Description

Branch optical fiber fault detection method, device and fiber optic network in the fiber optic network
Technical field
The embodiment of the invention relates to technical field of optical fiber communication, relates in particular to branch optical fiber fault detection method, device and fiber optic network in a kind of fiber optic network.
Background technology
Time division multiplexing (Time Division Multiplexing, hereinafter to be referred as: TDM) EPON (Passive Optical Network, hereinafter to be referred as: PON) by local side apparatus optical line terminal (Optical Line Termination, hereinafter to be referred as: OLT), remote equipment optical network unit (OpticalNetwork Unit, hereinafter to be referred as: ONU) and Optical Distribution Network (Optical DistributionNetwork, hereinafter to be referred as: ODN) form, wherein ODN mainly is devices such as optical fiber and optical splitter splitter, and concrete can comprise one-level optical splitter or more multistage optical splitter.
The general instrument of detection fiber network failure is optical time domain reflectometer (Optical Time DomainReflectometer, hereinafter to be referred as: OTDR), the basic principle of OTDR is by pulse generator control laser, the pulse of emission optical tests receives the information of returning at the OTDR port then and carries out in optical fiber.When light pulse is transmitted, can produce scattering, reflection owing to character, connector, junction point, bending or other similar incident of optical fiber itself in optical fiber.Wherein Yi Bufen scattering and reflection will turn back among the OTDR.The useful information that returns is measured by the detector of OTDR, from transmitting signals to the used time of inverse signal, determines the speed of light in optical fiber again, just can carry out distance calculation, specifically can see following formula:
d=(c*t)/2(I OR)
Wherein c is a light speed in a vacuum, I ORBe optical fibre refractivity, c/I ORBe exactly the speed that light transmits in optical fiber, and t is that signal emission back is to the total time that receives signal (round trip) (it is exactly the distance of one way that two values multiply each other after 2).
OTDR uses Rayleigh scattering and Fresnel reflection to characterize the characteristic of optical fiber.Wherein Rayleigh scattering is to form owing to light signal produces irregular scattering along optical fiber, and a part of scattered light of OTDR port is got back in the OTDR measurement.These backscatter signals have just shown decay (loss/distance) degree that is caused by optical fiber.Because through all losses to some extent of signal of emission and backscattering after the transmission of a segment distance, what therefore measure is a curve that track is downward, it has illustrated that the power of backscattering constantly reduces.
Fresnel reflection is caused by the indivedual points in the whole piece optical fiber in addition, and these points are made up of the factor that causes reverse parameter to change, for example the gap of optical fiber and air.On these aspects, have very strong back-scattering light and be reflected, Fresnel reflection is much bigger than the Rayleigh reflection, about general big 50db, just 100000 times.Therefore, OTDR utilizes the information of Fresnel reflection to be located by connecting a little usually, fibre-optic terminus or breakpoint.
In other words, the operation principle of OTDR just is similar to a radar.It earlier sends a signal to optical fiber, and what information is observed then and a bit returns what come from certain is.This process can repeatedly be carried out, and then these results is averaged and shows that with the form of track this track has just been described the power (or state of optical fiber) of signal in whole section optical fiber.
General Definition two class incidents in the OTDR system: reflection event and decay incident, so-called reflection event, the reflex that causes owing to reasons such as fibercuts, optical fiber terminal point or connectors embodies the reflection spike on the OTDR test curve exactly; So-called decay incident, be exactly reason such as fibre-optical bending cause have only decay, do not have the phenomenon that obviously reflects spike.
OTDR is applied in the PON system, divide fault location and on-line testing two classes, the former generally is that fault has appearred in network, the staff goes to locate concrete fault with OTDR, the latter generally is always in the connecting system, by system's control cycle or Event triggered remove the test monitoring fiber optic network.In theory can be at the OTDR of access Anywhere of fiber optic network equipment, but the OTDR apparatus expensive is above-mentionedly gone into an OTDR at the OLT side joint, promptly can cooperate with network management system, also realizes that by the optical switch mode multichannel OLT shares an OTDR easily.But, mainly there is following problem in above-mentioned testing scheme, and the one, the decay of Splitter is very big, the test pulse of OTDR is through after the splitter, light intensity very a little less than, the trimmed book that reflects comes just very little, the energy that returns OTDR through splitter is littler, very difficult the detection.Industry best OTDR now also is difficult to detect 1: 16 optical splitter back branch optical fiber decay incident, because this moment, signal was submerged in the noise fully.Because reflection events such as disconnected fibres, the reflection of reeflectance ratio Rayleigh is much bigger, and reflection coefficient is relevant with the evenness of profile of optic fibre, and is more smooth, reflect big more, with regard to easy more detection.The 2nd, OTDR is the catoptrical size of test, and test pulse enters each branch optical fiber through after the splitter, and light pulse all can be reflected in any optical fiber, so the reflection that OTDR measures is actually the stack of each branch optical fiber reflection.That is to say that even OTDR has found the reflectance anomaly point, also being difficult to judge is which root branch optical fiber is out of order.
In realizing process of the present invention, the inventor finds that there are the following problems at least in the prior art: for the fiber optic network that is connected with a plurality of branch optical fibers, can't accurately judge the branch optical fiber that breaks down in the prior art.

Embodiment
For the purpose, technical scheme and the advantage that make the embodiment of the invention clearer, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the invention, technical scheme in the embodiment of the invention is clearly and completely described, obviously, described embodiment is the present invention's part embodiment, rather than whole embodiment.Based on the embodiment among the present invention, those of ordinary skills belong to the scope of protection of the invention not making the every other embodiment that is obtained under the creative work prerequisite.
At problems of the prior art, a kind of feasible solution is that light boundary device (Fiber demarcation Device is set respectively on each branch optical fiber, hereinafter to be referred as: FDD), and require each FDD unequal apart from the position of OLT, overlapping with the reflection peak of avoiding on OTDR, measuring, in the measuring process of reality, if the FDD on each branch optical fiber is owing to have very big reflection to the OTDR wavelength, just there is a tangible reflection peak position of their correspondences on the OTDR curve, as long as certain reflection peak also exists, the branch optical fiber that then shows this FDD correspondence is no problem, the influence that the fiber lengths that this solution can be brought by variation such as ambient temperature easily changes.The embodiment of the invention provides a kind of fiber optic network, Fig. 1 is the structural representation of fiber optic network embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 1, this fiber optic network comprises fiber optic network node 1 and the plural branch optical fiber 2 that is connected with this fiber optic network node 1, comprise plural reflecting surface 3 respectively at each branch optical fiber 2, if the number of reflecting surface is three when above, spacing between the reflecting surface equates, and the spacing between the reflecting surface is unequal on the different branch optical fiber.On above-mentioned each branch optical fiber more than two, equally spaced reflecting surface constitutes an optical fiber boundary device FDD.
The above embodiment of the present invention is provided with reflecting surface on each branch optical fiber, and the spacing between the reflecting surface on the different branch optical fiber is unequal, for ease of describing, below uses L respectively n(n=1,2, the 3...) spacing between the adjacent reflecting surface on the different branch optical fibers of expression.When being L to spacing of reflecting plane 1Branch optical fiber with 2L 1/ V is that the signal of the reflection on the branch optical fiber between former and later two reflectings surface can produce stack, and forms with L when the time cycle sending the fault test pulse signal 1Be the reflection peak in cycle, wherein, V is the light velocity of fault test pulse signal in described branch optical fiber.And for other branch optical fiber, because the spacing between its reflecting surface is not equal to L 1, therefore can not produce the reflection peak that superposes by reflected signal as mentioned above.
Though should be appreciated that the foregoing description is with 2L 1/ V sends the fault test pulse signal time cycle, but this fault test signal can also be that integral multiple with this time cycle sends in the practical application, is the generation reflection peak that transmits by the reflecting surface with certain intervals at this moment.In the case, can further consider that the spacing of reflecting plane on the different branch optical fibers is set to non-integral multiple relation, on different branch optical fibers, all produce reflection peak to avoid same fault test pulse signal.Under general situation, only need make unequal the getting final product of spacing between the reflecting surface on the different branch optical fibers, can distinguish different branch optical fibers by selecting the suitable fault test pulse signal transmission cycle.
In sum, the fiber optic network that the above embodiment of the present invention provides by sending the fault test pulse signal with the suitable cycle, can be realized branch optical fiber fault in the fiber optic network is accurately detected.
FDD in the above embodiment of the present invention on each branch optical fiber identifies branch optical fiber by the characteristics of itself, and above-mentioned FDD can comprise two or more reflectings surface, FBG or filter composition.Whole reflectings surface on each above-mentioned branch optical fiber can be the part Transflective face of signal of communication, and the fault test pulse signal that can use this moment with signal of communication has an identical wavelength carries out the fault measuring of branch optical fiber.The reflecting surface apart from the optical network node far-end on each branch optical fiber can also be the fully reflecting surface of fault test pulse signal in addition, and can use the fault test pulse signal that is different from the signal of communication wavelength to carry out the fault measuring of branch optical fiber this moment.
The fiber optic network node is OLT in the foregoing description in addition, described fiber optic network can also comprise OTDR, OTDR can be provided with respectively with OLT, also OTDR can be built among the OLT, respectively can be as shown in Figures 2 and 3, Fig. 2 has provided the system configuration schematic diagram of external OTDR in conjunction with the online fault detect of FDD on each branch optical fiber, the initial trunk optical fiber of OLT connects a plurality of branch optical fibers by optical splitter splitter, be connected with ONU at each branch optical fiber end, each branch optical fiber is provided with the FDD that constitutes with the equal intervals reflecting surface by two; OTDR among Fig. 3 is built among the OLT.
In the above embodiment of the present invention, the spacing L between last two reflectings surface of the FDD of each branch optical fiber 1, L 2, L 3... L nUnequal, and it can further be set for non-integral multiple relation, for example can be respectively 3m, 5m, 7m, also can be 0.3m, 0.5m, 0.7m.Minimum spacing between the reflecting surface depends on the resolution of OTDR.
Corresponding with above-mentioned fiber optic network embodiment, the present invention also provides a kind of fault detection method, and Fig. 4 as shown in Figure 4, comprises the steps: for the schematic flow sheet of branch optical fiber fault detection method embodiment in the fiber optic network of the present invention
Step 101, with default be time cycle branch optical fiber transmission fault test pulse signal to be tested in fiber optic network;
Wherein, described fiber optic network can comprise plural branch optical fiber, each branch optical fiber comprises plural reflecting surface, if the number of reflecting surface is three when above, the spacing between the reflecting surface equates, and the spacing between the reflecting surface is unequal on the different branch optical fiber.
Step 102, detect whether to receive to the cycle be the reflection peak of 1/2 preset time period; Wherein said reflection peak is that the transmit stack of periodic fault test pulse signal on the different reflectings surface of branch optical fiber generates.
Step 103, if receive described reflection peak, then confirm branch optical fiber fault-free to be tested, if do not receive described reflection peak, then confirm branch optical fiber fault to be tested.
Branch optical fiber fault detection method in the fiber optic network that present embodiment provides, it is detection method at fiber optic network with plural branch optical fiber, and each branch optical fiber comprises plural reflecting surface, spacing on the different branch optical fibers between the reflecting surface is unequal, send the fault test pulse signal to branch optical fiber to be tested with the default time cycle, the above-mentioned default time cycle can be 2N * L n/ V wherein N is positive integer and can gets N=1 that in specific embodiment V is the light velocity in described branch optical fiber of fault test pulse signal, L nBe the spacing between adjacent two reflectings surface on the fiber optic tap to be measured.After sending above-mentioned fault test pulse signal, be L for being provided with spacing in the fiber optic network to fiber optic network nThe branch optical fiber of reflecting surface, wherein spacing distance is N * L nThe reflected signal of reflecting surface can superpose, form reflection peak; And, then can not form described reflection peak for other branch optical fiber.Therefore present embodiment can be measured different branch optical fibers respectively by send the mode of test pulse with the different cycles, realizes the branch optical fiber in the fiber optic network is carried out fault detect exactly.
In addition, when the reflecting surface that is provided with on the branch optical fiber is the part transmission plane of signal of communication wavelength, can use the fault test pulse signal that has identical wavelength with signal of communication.
Fig. 5 or Fig. 6 have provided FDD reflection superimposed curves schematic diagram in the specific embodiment of the invention, when concrete identification branch optical fiber fault, can be by the OTDR that is built among the OLT, or divide the OTDR be arranged by sending a plurality of pulses in certain hour cycle with OLT, the above-mentioned time cycle can with the spacing proportion relation of reflecting surface on each branch optical fiber, so that under the less situation of the emission ratio of first reflecting surface of FDD, do not need to consider the interreflection between each reflecting surface, on OTDR, can see the reflection peak of some cycles.
When for example Figure 5 shows that the fault of detection branches optical fiber 1, the spacing on this branch optical fiber between the reflecting surface of FDD1 is L 1, OTDR is with time cycle 2L 1/ V sends a string fault test pulse signal, and (spacing of each test pulse on branch optical fiber of this signal is 2L 1When the 1st pulse arrives first reflecting surface, some reflection, a part of transmission is launched when the part of its transmission reaches through the 2nd reflecting surface, when reflected signal arrives with first reflecting surface, the 2nd pulse of OTDR also arrived the 1st reflecting surface and reflected, and above-mentioned two reflected signals stack has just become first reflection peak, by that analogy, just can obtain the reflection peak that a string cycle is L1.Be 2L owing to the cycle simultaneously 1The test pulse of/V by other cycles in other branch optical fibers (being that spacing of reflecting plane is other values) FDD and when being reflected, because spacing of reflecting plane is not corresponding with above-mentioned test pulse among the FDD of described other branch optical fibers, therefore can only individual reflection, the stack of test pulse reflection peak also just can not form L well before and after can not forming 2, L 3... L nIn any one periodic reflection peak.
Equally as shown in Figure 6, for detect the 2nd branch optical fiber whether fault (cycle of its FDD2 is L 2), OTDR is with 2L 2/ V is the fault test pulse signal that sends the time cycle, and just can obtain a string cycle is L 2Reflection peak.
From above-mentioned whether two branch optical fibers are broken down the embodiment that tests as can be seen, OTDR can be with 2L n/ V sends a string test pulse the time cycle, can detection branches optical fiber on the FDD cycle be L nBranch optical fiber whether fault is arranged.OTDR sends the test pulse of different cycles at different time, just can travel through to detect the different branch optical fibers of whole network whether fault is arranged.
Because each FDD correspondence is a string periodic reflection peak, and each is unequal the cycle, and can further set it and also do not become the multiple relation, even some FDD is the same to the distance of OLT so, its the 1st reflection peak is overlapping, but reflection peak is can be not overlapping thereafter.Just overlapping with certain one-level reflection peak of other certain FDD for certain one-level reflection peak of certain FDD in addition, other reflection peak of overlapping front and back can be not overlapping yet, promptly can't form periodic reflection peak.
In addition, the size of reflection peaks at different levels is relevant with the reflection coefficient of two reflectings surface, do not consider decay between the two-stage reflection and the interreflection (reflection coefficient is smaller) between the two-stage reflecting surface, suppose that first reflection coefficient is 0.1, transmission coefficient is 0.9, second reflecting surface reflection coefficient is 0.1 to be example, then the 1st grade is reflected into 0.1 (getting relative size), the 2nd grade of reflection peak is 0.1*0.9+0.1, third level reflection peak is 0.1*0.9*0.9+0.1, by that analogy, if consider repeatedly reflection between two reflectings surface, then what reflection peak of back can be higher, and reflection and transmission coefficient also can be designed as other values certainly.When the test wavelength that uses when test was the same with communication wavelengths, reflection coefficient can design forr a short time, allowed most of luminous power transmission, thereby minimizing is to the influence of proper communication Line Attenuation.
The embodiment of the invention also provides branch optical fiber failure detector in a kind of fiber optic network, this device can be carried out the process step of above-mentioned detection method embodiment, Fig. 7 is the structural representation of branch optical fiber failure detector embodiment in the fiber optic network of the present invention, as shown in Figure 7, this device comprises transmitter module 11 and detection module 12, wherein transmitter module 11 is used for sending the fault test pulse signal with the default time cycle to fiber optic network to be tested, described fiber optic network comprises plural branch optical fiber, each branch optical fiber comprises plural reflecting surface, if the number of reflecting surface is three when above, spacing between the reflecting surface equates, and the spacing between the reflecting surface is unequal on the different branch optical fiber; Detection module 12 is used to detect the reflection peak whether cycle of receiving is 1/2 preset time period, if receive described reflection peak, then confirms branch optical fiber fault-free to be tested, if do not receive described reflection peak, then confirms branch optical fiber fault to be tested.
Branch optical fiber fault detection method in the fiber optic network that present embodiment provides, it is detection method at fiber optic network with plural branch optical fiber, and each branch optical fiber comprises plural reflecting surface, spacing on the different branch optical fibers between the reflecting surface is unequal, send the fault test pulse signal to branch optical fiber to be tested with the default time cycle, the above-mentioned default time cycle can be 2N * L n/ V wherein N is positive integer and can gets N=1 that in specific embodiment V is the light velocity in described branch optical fiber of fault test pulse signal, L nBe the spacing between adjacent two reflectings surface on the fiber optic tap to be measured.After sending above-mentioned fault test pulse signal, be L for being provided with spacing in the fiber optic network to fiber optic network nThe branch optical fiber of reflecting surface, wherein spacing distance is N * L nThe reflected signal of reflecting surface can superpose, form reflection peak; And, then can not form described reflection peak for other branch optical fiber.Therefore present embodiment can be measured different branch optical fibers respectively by send the mode of test pulse with the different cycles, realizes the branch optical fiber in the fiber optic network is carried out fault detect exactly.
When in specific implementation process, whole fiber optic network being carried out fault test, can comprise steps flow chart as described in Figure 8:
Step 201, FDD lay, and carry out laying of FDD on the point that different branch optical fibers need be demarcated.This separation can be the indoor section in the optical user Access Network and the separation of outdoor section, and the optical fiber of above-mentioned indoor section is responsible for by the user, and the optical fiber of outdoor section is responsible for by the provider customer, therefore need demarcate to it.In the time can receiving reflection peak, illustrate by OLT to the branch optical fiber fault-free the FDD.This step is the FDD that lays different cycles at different branch optical fibers, and for example the cycle of laying is L on branch optical fiber 1 1(be that spacing between the reflecting surface is L 1) FDD, the cycle of laying is L on branch optical fiber 2 2(be that spacing between the reflecting surface is L 2) FDD;
Step 202, with FDD and branch optical fiber or ONU binding, promptly on management system,, so that one one correspondence, and further set up corresponding mapping table the FDD of different cycles and corresponding branch optical fiber or ONU binding.
Step 203, OTDR send test massage n branch optical fiber are tested, and promptly whether the OLT of test branch optical fiber and the part between the FDDn have fault.Wherein the initial value of n can be made as 1, add up successively, and be L for example to the cycle 1Branch optical fiber 1 when testing, OTDR is with time cycle 2L 1/ V sends test pulse;
Step 204, OTDR receive the signal that reflects, and gather reflection peak information;
Step 205, on the basis of above-mentioned steps 204, analyze whether to receive corresponding reflection peak, to judge branch optical fiber whether fault is arranged.For example if the OTDR cycle of receiving is L 1Reflection peak, then illustrate on the branch optical fiber 1 by OLT to fault-free the FDDn, if OTDR does not receive reflection peak, can confirm is having fault by OLT to the FDDn on the branch optical fiber 1, and above-mentioned reflection peak is that the transmit stack of test pulse on the adjacent reflecting surface of branch optical fiber 1 generates.
After above-mentioned steps 205, can continue to return step 203 and continue to send test massage to other branch optical fibers, realize whether fault is judged between whole system each branch optical fiber FDD and the OLT.Such as, OTDR is with time cycle 2L 2/ V sends test pulse, when testing with branch optical fiber 2, by that analogy.
