Abstract

Provided are an optical network fault detection device based on noise signals and a detection method thereof. The device is characterized in that a noise source and a signal processing unit are arranged in a main optical fiber between an optical line terminal and an optical distribution network unit. The noise source includes spontaneous radiation noise amplified by an online optical amplifier or introduced noise signals and is located on the side of the optical line terminal. The method includes utilizing spontaneous radiation noise amplified by the optical amplifier in an optical fiber main line or introduced noise signals, conducting detection by coupling a wavelength division multiplexer into branches of the optical network, filtering optical signals of corresponding branches to be detected through a reflection type adjustable filter, conducting relative processing on returned detection signals and reference signals in the signal processing unit and achieving fault location through relative peak value of relative curves. The device and the method utilize noise wideband characteristics to achieve proper online location detection of the wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network, and are simple in structure, convenient to operate and accurate in optical network fault detection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical network fault detection device and a detection method thereof, more specifically, an optical network fault detection device and a detection method using noise signals. Background technique [0002] Among various broadband access technologies, Passive Optical Network (PON) has become one of the hot technologies today due to its advantages of large capacity, long transmission distance, low cost, and full service support. PON is a point-to-multipoint network, mainly including three parts: optical line terminal OLT, optical distribution network ODN and optical network user unit ONU. Due to the multi-branch topology of PON, it brings great challenges to the detection of network faults. In order to ensure the stability of the optical fiber network, it is particularly important to quickly and accurately locate faults in the line. [0003] Existing optical network fault detection mainly uses a single-wavelength Optical ...
