Abstract

The invention relates to an SOA-based ultralow-noise broadband light source for a fiber-optic gyroscope. The broadband light source is composed of a two-way backward structure erbium-doped fiber light source and an SOA, and comprises a 980 nm laser, a wavelength division multiplexer, an erbium-doped fiber, an adjustable attenuator, a Faraday rotator mirror, a fiber isolator and the SOA (semiconductor optical amplifier). In order to obtain the maximum noise reduction effect, optimization design is carried out from two aspects: RIN (relative intensity noise) suppression and output spectrum broadening. On one hand, the injection current of the SOA and the pump laser is accurately adjusted, so that the SOA works in a deep saturation state; on the other hand, the optical path loss coefficient is optimized, so that the light source has the maximum output spectrum width. Compared with an erbium-doped fiber light source with the same spectrum type, the wide-spectrum light source has the characteristics of ultralow relative intensity noise, simple structure and convenience in integration, and has important significance in application of strategic high-precision fiber-optic gyroscopes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wide-spectrum fiber optic light source, more particularly to an ultra-low noise wide-spectrum light source for an SOA-based fiber optic gyroscope. Background technique [0002] As high-precision inertial navigation and guidance systems have higher and higher requirements for fiber optic gyroscopes, the development of strategic high-precision fiber optic gyroscopes has important theoretical and military significance. [0003] Among the various light sources used in high-precision fiber optic gyroscope systems, broadband light sources can effectively reduce system coherence errors caused by backscattering, back reflection, polarization cross-coupling, Kerr effect and various environmental noises. It is the preferred light source for high-precision fiber optic gyroscopes. However, with the continuous deepening of research on fiber optic gyroscopes at home and abroad, the relative intensity noise of broadband light sources has b...
