Abstract

First, the wavelength multiplex (WDM) signal (Sμ1-8) is partially compensated in a common dispersion compensator (DCF0). The partially compensated WDM signal is divided into individual partially compensated channel signals (ST1-ST8) in a wavelength demultiplexer (2). These are converted into electrical signals and compensated in filters (F1 to F8).

Description

Beschreibungdescription
Anordnung zur kanalindividuellen Dispersionskompensation eines Wellenlängen-MultiplexsignalsArrangement for channel-specific dispersion compensation of a wavelength division multiplex signal
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung zur kanalindividuellen Dispersionskompensation eines Wellenlängen-Multiplexsignals nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an arrangement for channel-specific dispersion compensation of a wavelength division multiplex signal according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
In optischen Ubertragungssystemen mit hohen Datenraten ergibt sich bei längeren Übertragungsstrecken häufig die Notwendigkeit, die von der Dispersion der Übertragungsfaser verursachten Verzerrungen des Datensignals zu kompensieren. Beispielsweise wird durch die Dispersion bei einer Datenrate von 10 Gbit/s die Ubertragungslänge bei Standard-Monomoden-Fasern ohne Kompensation nicht wesentlich über eine Übertragungslänge von 100km hinausgehen. In Einkanalsystemen läßt sich die Dispersionskompensation entsprechend der anfallenden Dispersion durchführen. Bei Wellenlängen-Multiplexsystemen (WDM) treten jedoch für die einzelnen Kanalwellenlängen in der Regel unterschiedliche Dispersionswerte auf. Im Idealfall sollte für jeden Kanal eine individuelle Dispersionskompensation durchgeführt werden.In optical transmission systems with high data rates, there is often the need to compensate for the distortion of the data signal caused by the dispersion of the transmission fiber over longer transmission distances. For example, due to the dispersion at a data rate of 10 Gbit / s, the transmission length for standard monomode fibers without compensation will not significantly exceed a transmission length of 100 km. In single-channel systems, dispersion compensation can be carried out in accordance with the resulting dispersion. In wavelength division multiplex systems (WDM), however, different dispersion values generally occur for the individual channel wavelengths. Ideally, individual dispersion compensation should be carried out for each channel.
Standardlösungen zur Dispersionskompensation von WDM-Signalen sind in Figur 1 dargestellt. Zunächst erfolgt eine Vorkompensation durch eine dispersionskompensierende Faser DCF0 gemeinsam für alle WDM-Kanäle. Nach der Aufteilung eines empfangenen WDM-Signals Sλl-8 in einzelne teilkompensierte Ka- näle bzw. Signale STλl-STλ8 durch einen Wellenlängen (WDM) - Demultiplexer 2 erfolgt die Restkompensation beispielsweise durch eine dispersionskompensierende Faser DCF1, die an den Ausgang des WDM-Demultiplexers 2 angeschaltet ist. Eine Variante verwendet einen Zirkulator 4 mit einer dispersionskom- pensierenden Faser halber Länge DCFl/2, an deren Ende ein Reflektor R angeordnet ist. Die dispersionskompensierenden Fasern weisen bei gleicher Länge eine stärkere Dispersion als die Übertragungsfaser auf, jedoch mit anderem Vorzeichen. In der Regel gelingt mit einer bestimmten dispersionskompensierenden Faser nur die Kompensa- tion eines Ubertragungskanals exakt, d.h. die anderen betroffenen Kanäle sind nicht optimal kompensiert. Es wird zwar versucht, die dispersionskompensierenden Fasern entsprechend der Übertragungsfaser auszulegen. Das gelingt jedoch meist nur unzureichend, da sich nicht beliebige Verläufe der Dis- persion in Abhängigkeit von der Wellenlänge einstellen lassen und andererseits auch die verwendeten Übertragungsfasern Exemplarstreuungen aufweisen.Standard solutions for dispersion compensation of WDM signals are shown in FIG. 1. First of all, precompensation is carried out by a dispersion-compensating fiber DCF0 together for all WDM channels. After dividing a received WDM signal Sλl-8 into individual partially compensated channels or signals STλl-STλ8 by a wavelength (WDM) demultiplexer 2, the residual compensation takes place, for example, by means of a dispersion-compensating fiber DCF1, which is sent to the output of the WDM demultiplexer 2 is switched on. One variant uses a circulator 4 with a dispersion-compensating fiber half length DCFl / 2, at the end of which a reflector R is arranged. With the same length, the dispersion-compensating fibers have a greater dispersion than the transmission fiber, but with a different sign. As a rule, only one transmission channel can be exactly compensated with a certain dispersion-compensating fiber, ie the other channels concerned are not optimally compensated. An attempt is being made to design the dispersion-compensating fibers in accordance with the transmission fiber. However, this is usually unsuccessful, since it is not possible to set any course of the dispersion as a function of the wavelength and, on the other hand, the transmission fibers used also have specimen scatter.
In realisierten Systemen muß deshalb der Dispersions-Tole- ranzbereich der Empfänger zumeist so breit ausgelegt werden, daß sie auch Signale in unzureichend kompensierten Kanälen fehlerfrei detektieren können. Wenn die Restdispersionswerte der Einzelkanäle stärker voneinander abweichen, engt dies aber den Toleranzbereich erheblich ein.In realized systems, therefore, the dispersion tolerance range of the receivers usually has to be designed so broad that they can also detect signals in inadequately compensated channels without errors. If the residual dispersion values of the individual channels deviate more from each other, this considerably narrows the tolerance range.
Weiterhin können zusätzliche Signalverzerrungen durch nicht lineare Effekte der Übertragungsfaser den Toleranzbereich einengen. Der Hauptnachteil der vorstehend beschriebenen Möglichkeiten besteht darin, daß sie für realen Einsatz nur schwer praktikabel sind, da eine individuelle Kompensation schwer durchführbar ist.Furthermore, additional signal distortions due to non-linear effects of the transmission fiber can narrow the tolerance range. The main disadvantage of the possibilities described above is that they are difficult to practice for real use because individual compensation is difficult to carry out.
Eine weitere Variante verwendet ebenfalls einen Zirkulator 5, an dessen Mittleren Anschluß jeweils ein gechirptes (nicht gleichmäßiges) Fasergitter 6 angeschlossen ist. Diese Fasergitter werden mit bestimmten Dispersionswerten geliefert, die durch mechanisches Verspannen noch geringfügig geändert werden können. Ein wesentlicher Nachteil der gechirpten Fasergitter besteht in ihren Schwankungen des Phasenganges. Diese Schwankungen führen zu zusätzlichen Signalverzerrungen, welche die Vorteile der kanalselektiven Dispersionskompensation zum großen Teil wieder zunichte machen können. Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Anordnung zur Dispersionskompensation anzugeben, die eine kanalindividuelle Anpassung mit geringem Aufwand ermöglicht.Another variant also uses a circulator 5, to the middle connection of which a chirped (not uniform) fiber grating 6 is connected. These fiber grids are supplied with certain dispersion values, which can be changed slightly by mechanical tensioning. A major disadvantage of chirped fiber grids is their fluctuations in the phase response. These fluctuations lead to additional signal distortions, which can largely negate the advantages of channel-selective dispersion compensation. The object of the invention is to provide an arrangement for dispersion compensation which enables a channel-specific adaptation with little effort.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird anhand Figur 2 näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail with reference to Figure 2.
An eine optische Übertragungsfaser 1 ist eine dispersionskom- pensierende Faser DCFO angeschaltet, die vom WDM-Signal Sλl-8 durchlaufen wird. Die dispersionskompensierende Faser (es kann auch ein breitbandiges gechirptes Fasergitter verwendet werden) ist beispielsweise so dimensioniert, daß zumindest die meisten WDM-Kanäle bzw. Kanalsignale SK1-SK8 leicht un- terkompensiert sind. Dieses vorkompensierte WDM-Signal STλl-8 wird einem Wellenlängendemultiplexer 2 zugeführt, der als Filter für die einzelnen Kanäle bzw. Kanalsignale arbeitet und jedes der teilkompensierten Signale STλl-STλ8 an einem separaten Ausgang abgibt. Die einzelnen Signale werden in Wandlern W1-W8 in analoge oder digitale elektrische Signale umgesetzt und jeweils einem Filter F1-F8 zugeführt. Wenn in Sonderfällen in einem der Kanäle bereits eine optimale Kompensation erfolgt ist, kann das Filter entfallen. Die Filter können als Transversalfilter oder rekursive Filter ausgebil- det sein. Besonders vorteilhaft sind Transversalfilter, da diese sich auch bei im Betrieb befindenden Systemen optimoert werden können.A dispersion-compensating fiber DCFO, through which the WDM signal Sλl-8 passes, is connected to an optical transmission fiber 1. The dispersion-compensating fiber (a broadband chirped fiber grating can also be used) is dimensioned, for example, such that at least most WDM channels or channel signals SK1-SK8 are slightly under-compensated. This precompensated WDM signal STλl-8 is fed to a wavelength demultiplexer 2, which works as a filter for the individual channels or channel signals and outputs each of the partially compensated signals STλl-STλ8 at a separate output. The individual signals are converted into analog or digital electrical signals in converters W1-W8 and each fed to a filter F1-F8. If, in special cases, optimal compensation has already taken place in one of the channels, the filter can be omitted. The filters can be designed as transversal filters or recursive filters. Transversal filters are particularly advantageous because they can also be optimized for systems in operation.
Ein Transversalfilter zweiter Ordnung reicht im allgemeinen für eine zufriedenstellende Kompensation aus. Die Filterkoeffizienten werden aufgrund von Messungen der Signalqualität optimiert. Die kompensierten Signale SKλl bis SKλ8 werden an Ausgängen AI bis A8 - ggf. jeweils über einen Verstärker - einer Abtaststufe oder anderen geeigneten Empfangseinrichtung zugeführt. A second order transverse filter is generally sufficient for satisfactory compensation. The filter coefficients are optimized based on measurements of the signal quality. The compensated signals SKλl to SKλ8 are fed to outputs AI to A8 - possibly via an amplifier in each case - to a sampling stage or other suitable receiving device.
