Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of spacecraft optical transceiver components, and particularly relates to an output stable optical power control method for a spacecraft optical transceiver component.
Background
The optical transceiver module is a high-speed communication carrier designed based on photoelectric and electro-optical conversion principles. The method has the advantages of high communication speed, long transmission distance, good stability and the like, and is widely applied to the fields of enterprise networking, operator networks, cloud computing local area networks and the like at present.
With the continuous popularization and application of optical components in the aerospace field, the reliability and the service life of the optical components are greatly concerned by the industry. Whether the stable output light power can be obtained is an important index for measuring the service life and the reliability of the optical component.
Currently, the optical module (or called as optical module) used in the industrial field generally adopts a single control mode in the aspect of output optical power control, i.e. an APC (automatic power control) mode or an open-loop control mode. The two operation modes are both to maintain the stability of the output optical power by controlling the laser operation current, but are different in control mechanism. In the APC working mode, a closed-loop control system is formed among a laser (TOSA), a drive circuit and a feedback circuit, and the bias current of the laser is feedback-controlled by setting the working current of a backlight diode under the condition of preset parameters, so that stable optical power output is obtained. As shown in fig. 1. Under a long-time working state, in addition to the change of the environmental temperature, the self parameters of the backlight PD diode drift, and further the feedback circuit works abnormally (such as oscillation and overshoot), even fails. This directly affects the stability of the optical power delivered by the laser. Aiming at the fault phenomenon, the method of directly replacing the optical assembly is adopted in the industrial field for remedying, and in the aerospace field, particularly in an unmanned spacecraft, the optical assembly cannot be manually replaced, the replacement is limited by the influence of space environment and the convenience of replacement, and the replacement cost and the cost are difficult to bear. In addition, in the open-loop operation mode, the light emitting efficiency of the Laser Diode (LD) may decrease gradually with time and temperature, which in turn may cause the optical power output by the optical module to decrease. In order to compensate for this "aging" tendency, a temperature compensation method is usually adopted, i.e. a relationship between temperature and preset optical power is fitted in a full temperature working range, and an open-loop temperature compensation function is realized inside a microprocessor (or an upper computer). The problem that the fitting precision is different from the actual working condition is that how to accurately realize stable optical power output and the fitting precision control is required to be higher.
