Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is further detailed explanation.
As shown in Figure 1, distributed optical fiber Raman amplifier application is in fiber optic communication systems described.Transmission Fibers 1 connects with wavelength division multiplexer 2 input, and wavelength division multiplexer 2 is three fiber port devices, and its pumping input is connected with pumping laser group 5 output; Its signal output part 8 is connected with light splitting coupler 3, light splitting coupler 3 has two outputs, an output is for exporting the signal after amplification 9, and another output is connected with intelligent control system 4, and intelligent control system 4 controls the Kai Heguan of pumping laser group 5 by detection signal 10.
Concrete process is as follows: input optical signal 7 is forward transmission in Transmission Fibers 1, pump light 6 reverse transfer, flashlight 7 is exaggerated through Raman effect under the effect of pump light 6 in Transmission Fibers 1, flashlight after amplification enters into light splitting coupler 3 after wavelength division multiplexer 2, flashlight after amplification is divided into two bundles by light splitting coupler 3, one end that vast scale exports exports as output signal 9, one end that small scale exports enters intelligent control system 4 as detection signal 10, intelligent control system 4 utilizes detection signal 10 to judge, if the result judged illustrates to there is flashlight, then open pumping laser group 5, otherwise, then close pumping laser group 5.
As Fig. 2,3, shown in 4, main what describe is the operation principle of the specific embodiment of the invention.The on-line monitoring device of fiber Raman amplifier, comprise intelligent control system, intelligent control system comprises again frequencies of transmission 13, one, a tunable FP chamber photo-detector 14 and main control module 15, photo-detector 14 is outputed signal to after the sweep signal passage of FP chamber 13, photo-detector 14 is converted into the signal of telecommunication, re-sends to main control module 15.FP chamber 13 and photo-detector 14 can be encapsulated in a housing, also can individual packages.
Further, a kind of on-line monitoring way of fiber Raman amplifier, comprises the following steps:
Step 1, applying are tuned in FP chamber;
Step 2, monitor signal input monitoring device, FP chamber is carried out multichannel to monitor signal and is scanned simultaneously, scans a little frequency interval;
Step 3, according to scanning result, FP chamber exports the distribution of transmission spectrum intensity in time domain, and converts the signal of telecommunication to by photo-detector;
Step 4, main control module receive the signal of telecommunication, judge whether there is useful signal in main optical path, and control the unlatching of pumping laser group or close.
FP chamber applies tuning methods, such as: by heating; Or in FP chamber in-built electrical luminescent material, apply the curtage that continuously changes on electrooptical material; Or in FP chamber built-in magneto-optic memory technique, apply the magnetic field that continuously changes on magneto-optic memory technique.By continuously changing the refractive index of material, thus realize the output spectral line in the whole FP chamber of continuous tuning.
When there being signal to input in system, the optics FP chamber 13 set will be carried out multichannel to signal and be scanned simultaneously, wherein channel spacing is determined by optics FP chamber 13 itself, i.e. the Free Spectral Range FSR in FP chamber 13, by the input signal in playback system and ASE noise in scanning process.If system is single-wavelength working, in scanning process, when FP chamber 13 arbitrary through passage and input channel on time, then export stronger flashlight, and the scanning near signalling channel can only export faint ASE light, obtain like this in time-domain, having a unexpected increase through the strength signal in FP chamber 13; If system be multichannel situation and channel spacing is the same time, same, in scanning process, always have simultaneously multiple wavelength aim at FP chamber 13 through peak, export stronger flashlight, faint flashlight is then only detected in flashlight both sides, unlike, may can export multiple stronger peak value in time-domain in multichannel situation; If there is not flashlight, no matter for multichannel or single channel, be all export spontaneous emission light ASE, because spontaneous emission light is continuous and smooth among a small circle, there is not stronger peak value by the time spectral line obtained after the scanning of FP chamber, so just effectively can distinguish in light communication system whether flashlight is still only ASE light.
As shown in Figure 2, be principle schematic during channel alignment.Input signal light 100 is frequency signal waveform at equal intervals, apply tuning 19 on optics FP chamber 13, at time t1 point, equally spaced series of wavelengths is aimed at and exports light 171, output light 171 enters photo-detector 14 and is converted into the signal of telecommunication 16, with reference to time t1 in figure 5 and t3 time point, this strength signal can be delivered to main control module 15.Judge that main optical path there is flashlight, export and open pumping laser group signal 11.
As shown in Figure 3, be principle schematic during passage misalignment.Display departs from input channel interval during when being tuned at t2 time point, obtain ASE light intensity and export light 172, with reference to t2 point light intensity in figure 5, be converted to electrical signal transfer equally to main control module 15, main control module 15 is by the distribution map 5 of transmitted light intensity in time-domain, judge that main optical path there is flashlight, export and open pumping laser group signal 11.
Be all the ASE light time when there is not flashlight in light path, as shown in Figure 4, what the result of scanning obtained is export spectral line in the intensity that time-domain is smooth, as shown in Figure 6, now judges that light path no signal light exists, output closedown laser pumping signal 11.
Above scanning process repeats, and scanning frequency gap length can be changed by software.
Although specifically show in conjunction with preferred embodiment and describe the present invention; but those skilled in the art should be understood that; not departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention that appended claims limits; in the form and details the present invention is made a variety of changes, be protection scope of the present invention.
