Embodiment 1
[0044] The attenuation range wavelength of the attenuator is 1200nm-1650nm, according to formula (1) and formula (2) set the attenuation 30dB at 1310nm wavelength.
[0045] First, according to formula (2), 30dB attenuation at 1310nm is converted to the attenuation value at the reference wavelength of 1200nm,
[0046]
[0047] The attenuation value at 1200nm can be obtained as θ A = 21.778dB.
[0048] Substituting the above results into formula (1),
[0049]
[0050] The pulse value X of the stepping motor can be obtained = 10389, so to ensure the attenuation of 30dB at the wavelength of 1310nm, the pulse value of 10389 should be sent to the stepping motor.
[0051] The inverse formula is:
[0052]
[0053]
[0054] According to the reverse deduction formula, the corresponding relationship between the attenuation value of any point and the pulse value of the stepper motor can be calculated.
[0055] However, in the actual detection, due to the influence of the pro...
Embodiment 2
[0057] refer to figure 2 , in the actual data collection, the attenuation data increases linearly, but the attenuation value deviates in individual intervals (in the figure, the attenuation value 8 represents 0.08dB, and the data format can be deduced by analogy).
[0058] Table 1 Relationship between stepper motor pulse value and attenuation value at reference wavelength
[0059]
[0060] The stepper motor drives the attenuator to move from the reference position. According to formula (1), the attenuation data increases linearly, that is, the stepper motor advances 50 step pulses in theory, and the attenuation value increases by 10, which is 0.1dB. It is calculated by the homemade software of the host computer The gap between the current attenuation value and the theoretical value,
[0061] If the error is less than 0.05dB, then the interval will directly calculate the pulse value of the stepping motor according to the linear difference method, and perform attenuation co...
