Embodiment Construction

[0036] First, through the optical injection locking process of the laser, the laser at the transmitting end is injected into the local (LO) laser at the receiving end. Realize the synchronization of light waves at the sending and receiving ends, and the frequency is exactly the same. The sending office uses two wavelengths of light waves for each user end, one carries the downlink signal, and the other injects into the local laser of the coherent receiver of the user end to realize the heterodyne detection of the downlink signal light wave, and at the same time as the light source of the uplink signal, carrying up signal. The two wavelengths are provided by a multi-wavelength optical comb generator (Optical Comb Generator) composed of a narrow linewidth laser and a lithium niobate optical modulator (MZM), and the remaining wavelengths are provided to other user terminals. Injection locking is achieved through a polarization-maintaining circulator connected to a controlled las...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical receivers, in particular to a heterodyne detection device based on optical injection locking and an optical phase-locked loop. Background technique [0002] The optical detection technology applied in the existing optical access network is direct detection (envelope detection). The idea of ​​optical coherent detection technology originated from the radio heterodyne detection technology. With the help of the multiplication effect of the strong power of the local oscillator, even if the external signal is very weak, a sufficiently large output signal can still be generated in the detection circuit, thereby achieving high receiver sensitivity. Utilizing the tuning of the local oscillation frequency, the user can choose to receive the information he needs among various signals and many channels. Therefore, high receiving sensitivity and strong frequency selectivity are the fundamental advantages of coherent d...
