Explanation, and each embodiment does not constitute the restriction to the embodiment of the present invention.
A kind of elliptical polarization provided in an embodiment of the present invention keeps structure such as Fig. 1 institutes of the measuring device of optical fiber extinction ratio
Show, including wide spectrum light source (101), the polarizer (102), Polarization Controller (103), oval holding optical fiber (104) to be measured, polarization point
Analyzer (105) and computer (106).Wherein, one end of the output end connection polarizer (102) of the wide spectrum light source (101), rises
Inclined device (102) other end is connect with Polarization Controller (103) one end, Polarization Controller (103) other end and elliptical polarization to be measured
State keeps one end connection of optical fiber (104), elliptical polarization to be measured to keep the other end and polarization analysis instrument of optical fiber (104)
(105) input terminal connection, the polarization analysis instrument (105) record polarization state distributed data in poincare sphere, polarization analysis instrument
(105) output end connection computer (106), the computer (106) calculate elliptical polarization to be measured by computer and keep
The extinction ratio of optical fiber (105).
Fig. 2 is a kind of Computing Principle schematic diagram of extinction ratio provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention realizes that extinction ratio is surveyed
The principle of amount is as follows：
The traditional definition of one polarised light extinction ratio be two orthogonal linear polarization (directions x and the directions y) power it
The decibels of ratio,
RE=10lg (Px/Py) (1)
When evaluating the extinction ratio of optical fiber with this definition, need to input with a linearly polarized light, and measure this linear polarization
Optical output power PxWith the power Δ P for being coupled to another orthogonal linearly polarized lighty, formula (1) should then be changed to
RE=10lg (Px/ΔPy) (2)
However this definition still has certain limitation.First, the eigenstate of polarization of tested optical fiber is not necessarily linear polarization
State, it may be the different form such as circularly polarized light, elliptically polarized light, therefore above-mentioned definition is not suitable for elliptical polarization holding
Optical fiber.Secondly as mode coupling occurs at random, so, the Δ P in formula (2)yIt is a random number, is counted when long
Average is zero, therefore should use Δ PyMean square deviation indicate.Third, theoretically, a circular polarization state or elliptical polarization,
The directions x and the directions y can be transformed to by a fixed Polarization Controller, and extinction ratio does not change, so without must
It is however emphasized that must be two linear polarization power ratios.For this purpose, the present invention by the concept of extinction ratio from " two orhtogonal linear polarizaitons
The decibels for " two cross-polarization eigenstates " power ratio are expanded in direction ".Consider above-mentioned factor, the present invention proposes public
Formula (2) is rewritten as
RE=10lg (Pξ/ΔPη) (3)
In formula, PξFor the output power of an eigenstate of polarization of input optical registration, Δ PηTo be coupled to and above-mentioned polarization sheet
Levy the mean square deviation of the output power of another orthogonal eigenstate of polarization of state.
Under this definition, it is important to how to find two orthogonal eigenstate of polarization and their power.
Assuming that an ideal optical system, the polarization state of light source input areOutput polarization state isThen
M is the Muller matrix of the optical system.
Ideally, ifIt is stable with M, thenIt is also stable.Therefore, it shows as in poincare sphere
One point.The power of another polarization state orthogonal with it is 0, and thus according to above-mentioned definition, extinction ratio is infinity.
Under actual conditions,It is not stable with M.It is influenced by the various factors such as manufacturing defect and inappropriate application, than
If optical source wavelength changes, fibre-optical bending is squeezed, reverses and the influences such as temperature change, leads to fiber lengths L and refractive index n
Change, cause the variation of M, changes so as to cause output polarization state, show in poincare sphere it is no longer a point, but one small
Region.At this moment, no matter how we adjust input polarization, and it is a point that can not also make its concentration, can only collect one
The Stokes' parameter of group distribution：
In formula,It is the Stokes vector of different moments；Respectively 3 basic vectors of Stokes vector；s1
(t),s2(t),s3(t) it is respectively 3 Stokes' parameter amounts of changing with time.
In order to obtain extinction ratio information in this group of random number, first, present invention uses wideband light source and the polarizer, with
Just stable input polarization is obtained.Secondly, the present invention used in elliptical polarization to be measured keep optical fiber, it be by
The rotation that polarization-preserving fiber preform is controlled when wire drawing is drawn, and the ellipse synthesized after its local linear birefringence and rotation is two-fold
All very high, the birefringence caused by various enchancement factors is penetrated, is not only much smaller than the local birefringence of this optical fiber, but also much smaller than rotation
The ellipse birefringence synthesized afterwards, therefore influence of the environment to polarization state can be more effectively resisted than common polarization maintaining optical fibre, significantly
Improve the stability of output polarization state.Therefore, theoretically when input polarization is directed at the eigenstate of polarization of testing fiber, both
It is not the ideal point of a concentration, nor that extends endlessly tampers at random, but the random of certain Statistical Distribution is presented
Distribution.
The present invention uses
The assembly average for indicating polarization state, in formula, ＜ ＞ indicate average value, it can be being averaged for set
Value, can also be the average value for the time.Since the random process is stationary random process, so for the average value of set
Equal to the average value for the time.(6) formula shows the average value for Stokes vector, is equal to each Stokes' parameter
Average value vector sum.
Variance is used in combination
The dispersion degree for indicating polarization state distribution, in formula,Indicate the average value for vector modulus value square, i.e., Indicate the modulus value square of vector average value, i.e.,Formula (7) shows polarization state point
The variance of cloth is equal to the difference of the average value of vector modulus value square and the modulus value square of vector average value.
It it is easy to show that
In formula,The variance of respectively 3 Stokes' parameters, that is, total variance are equal to each stoke
The sum of this parameter variance.Because being Gaussian Profile for each Stokes' parameter, the amplitude of the vector of synthesis is then max
Wei is distributed.
Lead to the variation of polarization state because of mode coupling caused by various defects and interference, assembly average is when long
Zero.Therefore, if constantly regulate input polarization, when being adjusted to the random fluctuation minimum of output polarization state, that is, varianceWhen minimum, you can recognize Stokes vectorCorresponding polarization state
For the eigenstate of polarization of the testing fiber under the present situation.Corresponding power P0It is exactly the work(of the eigenstate of polarization
Rate Pξ。
In order to seek the power Δ P of another eigenstate of polarization caused by mode couplingη, referring to Fig. 2, it is assumed that statistical average
Polarization state corresponds to O points, and the point of other polarization states will surround O point random distributions, such as Fig. 2 (a).If the centre of sphere of poincare sphere is P,
The O points of great circle nearby randomly take a point A, cross PO and A points and do a great circle, obtain Fig. 2 (b).If PB is PA on PO
Projection, angle θ, then
PB=PAcos θ=cos θ (9)
PB is contributions of the random polarization state A for eigenstate of polarization O points, and OB is exactly caused by mode coupling and inclined
The size delta P of another orthogonal eigenstate of polarization of eigenstate of shaking O pointsη.So average inclined using the meansquaredeviationσ of OB as deviateing
The power variance of polarization state, and enable
Δ P=k σ (10)
Wherein k is the coefficient that is determined according to the requirement of confidence interval.Substituting into extinction ratio formula (3) can obtain
ER=-10lg (k σ) (11)
Elliptical polarization described in above-mentioned Fig. 1 is kept in the measuring device of optical fiber extinction ratio：
The wide spectrum light source (101) is worked in one by a semiconductor optical amplifier in spontaneous radiation state
The erbium-doped fiber amplifier cascade composition of spontaneous radiation state.
Ordinary optic fibre, a polarization splitting prism, the band that the polarizer (102) carries GRIN Lens by one
There is the linear polarization of GRIN Lens that optical fiber fabrication is kept to form；Wherein polarization splitting prism is the polarization spectro of a High Extinction Ratio
Prism can form the linearly polarized light of High Extinction Ratio after wide spectrum light source (101) is incident.
The Polarization Controller (103) be one manually fiber turns controller either one by piezoelectric ceramics to light
Fibre is squeezed to change the electric controller of polarization state.
Above-mentioned elliptical polarization keeps the fundamental measurement process of the measuring device of optical fiber extinction ratio to include：
By adjusting Polarization Controller (103), keep the polarization degree shown in polarization analysis instrument (105) poincare sphere maximum, i.e.,
More than the polarization degree threshold value of setting, and make input polarization consistent with the eigenstate of polarization of testing fiber (104).It is specific and
Speech adjusts the output that Polarization Controller so that elliptical polarization to be measured keeps optical fiber and polarizes inclined within identical a period of time
The area drawn on vibration analysis instrument reaches minimum, and optical fiber is kept using the averaged SOP on the area as elliptical polarization to be measured
Output light an eigenstate of polarization.
It keeps measuring environment constant, records this in poincare sphere of polarization state of the output light of testing fiber in a period of time
Stokes parameter, and thus calculate the luminous power P of the eigenstate of polarization of the output light of testing fiber in this period0Therewith
The meansquaredeviationσ of the output power of another orthogonal eigenstate of polarization, according to formula ER=10lg (P0/ k σ) calculate the length
Under extinction ratio, wherein k is the coefficient that is determined according to the requirement of confidence interval.
Find out the extinction ratio for cutting forward and backward testing fiber (104), the decibels of two extinction ratios respectively using cutback technique
Difference, the decibels difference are the extinction ratio decibels of this section of tested optical fiber (104).Wherein it is before avoiding testing fiber 104 from cutting
Afterwards with the variation of 105 jointing of polarization analysis instrument, measurement result accuracy is influenced to arrive, testing fiber 104 is cut front and back
Same fiber adapter is all made of with polarization analysis instrument 105 to connect.In the selection of adapter, selection is a kind of only to be squeezed using spring
The jacket portions of press polish fibre should ensure that the fiber adapter is applied to described wait for without squeezing a kind of adapter of bare fibre
The pressure very little surveyed on optical fiber does not influence the output polarization state of testing fiber.
When installing optical fiber using fiber adapter, the reduction is for the method for testing fiber pressure：It is being adapted to
Device is fixed at the extruding point of optical fiber, and a thin card is increased, and is made in the space that optical fiber be in spring pressuring plate and card is propped up, not by
It squeezes, and loosens spring pressuring plate repeatedly, observe polarization state variation in poincare sphere, if loosen reed, polarization state does not change,
Illustrate that spring pressuring plate does not cause to squeeze to testing fiber.
