Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device in the technical field of optical fiber communication, in particular to a device for generating a frequency shift keying optical modulation signal based on a silicon-based microring resonator cavity. Background technique [0002] Frequency shift keying (FSK) optical modulation signal is to carry signals by controlling the difference of optical carrier frequency, and has important application value in optical fiber communication. Compared with differential phase shift keying and amplitude shift keying optical modulation signals, frequency shift keying optical modulation signals are the least sensitive to fiber nonlinear damage, and have a constant envelope and can perform amplitude remodulation, so this code pattern is in There are good applications in passive optical networks and optical packet switching networks. The frequency shift keying optical modulation signal can be demodulated by a balanced receiver, the recei...
