Description

波长可调谐的光发射装置 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种波长可调谐的光发射装置。
背景技术
为提高网络传输容量,波分复用(Wavelength Division Multiplexing,WDM)技术进入城域接入以及数据中心的需求日益迫切,采用WDM技术可以成倍的提升单光纤的传输容量,并且引入波长维度进行网络管理和规划。WDM网络通常使用分布式反馈激光器(Distributed Feedback Laser,DFB)来发射波长信号,但是,WDM网络中需要多种不同波长的信号,而每一类型DFB激光器发射的波长是固定的,因此WDM网络需要包括发射不同波长DFB激光器的光收发模块,这样就会导致光收发模块类型的增加,进而提高了在备货、安装、运转与维护过程中成本。现有技术中采用波长可调谐的激光器来替代固定波长的DFB激光器,波长可调谐激光器的原理是基于两组梳状滤波的游标效应来实现波长调谐,梳状滤波的主要实现方案是在半导体激光器刻蚀分布式反馈布拉格光栅(Distributed Bragg Reflector,DBR)。采用波长可调谐的激光器不仅可以减少光模块的种类,还可以给网络管理和规划带来额外的灵活度。
现有技术中至少存在如下问题:DBR光栅的制作需要精细的制造工艺,这导致其制造成本高于普通的DFB激光器,并且波长可调谐的激光器实现波长的调谐需要复杂的多电极控制电流和控制算法,这增加了制造的复杂度率,进而提高了DBR可调谐激光器的成本。所以,基于波长可调谐的激光器的WDM系统并不能从根本上降低成本。

下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其它实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
为使本发明技术方案的优点更加清楚,下面结合附图和实施例对本发明作详细说明。
本发明一实施例提供一种波长可调谐的光发射装置,如图1所示,包括多个多纵模激光器1、循环波长分合波器2和反射器3;所述多纵模激光器1的输出端与所述循环波长分合波器2的一个输入端连接,所述循环波长分合波器2的输出端与所述反射器3的输入端连接,所述反射器3的输出端输出合波信号;所述多纵模激光器1输出具有周期重复频率间隔的多纵模信号,所 述周期为Δfmode;所述循环波长分合波器2对输入的多纵模信号通过输入端滤波窗口进行周期重复滤波,得出与所述循环波长分合波器2的输入端滤波窗口对应的单频信号,所述循环波长分合波器2将各输入端滤波后的单频信号合波并通过所述循环波长分合波器2的输出端将合波信号输出至所述反射器3,所述滤波窗口重复周期为Δfband,其中,Δfmode与Δfband不同,且Δfmode与Δfband不互为整倍数关系;所述反射器3将输入合波信号中预设部分功率的合波信号反射回所述循环波长分合波器2,所述输入合波信号中除所述预设部分功率外的剩余信号从所述反射器3的输出端输出;所述循环波长分合波器2接收所述反射器反射的合波信号后,将所述反射器3反射的合波信号分离为单频信号,分别确定与各分离后单频信号对应的目标输入端滤波窗口以及与所述目标输入端滤波窗口对应的所述循环波长分合波器2的目标输入端,将各分离后单频信号通过所述目标输入端反馈至与所述目标输入端连接的多纵模激光器1;多纵模激光器1锁定所述循环波长分合波器2反馈单频信号的波长,生成与所述循环波长分合波器2反馈单频信号的波长相同的信号并输出。
具体的,多纵模激光器1的实现方式,可以是基于法布里泊罗谐振腔或者环形谐振腔的半导体激光器。n个多纵模激光器1分别与循环波长分合波器2的n个输入端口相连接。反射器3可以为90度半透半返法拉第旋光镜(Faraday Rotation Mirror,FRM),FRM将输入FRM的合波信号偏振态旋转90°,并将部分功率的合波信号反射,使其沿原路径分别反馈回到各多纵模激光器1中,而剩余合波信号则透射输出。
需要说明的是,多纵模激光器开始输出的为多纵模信号,循环波长分合波器2将多纵模激光器1输出的多纵模信号滤波为单频信号,然后合波输出到一根光纤端口,反射器3与循环波长分合波器2的输出端口连接,将一部分功率的合波信号经过循环波长分合波器2分波为单频信号后分别反馈回到各个多纵模激光器1中,多纵模激光器1锁定循环波长分合波器2反馈的单频信号的波长,在后续过程中生成与锁定的单频信号波长相同的单频信 号并输出至循环波长分合波器2的输入端,由此,多纵模激光器1、循环波长分合波器2的滤波窗口、以及反射器3,构成自注入反馈装置,可以实现把多纵模激光器1锁定在单纵模输出模式,从而保证多纵模激光器1在某一时刻输出一种波长的单频信号。多纵模激光器1的输出信号重复周期Δfmode,与循环波长分合波器2每个输入端口的滤波窗口中心波长重复周期Δfband存在频率偏差,即Δfmode与Δfband不同且Δfmode与Δfband不互为整倍数关系,由此,两者构成游标效应,其等效的自由光谱范围(Free Spectrum Range,FSR)为:FSR=Δfmode*Δfband/(Δfmode-Δfband),在一个FSR范围内,多纵模信号中有且只有一个激光器信号的波长与循环波长分合波器的滤波窗口中心波长相匹配,这样通过自注入反馈锁定,可以只允许波长匹配的纵模模式谐振,而其余波长不匹配的纵模模式均被抑制,实现将多纵模激光器的输出锁定在单频输出模式,且输出的单频信号波长与循环波长分合波器2滤波窗口中心波长对准。如果循环波长分合波器2的窗口与国际电信联盟标准栅格(International Telecommunication Unionstandardization grid,ITU-T grid)对准,那么循环波长分合波器2滤波锁定的单频信号波长也相应的与ITU-grid对准,因此本发明实施例的光发射装置无需额外的波长电流图调测,降低成本和使用的复杂度。另外,通过对多纵模激光器1的输出信号进行频移,频移量等于Δfmode与Δfband的差值,就可以实现多纵模将激光器1锁定的波长调谐到循环波长分合波器2下一个周期的滤波窗口,例如,如图2所示,循环波长分合波器2共有4个输入端口,输入端口之间间隔为fch,对应输入端口2的多纵模将激光器1输出波长为λmode1、λmode(1+m)和λmode(1+2m)的多个纵模,当前状态下多纵模信号中λmode1波长的信号与循环波长分合波器2中输入端口2的滤波窗口中心波长λ1相匹配,则多纵模将激光器1经过自注入反馈,锁定波长为λ1的信号,当需要锁定波长为λ(1+m)的信号时,调整多纵模将激光器1使频率向高频率方向移动Δfband-Δfmode的频移量,波长为λmode(1+m)的纵模信号将被频移至与循环波长分合波器2中输入端口2的滤 波窗口中心波长λ(1+m)相匹配,则多纵模将激光器1经过自注入反馈,锁定波长为λ(1+m)的信号,从而实现了波长调谐。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例的波长可调谐的光发射装置中,多个多纵模激光器1完全相同,这样可以进一步简化光发射装置的制作过程,降低成本。
本发明实施例中设置循环波长分合波器2的输入端滤波窗口周期重复,多纵模激光器1输出多纵模信号的频率间隔周期和循环波长分合波器2的输入端滤波窗口重复周期不同且不互为整倍数关系,可以使多纵模激光器1输出多纵模信号时,同一时刻只有一个信号可以从循环波长分合波器2的滤波窗口通过,得出与此输入端滤波窗口对应的单频信号,当需要调谐信号的波长时,只需要平移多纵模激光器1输出信号的光谱,就可使多纵模激光器1输出的另一个信号对应循环波长分合波器2的另一个滤波窗口,即循环波长分合波器2对输入的多纵模信号滤波后得出与此时输入端滤波窗口对应的单频信号,由于前后两次的输入端滤波窗口的中心波长不同,则前后两次滤波得到单频信号的波长也不行同,即实现输出信号波长的调谐,本发明实施例中,多纵模激光器1和循环波长分合波器2结构简单,制作过程不需要精细的制造工艺和复杂的算法,简化了激光器设计和制作过程,降低光发射装置的成本。
需要说明的是,对比传统的基于DFB/DBR等激光器的WDM光源,本发明实施例基于结构简单的法布里泊罗谐振腔或者环形谐振腔的半导体多纵模激光器,而且连接到循环波长分合波器2每一个端口的激光器都是相同的设计,这简化了激光器设计和制作,使系统整体成本可以降低。并且本发明实施例基于自注入反馈,多纵模激光器通过自注入反馈锁定至单频信号并输出,且单频信号波长自动对准循环波长分合波器2滤波窗口,而无需额外的调测,这降低了光发射装置的测试成本。

其中,每个微环谐振腔9都对应一个输入端口,且都具有周期性的滤波窗口,滤波窗口的自由光谱范围FSR都是一样的,其FSR对应循环波长分合波器2的Δfband。各个微环谐振腔9滤波窗口谐振峰分别等间隔错开,相邻两个微环谐振腔的滤波窗口的间隔即为循环波长分合波器2的通道间隔Δfch。微环谐振腔的滤波带宽,实现如前述的多纵模激光器自注入反馈波长锁定精度的控制。
