Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of wireless optical communication, and particularly relates to a reverse modulation full-duplex communication device and method based on phase and amplitude modulation. Background Technique
[0002] Free space optical communication is a wireless optical communication technology using laser as the carrier, which has the advantages of low cost, large capacity, good confidentiality, fast network construction, and no need to occupy spectrum resources. A free space optical communication system generally requires two terminals, namely an optical transmitter and an optical receiver, to be aligned, and is equipped with a PAT (Pointing, Acquisition and Tracking) system to achieve point-to-point communication. However, such a system has high cost, large volume, and heavy weight.
[0003] In a reverse modulation wireless optical communication system, the transmitter and the receiver are placed at the interrogation end, and the other end is a reverse modulation end composed of a reflector and a modulator. The working principle is as follows: the interrogation end emits an unmodulated light beam to the reverse modulation end, the reverse modulation end modulates the light beam and returns it along the original direction, and then the interrogation end demodulates the returned light beam to achieve unidirectional free space optical communication. This system does not require an automatic tracking system, which can greatly reduce the volume and weight of one end. It can be widely applied to small platforms such as small satellites, UAV reconnaissance, and ocean exploration.
[0004] As a special form of reverse modulation wireless optical communication, reverse modulation full-duplex communication can solve the problem that reverse modulation can only achieve one-way communication. The earliest research on reverse modulation full-duplex communication was a single-wavelength single-beam reverse modulation full-duplex communication achieved by a scholar in Mexico in 2004 using circular polarization keying (CPK) coding. In 2004, Shay Thomas M. et al. studied the modulating retro-reflector based free space optical (MRR FSO) system of reverse modulation. In 2015, Zhang Peng et al. proposed a full-duplex reverse modulation free space optical communication structure using dual-wavelength laser emission, and based on this structure, the intensity modulation and demodulation mode was simulated and analyzed for the full-duplex communication link between a ground station and a near-Earth small satellite at a communication distance of 300 km and a communication rate of 1 GHz. In the same year, Qiu Hao et al. proposed a single-source full-duplex MRR FSO scheme, where the on-off keying (OOK) modulation was used for the uplink and amplitude modulation was used for the downlink. In 2017, Chen Jing et al. proposed a reverse modulation system based on a lithium niobate phase modulator and a piezoelectric ceramic, using phase shift keying (PSK) / on-off keying (OOK), which can operate in a full-duplex mode, and its feasibility was verified through simulation experiments. In 2018, Zhang Huan proposed a full-duplex communication channel model based on indoor visible light, and through experiments, a full-duplex communication with a downlink rate of 5 Mbit / s and an uplink rate of 2 Kbit / s was stably achieved at a distance of 3 m. In 2018, Ke Xizheng et al. and in 2019, Yang Yufeng et al. both studied the full-duplex communication system based on a single source of indoor visible light, realizing the function of visible light for both lighting and communication, and the experiments proved that the communication of the uplink and downlink of the communication system does not interfere with each other and the communication effect is good. In 2019, Yin Xiaoli et al. proposed a full-duplex free space optical communication system based on reverse modulation of orbital angular momentum (OAM), which can perform high-order modulation and improve the frequency band utilization rate of the system.
[0005] There is less research on the full-duplex MRR FSO communication link abroad. In domestic research, it mainly focuses on experimental research on indoor visible light, with certain experimental limitations. In the experiment of realizing MRR full-duplex through dual wavelengths, there is a problem that the focal points of the same lens for different wavelengths are inconsistent, and the requirements for devices are relatively high. Achieving full-duplex based on OAM can reach high-order modulation of any OAM mode, but OAM beams are sensitive and easily damaged, and wavefront distortion is likely to occur. Based on the current research status of MRRFSO at home and abroad, it is still necessary to further study and solve the problem of the simplex communication limitation of the reverse modulation free space optical communication system.

Optical antenna one and optical antenna two propagate optical signals through the atmospheric channel. Among them, the incident laser beam of the acousto-optic modulator 3 comes from the optical fiber splitter 2.
[0099] Taking the direction of the amplitude-modulated signal light incident on optical antenna two as the front, the beam splitter 7 is placed obliquely behind optical antenna two, and is used to split the amplitude-modulated signal light emitted by optical antenna two. One beam enters the first erbium-doped fiber amplifier 11, and the other beam enters the focusing lens 8. Both the first erbium-doped fiber amplifier 11 and the first optical detector 12 are arranged in the transmission direction of one path of signal light of the beam splitter 7. The first erbium-doped fiber amplifier 11 is used to amplify the incident amplitude-modulated signal light and emit it into the first optical detector 12. The first optical detector 12 is used to perform photoelectric detection on the amplitude-modulated signal light to obtain the amplitude information of the signal light.

Among them, the incident optical signal of the second erbium-doped fiber amplifier 13 comes from the first optical antenna, and the incident laser beam of the polarization controller 14 comes from the fiber splitter 2.
[0102] Embodiment 3
[0103] As Figure 2 shown, this embodiment provides a reverse modulation full-duplex communication method based on phase and amplitude modulation, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0104] At the interrogation end, the laser generated by the laser 1 is split into two by the fiber splitter 2. One path enters the acousto-optic modulator 3 for amplitude modulation at the interrogation end according to the first modulation signal, and then is sent after passing through the fiber circulator 6 and the first optical antenna, and is transmitted in the atmospheric channel. The other path is transmitted to the polarization controller 14. The optical field strength of the unmodulated light at the interrogation end is:
[0105] ,
[0106] In the formula, is the phase constant, is the frequency of light, is the amplitude constant.
[0107] The first driver 4 drives the acousto-optic modulator 3 to modulate the amplitude of the incident optical signal according to the magnitude of the first modulation signal , so the optical field strength after amplitude modulation is:
[0108] .
[0109] The optical signal amplitude-modulated at the interrogation end is amplified by the fiber amplifier 5, output by the fiber circulator 6 and reaches the first optical antenna, and is transmitted in the atmospheric channel.
[0110] The light beam transmitted from the interrogation end is received by the optical antenna 2 at the reverse modulation end, and is split into two at the beam splitter 7. One path reaches the focusing lens 8; the other path of light enters the first erbium-doped fiber amplifier 11 for optical signal amplification; the amplified optical signal enters the first photodetector 12 for direct detection. The first photodetector 12 for direct detection responds to the change in the optical signal power, and can only respond to the change in the optical signal power. The first photocurrent generated by it corresponds to the demodulated
[0111] signal:
[0112] wherein, is the responsivity of the photodetector, with the unit of A / W, is a constant; for light waves, the photodetector outputs an amplitude value. Since this frequency cannot be clearly observed in the first photodetector 12, the optical high-frequency term is omitted. Therefore, the above formula can be written as:
[0113]
[0114] Thus, the output of the signal can be obtained.
[0115] The piezoelectric ceramic 9 is arranged at the focal point of the focusing lens 8. The light signal after the first modulation passes through the atmospheric channel and is converged by the focusing lens 8 onto the piezoelectric ceramic 9. Driven by the second driver 10, the piezoelectric ceramic 9 vibrates back and forth with the magnitude of the externally applied signal to generate a phase shift, thereby modulating the phase of the light signal.
[0116] The amplitude-phase modulated optical electric field intensity obtained after the second modulation by the piezoelectric ceramic 9 is:
[0117]
[0118] Thus, the signal is loaded onto the phase of the light, and the laser is phase-modulated at the reverse modulation end.
[0119] Due to the "cat's eye" effect, the light beam transmitted from the interrogation end is reflected by the reverse modulation end and returns to the interrogation end in the original direction. After passing through the optical antenna 1 and the fiber optic circulator 6 at the interrogation end, it enters the second erbium-doped fiber amplifier 13 from the fiber input end face to amplify the optical signal, and then outputs and enters the optical coupler 15. At the same time, the local oscillator light passing through the fiber splitter 2 and the polarization controller 14 also enters the optical coupler 15. The polarization controller 14 adjusts the polarization state of the local oscillator light.
[0120] The optical electric field intensity of the local oscillator It can be written as:
[0121] ,
[0122] wherein, is the phase constant of the local oscillator light, is the frequency of the local oscillator light, is the amplitude constant of the local oscillator light.
[0123] After passing through the polarization controller 14, assuming that the polarization directions of the signal light and the local oscillator light are the same, according to the theory of coherent detection, the intensity of the optical signal projected onto the second optical detector 16 through the optical coupler 15 is , and the detected optical power is , is a constant, is the power of the amplitude-phase modulated light, is the power of the local oscillator light.
[0124] ,
[0125] Usually , then the photocurrent generated by the second optical detector 16 for coherent detection is:
[0126] ,
[0127] Omitting the DC term:
[0128] ,
[0129] After being processed by the signal processing unit 17, we get:
[0130] ,
[0131] wherein, , , , are all constants, eliminating them, and then performing an inverse cosine operation, so that the signal can be output.
