Abstract

Through electro optic modulator, local oscillation signal in double sideband is generated at controller of base station. Through filtering by grating of optical fiber, base station end obtains local oscillation signal in single sideband restrained by carrier. Through electro optic modulator, base station end carries out full photomixing between radio-frequency signal and local oscillation signal in single sideband. Through up going optical fiber link, the mixed optical signal is transferred to the controller of base station. Through photo detector and intermediate frequency filter, the controller of base station obtains signal in intermediate frequency of passing through down-conversion. Base station does not need local laser and local oscillation source of microwave, which are centralized at controller of base station. Thus, cost of system is lowered greatly. The invention prevents influence on quality of signal from effect of optical fiber dispersion, and raises SNR of system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical communication and wireless communication, in particular to a microwave photon frequency down-conversion method and device based on an electro-optical modulator and a fiber grating. Background technique [0002] In recent years, Radio over Fiber (RoF) technology has attracted widespread attention. RoF is an analog modulated subcarrier multiplexing technology. There are a wide range of applications in transportation systems. RoF is applied in wireless / mobile communication systems. It can move the baseband processing, modulation, and frequency mixing functions of the base station to the base station controller for centralized processing, while the base station only retains the functions of photoelectric conversion, filtering and amplification, which can greatly reduce the cost of the base station. In the future dense microcellular communication system, due to the large number of base stations, the use of RoF ...
