Problems solved by technology

[0007] The operating point of the intensity modulator is easily affected by changes in environmental factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic fields. The drift of the operating point of the intensity modulator will directly lead to a decline in the suppression effect of the intensity modulator on the intensity noise of the optical signal, and even make the entire The suppression device fails, so that the fiber optic gyroscope cannot work normally. This scheme does not consider the influence of the drift of the working point of the intensity modulator on the suppression effect of the intensity noise
This solution uses analog closed-loop control technology, which has the problems of poor optical signal processing capability and system instability.

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention provides an apparatus and a method for inhibiting intensity noise in an optical signal. The method comprises the following steps of: carrying out sampling on an optical signal output by an intensity modulator to obtain a voltage signal; demodulating the voltage signal; and generating a control signal according to a demodulation result. The control signal includes a power control signal for adjusting power of the optical signal and a modulating square wave signal for adjusting a working point of the intensity modulator. The intensity modulator modulates the powerof the received optical signal according to the received power control signal in the control signal, and adjusts the working point of the intensity modulator according to the received modulating square wave signal in the control signal, so as to maintain the working point of the intensity modulator stable. The embodiment of the invention can realize effective inhibition of the intensity noise in the optical signal while ensuring the working point of the intensity modulator stable.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical signal processing, in particular to a device and method for suppressing intensity noise in an optical signal. Background technique [0002] As a new type of inertial angular velocity sensor with extremely rapid development, fiber optic gyroscope has the advantages of no moving parts and no errors caused by acceleration. It has become the main inertial device in more and more fields and has become the main research direction in the next generation of aviation. . However, an important difference between the fiber optic gyroscope and the traditional electromechanical gyroscope is that there is a large amount of noise, which mainly includes the noise of the broad-spectrum light source of the fiber optic gyroscope. [0003] The noise of the fiber optic gyroscope will directly affect the performance indicators of the fiber optic gyroscope's random walk coefficient and zero bias instability, and direct...
