Distribution, thereby make birefringence uniform fiber grating 1 be converted into birefringence nonlinearly chirped fiber grating 3, two kinds of situations are arranged when applying side-play amount, a kind of is that grating is produced racking strain, grating is diminished in axial Bragg period everywhere, and a kind of is that grating is produced stretching action, makes grating become big in axial Bragg period everywhere.A key character of this grating is that its DGD is adjustable, because, produce axial non-linear stress distribution ε (z) by changing the free-ended side-play amount of object carrier, and then dynamic adjustments grating DGD.
In one of the high birefringence uniform fiber grating complete PMD compensator structure, the feedback signal probe unit, the feedback control structure of compositions such as control module and Polarization Controller is by the extensive a kind of mode of approval of numerous researchists.Content keypoint of the present invention is at the variable time delay line structure 4 based on uniform fiber grating.Another content of this invention is: connect one section at the c of circulator 6 end and have a specific DGD value τ FixPolarization maintaining optical fibre or birefringece crystal 7, when connecting, adopt a Polarization Maintaining Optical Fiber Fusion Splicer or an additional polarization rotator 11 to guarantee that its PMD vector is opposite with fiber grating PMD direction vector.Its objective is the DGD range of adjustment that is used to change this variable time delay line structure 4, i.e. minimum value and maximal value.Birefringence uniform fiber grating 1 has an initial value DGD value τ 0, non-linear stress has determined the amplitude of accommodation Δ τ of DGD.Can know that this variable time delay line DGD range of adjustment is (τ 0Fix, τ 0Fix+ Δ τ), if make τ Fix0, it is dynamically adjustable continuously that then this variable time delay line structure 4 can be implemented in (0, Δ τ) scope.
The implementation method of described PMD compensator based on the high birefringence uniform fiber grating may further comprise the steps:
First selects common polarization maintaining optical fibre (can be structures such as panda type, knot type, D type) or mixes the photosensitive polarization maintaining optical fibre of germanium and hydrogen carries.Major parameter is little according to being that the birefringence of polarization maintaining optical fibre or bat are grown up when selecting optical fiber, because birefringence big more (little) is promptly clapped long more little (greatly), the initial DGD value of the fiber grating that writes on it is big more (little) just, and the range of adjustment of correspondence is with regard to big more (little).Utilize ultraviolet to write technology, this section polarization maintaining optical fibre is carried out ultraviolet by even phase mask plate write grating, form dielectric grid uniform fiber grating 1.
Second adopts curing glue such as ultraviolet glue or alternate manner that this grating is adhered on the object carrier 2 that a width changes along its length.Object carrier 2 one ends are fixed, and an end is free state.The free end side-play amount is regulated can be by stepping, raise the clothes motor or have voltage-strain-responsive characteristic material, carry out as piezoelectric ceramics etc. automatically controlled, thereby strain is regulated to optical grating axial.
The 3rd links to each other this optical grating construction with one or three end circulators, 6 port b, and connects Polarization Controller before circulator 6 port a, and the c end utilizes to be protected inclined to one side heat sealing machine and connect one section polarization maintaining optical fibre or birefringece crystal 7 with suitable DGD value, is used for the adjustment of DGD variation range.Adopt a Polarization Maintaining Optical Fiber Fusion Splicer or an additional polarization rotator 11 to guarantee that its PMD vector is opposite with the PMD direction vector of fiber grating during connection.
The 4th selects feedback signal, and the software and hardware part of design control module is carried out encapsulation process, can constitute the described PMD compensator based on the high birefringence uniform fiber grating of this invention.
Major advantage of the present invention is: adopted and made the high birefringence uniform fiber grating simple, that yield rate is high, cheap, but not needed expensive nonlinear phase mask plate, and made the high birefringence nonlinearly chirped fiber grating complicated, that technological requirement is high.The piezoceramic material that can adopt stepper motor, raise the clothes motor or have voltage-strain-responsive characteristic object carrier free end skew carries out side-play amount control.
