Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of high-speed optoelectronic long-distance communications, and in particular to a method and device for suppressing interference in O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of technologies such as artificial intelligence, large-scale model training, and cloud computing, the demand for computing power is exploding. Modern data centers, as core infrastructure for basic computing power, are experiencing a continuous increase in both scale and number. Data transmission rates within modern data centers are rapidly doubling from 25 Gbit / s per channel to 50 Gbit / s per channel and then to 100 Gbit / s per channel. Inter-data center communications are becoming increasingly frequent, with transmission distances extending from tens to hundreds of meters within a data center to 10 km between data centers.

[0003] Fiber optic technology is an important foundation for modern computing and communication technologies. Its almost unlimited data transmission bandwidth and low-loss long-distance transmission characteristics make fiber optic technology one of the important communication technologies for modern data centers, and it is particularly suitable for high-speed transmission in modern data centers.

[0004] As the data transmission rate of data centers continues to increase, it is currently evolving from 100Gbit / s per channel to 200Gbit / s per channel. The number of channels is constantly increasing, and the data transmission range is also expanding from a few hundred meters to over 10km. Combined with optical fiber transmission technology, the latest technological development trends in data centers are also facing new challenges, which are manifested as follows: (1) The nonlinear effect of long-distance optical fiber transmission causes new harmonics to be generated between channels, causing channel signals to interfere with each other, seriously affecting the signal transmission quality; (2) Long-distance optical fiber transmission will bring greater signal loss, resulting in weak signals at the receiving end, reducing signal transmission quality. Existing improved technical means include controlling the polarization state of optical signals, that is, channels 1 and 4 use X polarization, and channels 2 and 3 use Y polarization, reducing the signal interaction between channels to reduce harmonic interference, but in essence the interference signal is still within the operating wavelength range of the channel.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the problem of signal quality degradation caused by long-distance optical fiber transmission of high-speed signals, it is necessary to suppress interference in multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission. By using specific devices and technologies, the quality of multi-channel signals after long-distance optical fiber transmission can be significantly improved to meet the data transmission and exchange needs of future communications.

[0038] Example 1: Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides an O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression device, which includes: an N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response combiner 1, a single long-distance single-mode optical fiber 2, and an N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response splitter 3.

[0039] The O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression device is aimed at a multi-channel optoelectronic transceiver system with N channels ( ), operating within the LWDM channel wavelength range of the O band.

[0040] The N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband and smooth-response combiner is used to combine N independent optical signals modulated at a rate of s into a total optical signal; the total optical signal includes N optical signals.

[0041] The long-distance single-mode optical fiber is used to transmit the total optical signal. The length of the long-distance single-mode optical fiber is not less than 10 km.

[0042] The N-channel high isolation, low loss, wideband smooth response combiner is used to decompose the total optical signal into N independent optical signals and send them to N independent demodulation devices for signal demodulation, thus completing the long-distance optical fiber transmission of high-speed signals. The rate s needs to meet Gbit / s.

[0043] The N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband, smooth-response combiner and splitter are optical devices operating within the LWDM operating wavelength range of the O-band. They each feature an 800 GHz channel spacing, polarization mode dispersion of less than 0.2 ps, an optical insertion loss of less than 1.4 dB per channel, an operating wavelength range greater than 2.5 nm, and a smooth amplitude response within the LWDM operating wavelength range, with a response flatness better than 0.16 dB. The isolation between the N channels is greater than 40 dB. Designed and manufactured using a filter-based process, the devices measure 100 mm × 80 mm × 10 mm. Operating within the LWDM operating wavelength range of the O-band, the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband, smooth-response combiner and splitter exhibit high isolation, low insertion loss, a smooth amplitude response, a wide operating bandwidth, and a compact structure. The N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band, smooth-response combiner device and the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band, smooth-response splitter device are essentially the same device; based on the reversible characteristics of the optical path, the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band, smooth-response combiner device and the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band, smooth-response splitter device can replace each other.

[0044] In order to suppress the nonlinear harmonic interference caused by single long-distance optical fiber transmission with a rate of s within the LWDM operating wavelength range of the O band, the high isolation, low insertion loss, smooth amplitude effect, and large operating bandwidth of the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response combiner and the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response splitter are combined. Therefore, a non-channel center wavelength can be selected as the operating wavelength in each channel. The selectable wavelength range of each channel is greater than 2nm, and both have the characteristics of low insertion loss, smooth amplitude response, and high isolation, with the advantage of flexible wavelength setting.

[0045] In order to suppress the nonlinear harmonic interference caused by single long-distance optical fiber transmission, it is necessary to predict the adjacent channel harmonic interference, mainly to analyze the mechanism of adjacent channel harmonic interference, and to carry out the prediction and judgment of adjacent channel harmonic interference.

[0046] The broadband characteristics (>2.5nm), high isolation (>40dB), and smoothness (flatness better than 0.16dB) of the multi-channel, high-isolation, low-loss, broadband, smooth-response combiner and splitter devices described above provide an excellent foundation for suppressing nonlinear harmonic interference caused by long-haul single-mode fiber transmission. The high-isolation, low-loss, broadband, smooth-response combiner and splitter devices enable flexible selection of operating wavelengths within each channel (broadband and smoothness). By leveraging adjacent channel harmonic interference prediction and harmonic interference wavelength optimization technologies, harmonic interference is controlled outside the channel wavelength and its amplitude is further suppressed (high isolation), completely eliminating the impact of harmonic interference on high-speed communications while minimizing transmission losses (low loss).

[0047] The adjacent channel harmonic interference prediction technology analyzes the mixing interference caused by nonlinear dispersion effects in long-haul single-mode optical fibers, which generates new mixing harmonics. These mixing harmonics can disrupt the signal quality of the original channel, especially when the mixing harmonics and the original operating wavelength are within the same operating wavelength channel. Harmonic interference prediction technology primarily analyzes the wavelength or frequency of harmonic interference generated by adjacent channels.

[0048] Example 2: In this embodiment, the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band smooth response combiner device is a 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band smooth response combiner device (N=4), and the N-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band smooth response splitter device is a 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, wide-band smooth response splitter device (N=4).

[0049] Through high-speed electrical signals (single channel rate Gbit / s) modulated 4 optical signals (4 wavelengths, within the LWDM operating wavelength range), respectively working on the four channels in the LWDM operating wavelength range, are synthesized into a total optical signal through a 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response combiner, and the total optical signal contains 4 optical signals; then the total optical signal is transmitted through a long-distance single-mode optical fiber, the distance of which exceeds 10km. Nonlinear interference will occur during the transmission process of the long-distance single-mode optical fiber, resulting in serious inter-channel interference and reducing the transmission quality of the total optical signal. The total optical signal is then decomposed into 4 optical signals of different wavelengths through a 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response splitter, and sent to 4 independent demodulation devices for signal demodulation, converting the high-speed electrical signal (single-channel rate Gbit / s) to complete the long-distance optical fiber transmission of high-speed signals.

[0050] The frequency responses of the 4-channel high isolation, low loss, wide frequency smooth response combiner and the 4-channel high isolation, low loss, wide frequency smooth response splitter are as follows: Figure 2As shown, the LWDM operating wavelength range in the O band has four channels: channel 1, channel 2, channel 3 and channel 4. The operating wavelength range of channel 1 is : ; The operating wavelength range of the channel 2 is : ; The operating wavelength range of the channel 3 is : ; The operating wavelength range of the channel 4 is : That is, the LWDM operating wavelength range of the O band of the 4-channel high isolation low loss broadband smooth response multiplexing device and the 4-channel high isolation low loss broadband smooth response splitter device : According to the LWDM operating wavelength range of the O band , the frequency range of any channel m is ,in, , is the starting frequency of channel m, is the end frequency of channel m; then the LWDM operating frequency range of O band is for .

[0051] LWDM operating wavelength range in O-band The 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth-response combiner and splitter devices have an amplitude response flatness better than 0.16dB, with insertion losses of 0.95dB for channel 1, 1.4dB for channel 2, 0.5dB for channel 3, and 0.35dB for channel 4. The operating wavelength range of these devices covers LWDM operating channels, with wavelengths greater than 2.5nm: 2.8nm for channel 1, 2.7nm for channel 2, 3.2nm for channel 3, and 2.9nm for channel 4. Channel isolation exceeds 40dB.

[0073] The harmonic interference wavelength control and optimization technology method is applied to the harmonic interference and wavelength control of the 4-channel optoelectronic transceiver system, and the final optimal frequency combination The wavelengths of the corresponding four channels are: 1294.9nm for channel 1, 1300.7nm for channel 2, 1305.35nm for channel 3, and 1308.5nm for channel 4. The primary adjacent channel first harmonics generated within the 1293.5nm to 1311.5nm range are 1297.6nm and 1311.2nm, both outside the wavelength range of the four operating channels of O-band LWDM. This achieves the design goal of eliminating major harmonic interference outside the operating channel wavelength range.

[0074] The harmonic interference wavelength control and optimization technology is another key to removing the harmonic interference generated by long-distance optical fiber transmission to outside the wavelength range of the four working channels of LWDM. If the harmonic interference wavelength control and optimization measures are not adopted, and the traditional channel center is used as the working wavelength, the generated harmonic interference will coincide with the working wavelength, causing greater interference. Figure 3 , channel 2, channel 3, and channel 4 operate at the center wavelength of their respective channels. Long-distance optical fiber transmission will produce a harmonic that falls exactly on the center wavelength of channel 1, which will significantly interfere with the communication quality.

[0075] (7) The O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression method further includes the following steps:

[0076] Adjust the frequency to the final optimal frequency combination Four independent optical signals modulated at a rate of s are input into the O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression device. After passing through the 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response combiner and the long-distance single-mode optical fiber in sequence, all adjacent channel harmonic interferences are locked outside the band of the 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response splitter. After continuing to pass through the 4-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response splitter, the amplitude of all out-of-band harmonic interferences is suppressed, with a suppression amplitude of >10.5dB, while the amplitude of the normal signal in the band is suppressed by <1.5dB, thereby further improving the signal-to-noise ratio by >9dB.

[0077] After the main harmonic interference has been excluded from the wavelength range of the four working channels of O-band LWDM based on the harmonic interference wavelength control and optimization technology, in order to further suppress the amplitude of harmonic interference, the four-channel combined signal transmitted through a long-distance single-mode optical fiber of 10km is passed through a four-channel high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response splitter to separate the combined signal into four independent signals. The high isolation characteristics of the splitter further suppress the amplitude of harmonic interference. Figure 4 Within the four working channels of O-band LWDM, the maximum amplitude attenuation of the frequency response is less than 1.5dB (smooth characteristic). Outside the four working channel wavelengths of O-band LWDM, the harmonic interference amplitude is further suppressed (>10.5dB) (high isolation characteristic), further improving the signal-to-noise ratio of long-distance single-mode optical fiber by more than 9dB.

[0078] from Figure 5 and Figure 6 To demonstrate the effectiveness of high-speed signal transmission using a four-channel, high-isolation, low-loss, broadband, smooth-response multiplexing / demultiplexing device, along with harmonic interference wavelength control and optimization technology, four channels of 200Gbit / s signals were modulated and transmitted through an O-band, high-speed, multi-channel, long-haul optical fiber transmission interference suppression device, for a total transmission rate of 800Gbit / s. This was compared to a conventional setup using the four-channel center wavelength as the operating wavelength, similarly modulating four channels of 200Gbit / s signals and transmitting them through an O-band, high-speed, multi-channel, long-haul optical fiber transmission interference suppression device. Signal quality was compared by observing the eye diagram of one channel after demodulation of the high-speed signal through the four-channel, long-haul optical fiber transmission system. Figure 5 Eye diagram of one channel obtained using traditional wavelength setting, Figure 6 This is the same channel eye diagram obtained after using the O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression method provided by the present invention. It can be clearly seen that the signal eye diagram obtained by using the O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression method provided by the present invention is clear, the signal eye is large, and the interference is small. The calculated bit error rate is at the 1E-15 level; while the signal eye diagram obtained by the traditional method is fuzzy, the eye is closed, and the calculated bit error rate is at the 1E-3 level, which does not meet the bit error rate standard of less than 2.4E-4.

[0079] The present invention provides an O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression method and device. Based on a high-isolation, low-loss, broadband smooth response multiplexer / demultiplexer, and utilizing its advantages of high isolation, low loss, large bandwidth, and smooth response, the invention combines the prediction technology of harmonic interference and the control and optimization technology of harmonic interference wavelength to effectively control the wavelength and suppress the amplitude of harmonic interference caused by long-distance (≥10km) optical fiber transmission of high-speed signals (≥200Gbit / s per channel). The performance is as follows: (1) the harmonic interference wavelength is controlled outside the wavelengths of the four working channels of the O-band LWDM; (2) the harmonic interference amplitude is further suppressed by 9dB on the basis of the above, which improves the quality of high-speed signal transmission and improves the system bit error rate by 12 orders of magnitude. Based on the above implementation approach and effect, the O-band high-speed multi-channel long-distance optical fiber transmission interference suppression method and device have significant performance advantages and anti-interference advantages, laying a good foundation for higher-speed and longer-distance optical fiber transmission in future data centers.
