Description

Make linearizing method of circuit conversion function and circuit
The present invention is relevant for a kind of linearizing method of circuit conversion function and circuit of making, relevant especially multichannel radio RF conversion of signals is laser diode translation function (transfer function) the linearizing method and the circuit of light signal, it is to utilize to preset distorted signal, and the method for the expection distortion in the compensation laser diode output signal improves the linear transformation function of circuit.
In the cable television system of today, need the television channel of larger amt.Typical cable television system comprises the television channel of 60 analog signals, but extends to 80 or more channel.
In an information superhighway system, a cable television system may need 132 or more digital signal channel, info-channel and telephone signal channel.Digital video, data and telephone signal all are modulated on the radio frequency carrier wave.Digital Video System then can be answered demand service (demandservices) and vision signal is provided.
Fiber optic transmission system is being used cause one cable TV transmitting terminal center (headend center) or at present by a call center, with information bearing to a fiber optic service site near the user.Fibre system must rely on the media of optical fiber as transmission.Among this type systematic, can use laser that radio frequency rf signal is converted into light signal, so that in optical fiber, transmit.
For the high fidelity that will guarantee information transmits, the translation function that the RF conversion of signals is become the Laser Devices of light signal must be linear.As if translation function is not linear, will produce harmonic distortion, intermodulation (inter-modulation) distortion between the then parallel channel, and multiple beat frequency phenomenons such as (multiple-beating), just can reduce the video quality of cable TV significantly.Unfortunately, the common neither problem that is enough to avoid distortion of the linear characteristic of the translation function of Laser Devices.
The linearization technique of laser translation function has been the problem that is studied for many years.These methods are usually all very complicated and to carry out cost quite high.The existing people's research of particularly linearizing optical fiber feed-forward technique (feedforward technique).A large portion reason of distortion is owing to work under saturation condition.In saturation condition following operating period, when the current potential of laser signal was higher, the light signal that comes from Laser Devices was lower than corresponding radio frequency rf signal.According to known method, adopt second Laser Devices to produce one according to a kind of known feed-forward technique and preset distortion (pre-distortion) light signal.This presets that the distortion light signal is added in the main light signal again so that compensate for laser part saturated.This kind compensation practice can play a role, but there are three major defects in this kind practice.At first, the wavelength of two laser signals need mate in advance.For example, if,, limited the linearisation effect in optical fiber just then two signals can be advanced with different speed owing to the cause of optical fiber scattering does not match two optical fiber.Secondly, preset in time and the independently change of output meeting of distorted signal and main laser signal, cause the non-linearization of not expecting.The 3rd, the use of multiple device is quite expensive, and the circuit of execution light feedforward is also quite expensive.Therefore, just having to provide a kind of simple in structure, low cost and the solution that presets distortion that is easy to implement.
Fig. 1 is based on one piece of paper of having delivered, wherein show the improvement of the translation function of a microwave amplifier, this piece paper is entitled as that " microwave SSB-AM system presets distortion non-linearities compensator (" Pre-distortion Nonlinear Compensator for Microwave SSB-AM System "); be published in NEC and communication (Electronics and COmmunications in Japan) by people such as Toshio Nojima; Vol.67-B; No.5, in 1984.As shown in Figure 1, the reduction amount of its expression distortion depends on the distorted signal that presets a distorted signal and an amplifier translation function, the amplitude between the two and the matching degree of phase place.Wherein must add amplitude adjustment and phase place and adjust circuit, minimize so that will preset the amplitude error and the phase error of the distorted signal of a distorted signal and an amplifier translation function.Paper according to narrow-band is used can adopt the accent of amplitude and the accent of phase place.
In broadband system, by the present invention, its frequency range is between 50Mhz to 750MHz, even up to 1000MHz.Such frequency extending range letter has covered 4 to 6 octaves.As well-known in the art, distortion is related with frequency.Can utilize one to preset distorted signal, amplitude adjustment relevant with frequency and phase place adjustment guarantee can make in the whole frequency range scope the enough significant reduction of distortion.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of utilization to preset method and circuit that the distortion compensation mode improves circuit linearisation translation function.
For achieving the above object, the present invention takes following measure:
The present invention adopts a kind of distortion circuit that presets, and revising the non-linear of laser or other electrical systems or device, it can produce and can compensate one of pending systematic distortion and preset distorted signal.According to the present invention, based on the signal compensation principle, this presets distorted signal, and the amplitude that its amplitude comes down to the distorted signal that produced with pending system equates, but phase place is opposite.According to the present invention, preset distorted signal and combine with primary signal, form and preset distorted signal.In one embodiment, presetting distorted signal is to be used to modulate a laser diode or an electrical system.Distorted signal has compensated because laser diode or the caused distortion of other Circuits System have stayed the signal such as the good quality of cable TV CATV image.
According to the present invention, the distortion in the laser signal be eliminated be since added one in selected frequency range scope its amplitude equal the amplitude of expecting distortion, phase place is opposite presets distorted signal.According to the present invention, lower the effect of distortion, depend on and preset distorted signal amplitude error and the phase error between the two that is produced in distorted signal and the system's conversion.Amplitude error is all relevant with frequency with phase error.According to the present invention, in order to produce the light signal that does not have error, as the amplitude curve that presets the distortion frequency function, cooperating phase place to adjust curve provides.
Convert the electrical signal to Laser Devices, can preset distorted signal according to the invention provides input for light signal.In a kind of application of CATV, Laser Devices utilize a direct current DC current offset to obtain a constant luminous power output.The CATV signal of RF frequency range is used for the modulated laser power output.With regard to linear transformation, the deviation of optical output power (P) is to form linear scale with CATV RF electric current (I).Translation function can be expressed as P=A 1I.If translation function is not linear, then translation function just can be expressed as a kind of Taylor series: P=A 1I+A 2I 2+ A 3I 3+ A 4I 4, A wherein 2I 2Be second-order distortion, and A 3I 3It then is third order distortion.
