For this reason, the light signal of differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) (DPSK) phase-modulation obtains more concern.This is because relative to OOK light signal, DPSK light signal not only has the improvement of 3dB in receiving sensitivity, has higher tolerance for optical fiber dispersion and nonlinear effect etc. simultaneously.But due to the employing of DPSK light signal is phase encoded format, is easy to be subject to impact that is linear and nonlinear phase noise, thus worsens the transmission performance of DPSK light signal.Linear phase noise comes from spontaneous radiation (ASE) noise etc. in phase-modulator and erbium-doped fiber amplifier, nonlinear phase noise be then originate from optical fiber based on Gordon-Mollenauer effect cause by the conversion of amplitude noise to phase noise.In order to suppress phase noise, the phase place regenerator amplified based on fiber phase sensitive parameter can be used to realize the phase place regeneration of DPSK light signal.In addition, optical fiber can transmission bandwidth probably have 300nm, in order to utilize transmission bandwidth large in monomode fiber to meet the demand of information capacity, the light carrier of the multiple different wave lengths with signal must be transmitted, the wavelength-division multiplex technique that Here it is has extensively adopted at present in same monomode fiber simultaneously.Therefore, while dpsk signal obtains more and more concern, WDM-DPSK signal greatly can improve the performance of optical fiber telecommunications system in future in application.

At present, the DPSK optical signal regenerator of researcher's design is all generally the four-wave mixing effect of the degeneracy based on interference ring structure.But this optical signal regenerator generally can only realize single-channel signal regeneration, is not suitable for wdm system, but also the impact of phase noise that the sound wave Brillouin scattering (GAWBS) of easily being guided causes, worsen the transmission performance of light signal.And the basic structure of general wdm optical signal phase place regenerator, as shown in Figure 1, comprise a WDM demodulation multiplexer and a WDM multiplexer, each channel branch road comprises a pump laser, image intensifer, phase-locked loop and two sections of high nonlinear dispersion shifted fibers, realizes phase place regeneration respectively to the light signal of each channel.This system configuration is complicated, and cost is high, is not suitable for practical application.

From Fig. 5, Fig. 6, Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, the dpsk signal light of two channels by before optical regenerator with by comparing after optical regenerator, the phase angle distribution of flashlight obviously reduces, and this illustrates that its phase noise all obtains obvious suppression.
It should be noted that, by regulating the direction of analyzer, selectivity can leach WDM-DPSK light or ideler frequency light, then pass through the residual pump light of the 3rd band pass filter filtering and spontaneous radiation (ASE) noise, thus obtain WDM-DPSK light or the ideler frequency light of regeneration.When leaching the WDM-DPSK light time, illustrating and achieving signal regeneration by the embodiment of the present invention; When leaching ideler frequency light, the function being achieved wavelength convert by the embodiment of the present invention is described.
The embodiment of the present invention is compared to the phase sensitive parameter amplifying signal regenerator of the four-wave mixing effect of the degeneracy based on interference ring structure, wdm system can be applicable to very easily, avoid the phase noise caused by the sound wave Brillouin scattering (GAWBS) of guided simultaneously, there is better signal regeneration performance; The embodiment of the present invention is compared to existing wdm optical signal phase place regenerator, and its structure is simple, and cost is lower, is very suitable for practical application.In addition, the embodiment of the present invention also has good function expansibility, can by multiple regenerator cascade, to realize better signal regeneration performance.
It should be noted last that, above embodiment is only in order to illustrate technical scheme of the present invention and unrestricted, although with reference to example to invention has been detailed description, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that, can modify to technical scheme of the present invention or equivalent replacement, and not departing from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention, it all should be encompassed in the middle of right of the present invention.
