Abstract

The invention discloses an optical fiber link detection system and a method based on a digital linear frequency modulation signal. The system comprises a digital modulation signal generator, a circulator and a receiver. The digital modulation signal generator is used for generating a detection signal in the form of a digital modulation optical pulse and injecting the detected optical fiber throughthe circulator. The receiver extracts the detected optical fiber features carried by the detection signal from the backscattered signal. The invention utilizes the characteristic that the linear frequency modulation signal has excellent energy gathering in the fractional Fourier domain, by using digital LFM optical pulse as detection signal, LFM signals with different FM ranges are separated fromnoise in backscattered signals, and the characteristics of detected optical fiber are extracted, which can improve the dynamic range and measurement range resolution of optical fiber link detection simultaneously without increasing the cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber communication, in particular to an optical fiber link detection system and method based on digital chirp signals. Background technique [0002] An Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) is an instrument commonly used in the telecommunications field to measure the characteristics of optical fibers. It can measure optical fiber characteristics such as transmission loss, connector attenuation, fiber length, and interruption points. Its working principle is: inject a series of optical pulse signals into the detected optical fiber as the detection signal, and receive the reflected backscattering signal on the same side of the injected optical pulse, because the optical pulse signal injected into the detected optical fiber encounters different Rayleigh scattering (Rayleigh scattering) will occur when the medium has a refractive index and will be reflected back by the fiber under test, so the cha...
