Description

Optical fiber amplifier for signal receiving and transmitting integration
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of optical fiber amplifiers, and particularly relates to a high-isolation receiving and transmitting integrated optical fiber amplifier.
Background
The optical fiber amplifier is a special device widely used in space laser communication system, which utilizes the gain optical fiber doped with rare earth ions pumped by a semiconductor laser, when the input optical signal passes through the gain optical fiber, the optical amplification is obtained due to the stimulated radiation effect, and the power is improved.
In the field of space laser communication, in order to save cost, two optical fiber amplifiers are often adopted to respectively perform optical amplification on a transmitting-receiving optical path. If the excitation optical signal and the return optical signal of the measured object are transmitted through one optical Fiber port, a new requirement is put on an EDFA (Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier): the EDFA has a bidirectional amplification function; the optical path design takes into account miniaturization issues. In this case, if the optical fiber amplifiers of the multi-output are simply combined for use, heat is collected, power consumption is increased, and further, the output power is decreased, and the service life of the optical fiber amplifier is affected. In addition, the space laser communication (laser communication link between satellites, the earth or the foundation) is a long-distance weak energy detection system, the intensity of signals received by communication is very weak, the energy of emitted light beams is very strong, the power difference between the two can reach more than 90dB, the power of emitted light exceeds 36dB, and the weak signals of the received light are usually below-50 dB, so that high isolation between emission and reception is needed, otherwise the emitted light can reach a communication or capture receiver after being reflected or scattered by an optical element, which has a serious influence on the signals, even directly annihilates the received signals, which causes the influence of the emitted light path on the received light path due to the system failure to work normally, and the problem also restricts the large-scale application of the optical fiber amplifier integrated with signal transceiving in the narrow space in the space laser communication system, such as Chinese patent, the notice number is: the CN212162322U patent is named as bidirectional fiber amplifier, and designs a bidirectional fiber amplifier, which only solves the problem of bidirectional amplification from the design point of view, but does not solve the problem that the system fails due to the serious influence of strong signal crosstalk noise on the system when the two optical power aberrations are too large.
At present, two schemes capable of solving the problem of transmitting and receiving isolation mainly exist, namely a wavelength light splitting scheme and a polarization light splitting scheme, and the two schemes are completed by using a complex optical path in an optical system. The wavelength light splitting scheme is that two light beams are separated through an interference light splitting sheet according to the difference of the wavelengths of the light beams to be transmitted and received, certain modulation and demodulation technologies require communication in a specific frequency band, the wavelength interval of the frequency band is narrow, wavelength light splitting is difficult to use for separation, and wavelength light splitting is difficult to use. In the polarization splitting scheme, the polarization states of the transmitting light beam and the receiving light beam are orthogonal, and the polarization beam splitter can be used for completing the separation of the transmitting light beam and the receiving light beam. However, the existing polarization splitting scheme is difficult to realize higher transmit-receive isolation (generally lower than 60dB), for example, chinese patent, publication number is: the patent name of CN107124228A is 'a method for separating the light beam with the same frequency as the transmitting and receiving of space laser communication signal light with high precision', but the transmitting and receiving energy difference can reach over 100dB in the long-distance communication, the stray light energy is 40dB higher than the signal energy, and the long-distance communication requirement can not be satisfied. In addition, the problem that the working mode needs to be switched on track due to different polarization states of the transmitted and received light beams of the existing transmitting and receiving common-frequency laser communication optical path during networking communication exists.

The 2 ports of the optical circulator are responsible for transmitting 1562nm light and receiving 1538nm light, and we design a first fiber bragg grating FBG1 at the 2 ports, as shown in fig. 2, which is a schematic diagram of a fiber bragg grating FBG1 for double-pass filtering according to the present invention; the grating period is lambda/(4 n)1)+λ/(4*n2) Two cavities with length of lambda/(2 x n) are introduced into the grating2) (wherein λ 1550 nm; n is1,n2Respectively represent refractive index, n2>n1,Δn=n2-n1And deltan is typically less than 0.03). Mode splitting will occur after the two cavities are coupled, with high transmission of light of two wavelengths above 96% and high reflection of the remaining light (99%). The wavelength of the two-pass filter is tuned by adjusting the coupling coefficient by changing the distance of the two cavities (the coupling coefficient is inversely proportional to the distance of the two cavities).
According to the coupling mode theory:

The fiber bragg grating has a high transmission for light at the wavelengths of these two modes and the remaining light is highly reflected (99%).

FIG. 3 shows the filter characteristics of the double pass filtered fiber Bragg grating FBG1 according to the present invention; the high transmission results of the fiber bragg grating FBG1 in this example at two wavelength bands 1562nm and 1538nm, respectively, after mode splitting of the two cavities are shown.
In some embodiments, the optical circulator is a three-port non-reciprocal optical element, and light can only propagate in one direction. If the signal enters from the 1 port, the signal is output from the 2 port, and if the signal is input from the 2 port, the signal is output from the 3 port, and the output loss is very small; when light is input from the 2 port, the loss is large when the light is output from the 1 port, and when the light is input from the 3 port, the loss is also large when the light is output from the 1 port and the 2 port, and the typical isolation degree of the common optical circulator is 40dB, and the minimum isolation degree is 35 dB. Thus, at the small signal receiving end (port of the optical circulator 3), the isolation of the high-power emergent light needs to be 65dB (meanwhile, the error rate of the signal light is ensured, and the side mode suppression ratio of the required signal to the noise is 10 dB). In order to solve the problem of high isolation, the invention designs a second fiber bragg grating FBG2 at the port of the optical circulator 3, as shown in fig. 4, a fiber core is axially engraved with a bi-periodic grating, and the period of the grating satisfies the phase matching condition. As shown in fig. 5, a small signal light (1538nm) emitted from the 2-port receiving 3-port receiving optical fiber has high transmittance along the fiber bragg grating FBG2, while a light of a high-power output light (1562nm) attenuated by the circulator has high reflectivity along the fiber bragg grating FBG2, the isolation of the second fiber bragg grating FBG2 to the light of 1562nm exceeds 55dB, and in order to ensure the error rate of communication, the side mode suppression ratio of the signal light to noise is more than 10dB, an optical fiber filter is further added in the reverse optical path to filter the light of 1562 nm.
The isolation of the optical system to the receiving and emitting light is realized in the optical fiber amplifier, wavelength light splitting is adopted under the condition that the optical fiber amplifier shares a receiving and transmitting port, the problem of on-track switching working modes caused by different polarization states of the receiving and transmitting light beams is avoided, the problem that the wavelength interval is short and the sorting is difficult is solved through the mode splitting of the coupling cavity of the double-pass filtering Bragg reflection grating, meanwhile, the high isolation requirement of the receiving and transmitting light is improved, a complex optical path is not required to be built, the optical system is simplified, and the stability and the integration degree of the optical system are improved.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like that fall within the spirit and principle of the present invention are intended to be included therein.
