Problems solved by technology

Explorations in this area are relatively rare, such as recent reports (X.Zou, W.Pan, B.Luo, and L.Yan, "Instantaneous frequency measurement with digital outputs based on an optical filter array," [C]OFC / NFOEC 2011, Paper: JWA047, USA, Mar.2011) gives the digital measurement results of the phase-shifting comb filter; but the digital output results are in the form of circular code encoding (R.van de Plassche, CMOS integrated analog- to-digital and digital-to-analog converters (2nd ed)[M].Boston, MA: Kluwer, 2003, pp.114-115), for example, the actual number of effective codes for 4-bit output is 8 (ie 2 ×4); thus the encoding efficiency is low, and the number of encodings (32, that is, 2 4 )

Embodiment Construction

[0037] The implementation of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0038] Such as figure 1 As shown, the device for realizing the solution of the present invention is composed of a continuous laser light source 10, a carrier-suppressed single-sideband modulation module 20, an optical coupler 30, a comb filter module 40, a reference arm 50, an optical detection module 60, and a decision module 70. .

[0039] Starting from the laser light source 10, its output light enters the carrier-suppressed single-sideband modulation module 20, and its function is: the microwave signal to be measured (frequency is f m ) is applied to a continuous light source in a modulation mode other than ), and only a single first-order light sideband is obtained. The module is composed of a carrier-suppressing optical external modulation device (suppressing the optical carrier), a band-pass or band-stopping optical filter with a step res...

Abstract

The invention discloses a photonic microwave frequency measurement method and a photonic microwave frequency measurement device with highly-efficient digital coded output. The method comprises the following steps of: loading a microwave signal to be measured onto a continuous laser light source by using a carrier suppression type single side band modulation module to generate a single optical side band; splitting the optical side band by using an optical coupler, and inputting the split optical side band into a comb filter module, wherein the filter module comprises n parallel comb filters, and the free spectral ranges and relative phase shift of filter responses of the comb filters form a cyclic binary coded combination; and performing detection, comparison and judgment on the output light power of the n comb filters and a reference arm to obtain the n-bit cyclic binary coded digital frequency measurement output. By the method and the device, digital coding efficiency is greatly improved on the basis of realizing photonic microwave frequency measurement with the digital output; and the method and the device have the advantages of least error, high frequency measurement resolution and the like.
