This is incorporated herein by reference.

Technical field

The present invention relates to a WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplex) system, and more particularly to a wavelength division multiplexing device and a method for implementing the WDM function.

Background technique

WDM technology combines two or more optical carrier signals with different wavelengths and carrying various information at the transmitting end through the combiner, and is coupled to the same optical fiber of the optical line for transmission; at the receiving end, the splitter will Optical carriers of various wavelengths are separated to further recover the signals carried therein. With the development of communication technologies in recent years, the access capacity of WDM services of network transmission equipment has been increasing, and higher requirements have been placed on the service access capability of single-subrack or single-board cards.

In existing communication devices, the WDM function is usually implemented by a line card. A typical structure of a line card is shown in FIG. 1. The line card includes a multiplexer 110, a splitter 120, and a circuit board 130. The multiplexer 110 and the splitter 120 provide line access through the optical interface, and the multiplexer 110. The splitter board 120 and the circuit board 130 are respectively connected by an optical fiber.

The multiplexer 110 includes a multiplexer unit 111 and a multiplexer CPU (Central Process Unit) unit 112. The multiplexer unit 111 couples the multiple single-wavelength optical signals received from the circuit board 130 into one optical combination signal, that is, multiple The wavelength optical signal is sent from the optical fiber interface. The multiplexed CPU unit 112 is mainly composed of a CPU and its peripheral circuits, and is connected to the multiplex unit 111 by a control bus to manage and monitor the multiplex unit 111.

The demultiplexing board 120 includes a demultiplexing unit 121 and a demultiplexing CPU unit 122, wherein the demultiplexing unit 121 decouples the multi-wavelength optical signal received from the optical fiber interface into multiple single-wavelength optical signals and outputs the optical signals to the circuit board 130 through the optical fiber; The wave CPU unit 122 is also mainly composed of a CPU and its peripheral circuits, and is connected to the branching unit 121 by a control bus, and manages and monitors the branching unit 121.

The circuit board 130 includes a service processing unit 131 and a service CPU unit 132. The service processing unit 131 receives a decoupled optical signal from the demultiplexing board 120, and recovers the branch service signal carried therein, through the branch backplane interface 140. Sent to the tributary board; the service processing unit 131 is connected from the tributary backplane The port 140 receives the branch service signal, converts it into a specific wavelength optical signal and outputs it to the multiplexer 110, and the specific wavelength can satisfy the input wavelength requirement of the multiplexer 110. The line CPU unit 132 manages and monitors the service processing unit 131.

In the prior art, the service capacity accessed by the fiber interface on the line card is processed by the circuit board 130. As the capacity of the access service increases, it is difficult for a single board to provide service processing capability that matches the access capacity. In this case, the line card is usually formed into a plurality of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) boards. Its physical structure can be as shown in Figure 2. In Fig. 2, the multiplexer 110 and the splitter 120 may be formed as a PCB 150 including a fiber optic interface 160 on which the circuit board 130 and the PCB 150 are laminated. It can be seen that the structure of the line card is quite complicated, and the design must consider the structure and connection relationship between the stacked boards and between the multiple boards and the back board, such as collimation, tolerance of multiple connectors, and lamination of single boards. Problems such as fixed installations increase the workload of the design. Moreover, once a device on the line card fails, it is usually only possible to replace the entire line card, which is costly to maintain.

In addition, the service processing capability of the line card implementing the WDM function is fixed, and the service capacity accessed from the fiber interface is variable. In this way, if the user's access service capacity may subsequently increase, the user may have to purchase a line card that can meet its future needs in advance, or replace the new line card later, and lack the flexibility to increase the service processing capability with the business growth.

Summary of the invention

The embodiment of the invention further provides a method for implementing the WDM function, and performing the following method on the optical integrated device PID module connected to the at least one service processing module: The PID module converts the multi-wavelength optical signal from the access line into a line service signal and outputs the signal to the service processing module;

In the embodiment of the present invention, the wavelength division multiplexing device is split into a PID (Photonic Integrated Device) module and a service processing module, and the photoelectric conversion is completed on the PID module, so that the PID module can connect multiple signals by electrical signals. The service processing module completes the conversion of the line service signal and the branch service signal, thereby avoiding the multi-layer structure of the wavelength division multiplexing device, or reducing the number of layers of the multi-layer structure, and reducing the workload of the board design; When a module fails, it only needs to replace the faulty module without having to replace the entire device, which reduces maintenance costs. Since the access service capacity of a PID module can be processed by multiple service processing modules, the user can choose to meet the current requirements. The service processing module of the access capacity increases the service processing module when the capacity of the access service grows, and realizes the capacity expansion capacity that gradually grows with the service.

The connection between the service processing interfaces is implemented by the traces in the backplane.

In the wavelength division multiplexing device of the present invention, the PID module may have the structure shown in FIG. The multi-wavelength splitting unit 310 and the multi-wavelength combining unit 340 of the PID module 300 are connected to the access optical fiber.

The multi-wavelength demultiplexing unit 310 can also be implemented by other devices having a splitting function, and if necessary, an EDFA (erbium doped fiber amplifier) or an EDWA (erbdoped waveguide amplifier) can be used to compensate the optical loss of the AWG and the like.

The O/E conversion unit 320 may include a PD (photodiode) chip and peripheral circuits to implement a function of converting an optical signal into an electrical signal. The multi-wavelength demultiplexing unit 310 and the O/E conversion unit 320 in the PID module 300 are typically packaged as a semiconductor original.

When the format of the signal transmitted between the service processing interfaces 400 is different from the output signal format of the O/E conversion unit 320, or the degree of distortion of the line service signal after the service processing interface 400 is large, the O/E conversion unit 320 may be The data processing unit 330 is connected in series between the service processing interfaces 400. The data recovery unit 330 shapes and/or levels the line traffic signals output by the O/E conversion unit 320 to match the transmission signal format of the service processing interface 400. The data recovery unit 330 generally includes an electrical signal amplifier and an electrical signal clock data recovery circuit for amplifying and regenerating the line service signal to correctly reflect the carried information when the two service processing interfaces 400 reach the service processing module. .

In the transmission direction of the access fiber, the PID module 300 receives the line service signal from the service processing module 400 from the service processing interface 400, and the line service signal is input to the E/0 (electro-optical) conversion unit 350 of the PID module 300. The E/O conversion unit 350 performs electro-optical conversion on the line service signal to form a plurality of single-wavelength optical signals, which are output to the multi-wavelength multiplexing unit 340. The multi-wavelength multiplexer unit 340 couples the multiple single-wavelength optical signals into one multi-wavelength optical combined signal for transmission from the access fiber.

An example implementation of the multi-wavelength multiplexer unit 340 and the E/O conversion unit 350 may have the structure shown in FIG. 4 in which the multi-wavelength multiplexer unit 340 is implemented using the arrayed waveguide grating 341. In the E/O conversion unit 350, the data channel sub-unit 354 outputs the line service signals from the service processing module to the respective light source link sub-units 351; each of the light source link sub-units 351 is composed of a light source, a modulator module, and light. The switch and the corresponding peripheral circuit and the like are configured to modulate the line signal outputted by the data channel sub-unit 354 into a fixed-wavelength optical signal, and output to the TAP (optical coupler) corresponding to each of the light source link sub-units 351. Unit 352; TAP sub-unit 352 has the functions of a splitter and an optical switch, and can be used in the optical signal output portion of the light source link sub-unit 351, such as 1% output to the link monitoring sub-unit 355 for link monitoring, An optical signal of a certain wavelength can be output to the arrayed waveguide grating 341 or off; the link monitoring sub-unit 355 performs monitoring of each optical signal according to the optical signal split by the TAP sub-unit 352, including monitoring of power, wavelength drift or temperature, and is controlled by the main control unit 370. Information interaction. The waveguide array grating 341 couples optical signals of different wavelengths received from the respective TAP sub-units 352 into one multi-wavelength optical signal.

The E/O conversion unit 350 and the arrayed waveguide grating 341 in Fig. 4 are usually integrated on the same semiconductor substrate, and each link uses a fixed-wavelength light source whose wavelength can vary with a small range of temperature. In general, the light source may be a DFB (distributed feedback laser) laser or a DBR (distributed Bragg reflector laser) laser, wherein the wavelength of the DFB or DBR laser using InP (indium phosphide) material varies with temperature by 0.1 nm/ °C (nano per degree).

Arrayed waveguide grating 341 can also be replaced by other devices, such as Nxl PLC (Planar)

Lightwave Circuit, Planar Optical Waveguide) Waveguide multiplexer, star multiplexer, MMI (Multimode Interference) combiner, etc., if necessary, EDFA or EDWA can be used to compensate for AWG and other multiplexers. Light loss.

Referring to FIG. 3, when the format of the signal transmitted between the service processing interfaces 400 is different from the input signal format of the E/O conversion unit 350, or the degree of distortion of the line service signal after the service processing interface 400 is large, it may be in the E. The data drive unit 360 is connected in series between the /O conversion unit 350 and the service processing interface 400. The data driving unit 360 performs shaping and/or level conversion on the line traffic signal output by the service processing interface 400 to match the input signal format of the E/O conversion unit 350. Typically, the data driving unit 360 amplifies the line service signal to enhance the driving capability of the line service signal.

The main control unit 370 in the PID module 300 includes, in addition to other units in the PID module, a multi-wavelength demultiplexing unit 310, an O/E conversion unit 320, a data recovery unit 330, a multi-wavelength multiplexing unit 340, and an E/O conversion unit. The 350 and data driving unit 360 performs operation control and status monitoring, and is also connected to the slave control unit in the service processing module, and manages the service processing module from the control unit, including performing operation control and status monitoring. It can be seen that the service processing interface 400 can not only transmit the line service signal between the PID module 300 and the service processing module, but also can transmit the control signal between the main control unit 370 and the slave control unit in the service processing module. The main control unit 370 typically employs a CPU to implement management functions. The specific management functions of the main control unit 370 for each unit in the PID module 300 may include performance monitoring, initialization, abnormal state alarms, and the like, and the implementation may be performed in the prior art manner, and is not described herein. In the wavelength division multiplexing device of the present invention, the service processing module may have the structure shown in FIG. The low rate branch service signal from the tributary board is input by the tributary backplane interface 140 to the service mapping unit 520 of the service processing module 500. The service mapping unit 520 maps the plurality of branch service packages into a high-rate service channel, in other words, maps the branch service signals to line service signals, and sends the line service signals to the PID module.

For the line service signal from the PID module, the service demapping unit 530 demaps the line service signal into a tributary service signal, and decapsulates the information transmitted by the high-rate service channel, and restores the low-speed tributary service information, and passes The backplane backplane interface 140 on the backplane is output to the tributary board.

As previously mentioned, the service processing module 500 and the PID module can be connected through the service processing interface 400. When the output signal format of the service mapping unit 520 and the input signal format of the service demapping unit 530 are different from the format of the signal transmitted between the service processing interfaces 400, or the degree of distortion of the line service signal after the service processing interface 400 is large, The electrical data processing unit 510 is connected in series between the service processing interface 400 and the service mapping unit 520, and is also connected in series between the service processing interface service processing interface 400 and the service demapping unit 530. The electrical data processing unit 510 performs shaping and/or level-converting the input line service signal, including shaping the line service signal from the service processing interface 400 and outputting it to the service demapping unit 530, and from the service mapping unit. The line industry of the 520 is amplified and output to the service processing interface 400.

The slave control unit 540 in the service processing module 500 is connected to the master control unit in the PID module by a control signal, and the respective units in the service processing module 500, including the electrical data processing unit 510, the service mapping unit 520, and the instructions of the main control unit. The service demapping unit 530 performs operation control and status monitoring. In other words, the service processing module 500 directly manages other units from the control unit 540, and the management operation of the slave control unit 540 is controlled by the main control unit in the PID module, so that the main control unit in the PID module substantially manages the waves. The other units in the multiplexer are divided. The slave control unit 540 may include a CPU or a digital logic circuit, such as an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) and a CPLD (Modular Programmable Logical Device). The specific management functions of the other units in the service processing module 500 from the control unit 540 and their implementations can also be implemented in the prior art.

When the slave control unit 540 implements the digital logic circuit, the main control unit in the PID module operates the digital logic circuit through a control signal such as an address, a data, an interrupt, etc., including a reset chip, The reporting or the like is interrupted, so that the main control unit completes the management of the business processing module 500. In such an implementation, the main control unit can logically load the digital logic circuitry from the control unit 540 when the service interface module 500 is booted. In order to enable the main control unit to automatically discover the service processing module 500 connected to the PID module, the online status signal of the service processing module 500 may be added to the control signal of the connection between the PID module and the service processing module 500, when the service processing module 500 is online. The status signal will only assume a predetermined state. After the main control unit learns that a certain service processing module 500 is online, the digital logic circuit of the service processing module 500 is loaded, each unit on the service processing module 500 is initialized, and the service processing module 500 is started to work.

For example, the online status signal line of the service processing module can be connected to the PID module main control unit, which is grounded on the service processing module and connected to the power supply on the PID module. After the service processing module is inserted into the service processing interface on the backplane, the online state signal line of the service processing module changes from a high level to a low level on the PID module, so that the main control unit of the PID module knows the service processing. The module is online.

In the wavelength division multiplexing device, the PID module 300 and the service processing module 500 may have the physical structure shown in Fig. 6. The PID module 300 has a fiber optic interface 160 connecting a multi-wavelength splitting unit and a multi-wavelength combining unit for inputting and outputting a multi-wavelength optical signal to the PID module. The PID module 300 is inserted into the service processing interface on the backplane, and the service processing module 500 is inserted into the service processing interface and the branch backplane interface on the backplane.

The backplane may have multiple interfaces connected to the PID module and multiple interfaces connected to the service processing module, and each PID module is respectively connected to one to multiple service processing modules. For example, in the figure, the backplane includes an interface 720 connecting the PID module and five interfaces 710 connecting the service processing modules, and the interface 720 connecting the PID modules is respectively connected to the interface 710 of each connection service processing module. The connection signal includes a line traffic signal and a control signal.

In this way, the PID module and the service processing module can be respectively inserted into the corresponding interfaces, and the PID module can automatically identify which interface is inserted into the service processing module from the online status signal line, and automatically perform logical loading, chip initialization, and start the business processing module work. . A service accessed by a PID module may be processed by multiple service processing modules, and the service processing modules may have the same or different service processing capacity; when the access service capacity increases, a new service processing module may be inserted to complete Add some of the business processing, so that you can flexibly select and configure the business processing module according to the actual application requirements, while taking into account cost and performance. The service processing module can be made into a board with a unified backplane interface, so that any one of the service processing modules can be replaced separately, which reduces maintenance costs. It is also possible to further make the business processing modules into the same board to reduce the types and quantities of spare parts.

For example, the wavelength division multiplexing device includes a PID module and three service processing modules, and the PID module has a service access capacity of 120 Gbps (gigabits per second;), which is carried by 12 wavelengths, and each wavelength transmits 10G; The processing service capacity of the service processing module is 40 Gbps, so that the three service processing modules just complete the business processing of the PID module. Of course, the processing service capacity of the three service processing modules may also be different, such as 50 Gbps, 40 Gbps, and 30 Gbps, or 60 Gbps, 40 Gbps, and 20 Gbps, or 50 Gbps, 50 Gbps, and 50 Gbps, which are convenient for future access capacity. upgrade.

In the method embodiment of the present invention for implementing the WDM function, in the receiving direction of the wavelength division multiplexing device,

The PID module converts the multi-wavelength optical signal of the access line into a line service signal, and outputs the line service signal to the service processing module; the service processing module converts the line service signal into a branch service signal output to the branch under the management of the PID module. Road board. In the transmitting direction of the wavelength division multiplexing device, the service processing module receives the branch service signal from the tributary board under the management of the PID module, converts the received branch service signal into a line service signal, and outputs the signal to the PID module; the PID module The line service signal is converted into a multi-wavelength optical signal, and the multi-wavelength optical signal is output from the access line. The main control unit of the PID module manages the conversion between the multi-wavelength optical signal and the line service signal, and manages the conversion between the line service signal of the service processing module and the branch service signal through the slave control unit on the service processing module.

The main control unit of the PID module can control a certain service processing module by using the flow shown in Figure 8 to implement the WDM function. When the control signal between the PID module and the service processing module includes the online status signal of the service processing module, step S810 to step S830 are performed.

Step S810: The main control unit reads the online status signal of the connected service processing module after powering on. The online status signal of each service processing module is unique to the main control unit, and the main control unit can not only determine whether the corresponding service processing module is online or offline through the online status signal, but also can use the online status signal as a different service processing module. The logo identifies the various online business processing modules.

Step S820: The main control unit determines, by the status signal, whether the service processing module is in an online state, and if yes, proceeds to step S830; if not, ends the processing on the service processing module.

Step S830: Start the service processing module in the online state to work. If the business processing module The slave control unit includes a CPU, and the master control module can instruct the slave controller to initialize the service processing module. When the slave control unit of the service processing module is a digital logic circuit, the main control unit loads the digital logic circuit online and instructs it to complete the initialization of the service processing module; the main control unit uses the address, data, interrupt, etc. The logic circuit operates.

The main control unit can allocate its processing resources according to the actual situation during the loading and / or initialization process to prevent the interruption of the existing services caused by the excessive processing resources occupied by the loading and / or initialization process.

Step S840: The main control unit manages the conversion of the line service signal of the service processing module and the branch service signal by the slave control unit. The management of the service processing module may include operation control and status monitoring, such as service performance monitoring, initialization control, and alarm processing.

When the service processing module is offline, the main control unit can be notified by means of the interrupt mode. After receiving the interrupt, the main control unit performs protection switching of the service to ensure the service switching time. At this time, the main control unit can execute step S850 and step S860.

Step S850: Receive an offline interrupt of the service processing module when the service processing module is offline. When the service processing module is offline, the status of the online status signal changes from online to offline; the PID module can learn that the service processing module is offline according to the status change, and can further generate an interrupt signal according to the status change, and notify the main control unit.

Step S860: Switch the line service signal protection to another online service processing module.

It should be noted that, in addition to performing the process in FIG. 8, the main control unit also manages the conversion between the multi-wavelength optical signal and the line service signal on the PID module, including operation control and status monitoring, such as service performance monitoring. , initialization control, alarm processing, etc.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the service processing module can be flexibly configured according to the size of the access traffic, and the service processing module is added when the access traffic is increased.
