Description

Multifrequency is surveyed Optical Time Division Multiplexing coherent light time domain reflection appearance method and apparatus
Technical field:
The present invention relates to a kind of optical communication line that is used for optical fiber is characterized and fault location, amplify the coherent light time domain reflection appearance of submarine communication cable health monitoring in particular for long distance, many relayings.
Background technology:
At present, commercial coherent light time domain reflection (COTDR) appearance all uses the single mode narrow linewidth detecting optical pulses, and the signal of telecommunication that coherent detection produces is single intermediate-freuqncy signal, and the power through detecting this intermediate-freuqncy signal can obtain the health status of fibre circuit over time.Under specific pulsewidth condition, its dynamic range can promote through the average time that increases pulse peak power or increase data, but peak power receives the restriction of fiber nonlinear effect.Because the Photoelectric Signal Processing module of commercial system only is that an intermediate-freuqncy signal is handled, like this, for the monitoring of the optical cable communication line of growing distance, such as 12000 kilometers trans-oceanic extra large cable, the systematic survey time then can reach several hours.Because the COTDR system surveys light and uses the LASER Light Source of live width less than 10kHz, this flashlight that has just caused surveying between the Rayleigh scattering unit of light in tested optical fiber has extremely strong coherence, thereby causes relevant rayleigh noise.Relevant rayleigh noise can cause the big ups and downs of detective curve, thereby influence is to the identification of optical communication line case point.For eliminating relevant rayleigh noise and increasing the dynamic range of measuring, the most frequently used way is exactly to increase to measure and average number of times, and the detective curve of COTDR generally is 2 16Inferior measurement result average reaches 2 sometimes 18Inferior or higher.
The performance evaluation of COTDR has three important parameters: dynamic range, spatial resolution and Measuring Time.Mainly detection of optical power is measured with increase and average number of times is realized through promoting in the lifting of dynamic range.But because the particularly restriction of stimulated Brillouin scattering of nonlinear effect in the optical fiber, the detection of optical power that incides in the tested optical fiber should be lower than the excited Brillouin threshold value, so the lifting of system dynamics scope is restricted.Measurement spatial resolution mainly receives the restriction of detecting optical pulses width, shortens the detecting optical pulses width with room for promotion resolution, but can reduce the dynamic range of measurement.Through the mode of pulse code, can make measurement have big dynamic range and high spatial resolution simultaneously, but this can increase the time that system signal is handled sharp.In view of above-mentioned many restrictions, we the key that promotes the COTDR systematic function be placed on increase measure and average number of times on.Obviously, commercial at present increase measurement of COTDR system and average time can only be realized by increasing the time of measuring.Wanting is not the measurement effect that cost obtains to sacrifice Measuring Time, and only way is the measuring speed of elevator system.
The research Japan NTT Masatoyo Sumida of company about promoting COTDR systematic survey speed had the experiment report in 1996.It is to utilize the injection current of control distributed Blatt reflective formula (DBR) laser to change the detection light frequency, obtains the detecting optical pulses sequence of different frequency through SECO.Survey light and be essentially frequency pulse, just detection of optical power be constant and the time continuous, but its frequency then is time-discrete.Survey backscattering and/or the reflected signal and the local oscillator light of single-frequency relevant generation a plurality of different intermediate-freuqncy signals of light frequency pulse in tested optical fiber; The corresponding drive test amount of intermediate-freuqncy signal; The corresponding curve of multichannel intermediate-freuqncy signal finally synthesizes one the tunnel, and measuring speed is multiplied.So, the Photoelectric Signal Processing module of this scheme, behind a plurality of bandpass filterings, the parallel processing data, and then synthesize one road signal output through accumulator.Experimental result shows that this method can reduce the decline noise of detective curve apace, promotes signal to noise ratio.But this method is surveyed light, and constantly can only there be a frequency in each, and to the extra circuit design of control needs of laser, the controlled-precision system circuit hardware of control and the Effect on Performance of laser own are very big.In addition, the local oscillator light of this scheme appears at the last of a pulse train cycle, therefore, certainly leads to the blind area of bringing because of the design defective.
