Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of coherent optical communication, in particular to a four-port circulator and an optical module. The four-port circulator comprise a polarization splitting prism, a first optical transmitting port, a second optical fiber transmission interface, a third optical receiving port, a fourth optical receiving port, a Faraday magnetic rotation plate and a half-wave plate. Iincident light emitted from the second optical fiber transmission interface is subjected to a series of reflection and transmission and is finally outputted by the third light receiving port and the fourth light receiving port. According to the scheme, an optical transmission path for transmitting from the second optical fiber transmission interface to the fourth optical receiving port is added, and the optical signal inputted from the second optical fiber transmission interface each time can only be outputted from the third optical receiving port or the fourth optical receiving port and cannot be outputted from the first optical transmitting port. Therefore, the purpose of unidirectional transmission of the optical signal is achieved, and the output optical signal of the fourth optical receiving port is added at the same time. The BIDI optical module can couple and separate data transmitted by a single optical fiber so that the cost is lower under the same transmission effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coherent optical communication, in particular to a four-port circulator and an optical module. Background technique [0002] At present, most optical modules transmit data through two optical fibers, one of which is used to output data from network equipment, and the other optical fiber is used to transmit data to network equipment. BIDI (bidirectional) optical module is a single-fiber bidirectional coherent optical module, which uses WDM technology to transmit and output two central wavelengths in different directions to realize bidirectional transmission of optical signals on one optical fiber. Ordinary optical modules generally have two optical fiber transmission interfaces: the transmitting port (TX) and the receiving port (RX), while the BIDI optical module has only one optical fiber transmission interface, which is filtered by the filter in the optical module and simultaneously completes a wavelengt...
