Embodiment 1

[0031] like image 3 Shown is a schematic diagram of a link of a wavelength division network. In the figure, a link is taken as an example. After the OTM1 (Optical Terminal Multiplexer, optical terminal multiplexer) multiplexes the uplink optical signals generated by the laser, it passes through the OLA1 (Optical Line Multiplexer). Amplifier, optical line amplifier) ​​amplifies and transmits downstream; OADM1 (Optical Add and Drop Multiplexer, optical add-drop multiplexer) receives the optical signal amplified by OLA1, drops the optical signal from OTM1, and then multiplexes the OADM1 itself After the optical signal received from OADM1 is transmitted downstream, it is amplified by OLA2 and OLA3 and then sent to OADM2 for transmission. OADM2 will down-wave the received optical signal from OADM1, and then multiplex the uplink optical signal of OADM2 itself, and then transmit it downstream. , amplified by OLA4 and OLA5 and sent to OTM2.

[0099] The technical solution of Embodiment 1 is a detailed description of the optical power adjustment method for the chain network. In this embodiment, a method for adjusting optical power is proposed for the circumstance of a ring network. According to the characteristics of the ring network, the method provided by this embodiment is described in detail, and the contents are as follows:

[0100] For the automatic commissioning of optical power in the WDM network of the ring network, the transmitters of the ring network are all transmitters with through waves. In order to optimize the commissioning effect, the ring network needs to be commissioned twice. Among them, the first commissioning is performed. When , the attenuation value of the punch-through wave obtained according to the calibration attenuation formula cannot be changed, so a second commissioning is required to optimize the total power of the combined wave to make up for the error caused by the calculation accord...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical networks, in particular to a method and device for adjusting and measuring optical power. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of network transmission technology, WDM networks have attracted widespread attention. A wavelength division network refers to an optical network that adopts the principle of wavelength division multiplexing (Wave Division Multiplexing, WDM) transmission. Wavelength division multiplexing transmission is to multiplex input signals of different wavelengths, that is, optical carriers, at the transmitting end of the optical network through a multiplexer, and then transmit it to the receiving end through an optical fiber. The received multiplexed optical signals are separated to obtain a single optical carrier, and then the converter can convert the optical signal corresponding to the optical carrier into an electrical signal, or connect the obtained differ...
