Abstract

The invention discloses a pilot-based bias voltage control device and method for an IQ modulator, belonging to the field of optical signal modulation. Including: generating a pair of orthogonal pilot signals with the same amplitude, correlating the sampled electrical signals with the corresponding pilot signals, calculating the correlation coefficient under different bias voltages within the fine adjustment range, and using the bias voltage corresponding to a correlation coefficient of 0 as the bias Set the voltage value, the electrical signal is the coherent detection electrical signal after the center frequency shifts the second optical signal and the third optical signal, the second optical signal is the remaining optical signal of the optical carrier except the first optical signal, and the third optical signal is K of the optical signal modulated by the IQ modulator 2 %. The invention combines coherent detection and correlation detection, adds relatively high-power local oscillator light when the signal light power is small, obtains a relatively high-power signal output, is easy to detect weak signals, and improves sensitivity. The bias voltage control is realized by monitoring the correlation coefficient, so that the correlation coefficient is 0 at the optimum bias voltage, which effectively improves the system sensitivity and control accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical signal modulation, and more particularly relates to a pilot-based bias voltage control device and method for an IQ modulator. Background technique [0002] In recent years, optical fiber communication systems have been continuously developing towards higher speeds, longer distances, and higher capacities. It has been found through research that combining multiple modulation and multiplexing technologies can effectively help improve the total transmission capacity of optical fiber communication systems. Therefore, In order to meet the needs of the system today, various high-order modulation techniques have become a hot topic of research. [0003] The IQ modulator plays a key role in generating high-order modulation format signals at the transmitting end of the optical fiber communication system. The IQ modulator consists of two Mach-Zed (MZM) modulators and a phase modulator. During normal operation, the th...
