技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种通信系统收发双工技术,尤其涉及一种高隔离度的微波光子环形器。The invention relates to a communication system transceiver duplex technology, in particular to a microwave photonic circulator with high isolation.

背景技术Background technique

收发双工功能是通信系统的重要功能之一,体现在实际应用中时,即要求通信系统既能将大功率的发射信号馈送至天线向外发送、又能将天线接收到的微弱信号耦合进来;为实现前述目的,就需要相应装置在发射大功率信号的同时,能够不受干扰地对微弱信号进行接收,也即要求通信系统具有较好的收发隔离度,如果收发隔离度不够好,发射的信号串入接收通道中,就可能会增加接收信号的误码率,影响整个通信系统的工作性能。The duplex function of sending and receiving is one of the important functions of the communication system. When it is embodied in practical applications, it is required that the communication system can not only feed the high-power transmission signal to the antenna for transmission, but also couple the weak signal received by the antenna. ; In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, it is necessary for the corresponding device to receive the weak signal without interference while transmitting the high-power signal, that is to say, the communication system is required to have a good transceiver isolation. If the transceiver isolation is not good enough, the transmission If the signal is serialized into the receiving channel, it may increase the bit error rate of the received signal and affect the working performance of the entire communication system.

现有技术中,用于实现收发双工功能的装置主要是基于电子技术的微波环形器,这种装置是利用铁氧体旋磁材料制成的,当微波信号通过旋磁材料时,会与旋磁材料中的自旋电子之间有充分的相互作用,在外加偏置磁场的诱导下会出现张量磁导率,从而发生偏振面旋转的现象,产生旋磁效应和各项异性;现有技术条件下制作出的微波环形器的隔离度指标有限,通常在20dB左右,并且现有微波环形器很难在较宽的工作带宽条件下获得较高的收发隔离度指标,无法满足工程界对通信系统日益严苛的应用需求。In the prior art, the device used to realize the duplex function of transmitting and receiving is mainly a microwave circulator based on electronic technology. This device is made of ferrite gyromagnetic material. When the microwave signal passes through the gyromagnetic material, it will interact with There is sufficient interaction between the spin electrons in the gyromagnetic material, and the tensor magnetic permeability will appear under the induction of the external bias magnetic field, so that the polarization plane will rotate, resulting in the gyromagnetic effect and anisotropy; now The isolation index of the microwave circulator produced under the technical conditions is limited, usually around 20dB, and it is difficult for the existing microwave circulator to obtain a high transceiver isolation index under the condition of a wide working bandwidth, which cannot meet the requirements of the engineering community. Increasingly demanding application requirements for communication systems.

所述相位解调单元的输出端与光电探测器的输入端连接,光电探测器的输出端与微波放大器的输入端连接,微波放大器的输出端形成微波光子环形器的接收信号输出端;The output end of the phase demodulation unit is connected with the input end of the photodetector, the output end of the photodetector is connected with the input end of the microwave amplifier, and the output end of the microwave amplifier forms the receiving signal output end of the microwave photonic circulator;

所述三端口微波环形器的输入端形成微波光子环形器的发射信号输入端,三端口微波环形器的输出端与阻抗匹配单元连接。The input end of the three-port microwave circulator forms the transmission signal input end of the microwave photonic circulator, and the output end of the three-port microwave circulator is connected with the impedance matching unit.

具体使用时,微波光子环形器的信号收发端与天线连接,微波光子环形器的发射信号输入端与前置处理装置连接,微波光子环形器的接收信号输出端与后级处理装置连接;本发明的原理是:During specific use, the signal transceiver end of the microwave photonic circulator is connected to the antenna, the transmitting signal input end of the microwave photonic circulator is connected to the pre-processing device, and the receiving signal output end of the microwave photonic circulator is connected to the post-processing device; the present invention The principle is:

装置工作过程中,激光器为铌酸锂单向相位调制器提供连续的光载波,基于现有理论可知,基于铌酸锂晶体的单向相位调制器能够利用铌酸锂晶体的电光效应,通过向行波电极施加微波信号来对光波导中的光信号的相位进行调制,但这种调制作用只有在微波场传输方向与光波导中光波传输方向相同的条件下才能起效,当微波场传输方向与光波导中光波传输方向相反时,微波场与光场的相速度失配严重,这时微波信号就无法对光波进行有效的调制,前述方案中限定了“A端口和条形波导的输入端均位于基底的左侧,B端口和条形波导的输出端均位于基底的右侧”以及“激光器的输出端与条形波导的输入端连接”,再结合铌酸锂单向相位调制器的典型结构可知,在本发明的铌酸锂单向相位调制器中,微波信号只有从A端口进入时,相应的微波场传输方向才与光波传输方向相同,当微波信号从B端口进入时,相应的微波场传输方向与光波传输方向相反,也即是说,只有从A端口进入的微波信号才能在铌酸锂单向相位调制器中对激光器输出的光载波起到调制作用,从B端口进入的微波信号不能在铌酸锂单向相位调制器中对激光器输出的光载波起到有效的调制作用;During the working process of the device, the laser provides a continuous optical carrier for the lithium niobate unidirectional phase modulator. Based on the existing theory, the unidirectional phase modulator based on the lithium niobate crystal can use the electro-optic effect of the lithium niobate crystal. The traveling wave electrode applies a microwave signal to modulate the phase of the optical signal in the optical waveguide, but this modulation can only take effect under the condition that the microwave field transmission direction is the same as the optical wave transmission direction in the optical waveguide. When the microwave field transmission direction When the transmission direction of the light wave in the optical waveguide is opposite, the phase velocity mismatch between the microwave field and the light field is serious. At this time, the microwave signal cannot effectively modulate the light wave. are located on the left side of the substrate, the B port and the output end of the strip waveguide are located on the right side of the substrate" and "the output end of the laser is connected to the input end of the strip waveguide", combined with the lithium niobate unidirectional phase modulator It can be seen from the typical structure that in the lithium niobate unidirectional phase modulator of the present invention, only when the microwave signal enters from the A port, the corresponding microwave field transmission direction is the same as the light wave transmission direction, and when the microwave signal enters from the B port, the corresponding The transmission direction of the microwave field is opposite to the transmission direction of the light wave, that is to say, only the microwave signal entering from the A port can modulate the optical carrier output by the laser in the lithium niobate unidirectional phase modulator, and enter from the B port The microwave signal cannot effectively modulate the optical carrier output by the laser in the lithium niobate unidirectional phase modulator;

工作过程中,当需要向外发送信号时,由前置处理装置生成的发射信号通过发射信号输入端进入微波光子环形器中的三端口微波环形器,三端口微波环形器将发射信号传输至B端口,发射信号经行波电极传输后通过信号收发端(即A端口)输出至天线并向外发送,在此过程中,发射信号不会对光波起到调制作用;接收信号时,天线接收到的微弱信号通过信号收发端(即A端口)进入行波电极,进入到行波电极的微弱信号就会对光载波起到调制作用,从而使条形波导的输出端能够输出调制后的光信号,相位解调单元对条形波导输出的光信号进行解调处理,然后由光电探测器和微波放大器进行光电转换和放大处理,最后传输给后级处理装置进行处理;During the working process, when a signal needs to be sent out, the transmission signal generated by the pre-processing device enters the three-port microwave circulator in the microwave photonic circulator through the transmission signal input port, and the three-port microwave circulator transmits the transmission signal to B Port, after the transmission signal is transmitted by the traveling wave electrode, it is output to the antenna through the signal transceiver terminal (namely A port) and sent out. During this process, the transmission signal will not modulate the light wave; when receiving the signal, the antenna receives The weak signal enters the traveling-wave electrode through the signal transceiver end (namely A port), and the weak signal entering the traveling-wave electrode will modulate the optical carrier, so that the output end of the strip waveguide can output the modulated optical signal , the phase demodulation unit demodulates the optical signal output by the strip waveguide, then performs photoelectric conversion and amplification processing by the photodetector and microwave amplifier, and finally transmits it to the post-processing device for processing;

本发明中的三端口微波环形器为背景技术中所述的传统微波环形器,其作用是用于连接阻抗匹配单元和B端口以及用于连接B端口和前置处理装置,这种三端口微波环形器的收发隔离度较差,但由于铌酸锂单向相位调制器的单向调制特性,在向外发送信号时,进入三端口微波环形器的发射信号只会串扰到阻抗匹配单元上,不会对光载波造成影响;当接收信号时,接收到的微弱信号会通过三端口微波环形器进入到阻抗匹配单元中,阻抗匹配单元就能根据微弱信号自适应地进行阻抗匹配。The three-port microwave circulator in the present invention is the traditional microwave circulator described in the background art, and its role is to connect the impedance matching unit and the B port and to connect the B port and the pre-processing device. This three-port microwave The transmit-receive isolation of the circulator is poor, but due to the unidirectional modulation characteristic of the lithium niobate unidirectional phase modulator, when the signal is sent out, the transmitted signal entering the three-port microwave circulator will only crosstalk to the impedance matching unit. It will not affect the optical carrier; when the signal is received, the received weak signal will enter the impedance matching unit through the three-port microwave circulator, and the impedance matching unit can adaptively perform impedance matching according to the weak signal.

为提高接收链路的线性度,本发明还提出了如下的优选方案:所述相位解调单元由光分路器、第一光滤波器和第二光滤波器组成;所述光分路器为单输入双输出模式,光分路器的两个输出端的分光比为1比1;条形波导的输出端与光分路器的输入端连接,光分路器的其中一个输出端与第一光滤波器的输入端连接,光分路器的另一个输出端与第二光滤波器的输入端连接;所述第一光滤波器和第二光滤波器中的一者能对输入的光信号进行正斜率的线性滤波处理,另一者能对输入的光信号进行负斜率的线性滤波处理;所述光电探测器采用双输入单输出的平衡探测器,第一光滤波器的输出端与平衡探测器的其中一个输入端连接,第二光滤波器的输出端与平衡探测器的另一个输入端连接,平衡探测器的输出端与微波放大器的输入端连接。光电探测器采用平衡探测器后,可以较好地抑制输出信号的共模噪声。In order to improve the linearity of the receiving link, the present invention also proposes the following preferred solution: the phase demodulation unit is composed of an optical splitter, a first optical filter and a second optical filter; the optical splitter It is a single-input double-output mode, and the splitting ratio of the two output ends of the optical splitter is 1:1; the output end of the strip waveguide is connected to the input end of the optical splitter, and one of the output ends of the optical splitter is connected to the second The input end of an optical filter is connected, and the other output end of the optical splitter is connected with the input end of the second optical filter; one of the first optical filter and the second optical filter can input the The optical signal is processed by linear filtering with positive slope, and the other can perform linear filtering processing with negative slope on the input optical signal; the photodetector adopts a balanced detector with dual input and single output, and the output end of the first optical filter It is connected with one input end of the balanced detector, the output end of the second optical filter is connected with the other input end of the balanced detector, and the output end of the balanced detector is connected with the input end of the microwave amplifier. After the photodetector adopts a balanced detector, the common mode noise of the output signal can be suppressed well.
