Problems solved by technology

There is also a method of dual polarization or dual wavelength combined with parallel MZM to suppress third-order intermodulation, but the control accuracy is relatively high
Compared with MZM, the microring modulator has a simpler structure and smaller size, but the unique Lorentz transfer function theory is more complicated. The traditional single-wavelength microring modulator adjusts the working wavelength to Lorentz transfer At the maximum slope of the function, the first-order harmonic (HD1) reaches the maximum at this time, but the third-order intermodulation (IMD3) does not reach the minimum at this time, which cannot meet the high linearity requirements of microwave photonic links

Abstract

The invention discloses a micro-wave photon-link high linearity method based on a double-wavelength micro-ring modulator. In the method, through two lasers and one variable optical attenuator, double wavelengths of an adjustable power ratio are generated. Through an optical fiber coupler, a combined wave is taken as an optical carrier wave signal of a micro-ring modulator, and a photodiode is used to carry out direct detection on a link receiving end. One wave is a main wave and a main wave wavelength is adjusted to an optimum work point and is maintained. Another wave is an auxiliary wave, and a work wavelength and optical power of the auxiliary wave are adjusted to assist and compensate third-order cross modulation of the main wave so as to realize a micro-wave photon link with high linearity.
