Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, and more specifically to a detection device for a transmitting end and a receiving end of an optical module. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of information technology, fiber-optic communication has become the cornerstone of modern communication networks due to its advantages such as high bandwidth, long-distance transmission and anti-electromagnetic interference. As a key component in the fiber-optic communication system, the optical module carries the important task of photoelectric conversion. With the explosive growth of data volume today, the requirements for the performance of optical modules are becoming increasingly stringent, which not only affects the stability and reliability of data transmission, but also affects the efficiency and security of the entire communication network. Therefore, the development of a device that can accurately detect the performance of the transmitter and receiver of the optical module is crucial to ensure the efficient operation of the fiber-optic communication network.
[0003] At present, the detection devices of optical modules mainly include optical power meters, bit error rate testers, spectrum analyzers, etc. These devices can perform basic tests on the transmission power, receiving sensitivity, spectral characteristics, etc. of optical modules. However, as optical modules develop towards higher speeds and smaller sizes, traditional detection devices have gradually exposed some limitations. For example, they may not meet the testing requirements of high-speed optical modules, or have problems with the compatibility of miniaturized optical modules. In addition, existing detection devices also have shortcomings in terms of multi-functional integration, automated testing, and real-time data analysis. These problems have restricted the development and application of optical module detection technology to a certain extent.
[0004] Although the existing technology has made certain progress, it still has some shortcomings. First, the existing devices can only measure optical power but cannot evaluate other important indicators, such as wavelength, bit error rate, etc. This leads to an incomplete evaluation of the overall performance of the optical module and an inability to fully understand its performance under different working conditions. Secondly, the existing devices cannot effectively monitor and control the impact of environmental factors during the test process. Environmental factors such as temperature and humidity have an important impact on the performance of optical modules, and the existing devices lack the corresponding environmental monitoring and control functions, which greatly reduces the reliability and repeatability of the test results; in addition, when processing high-speed, large-capacity optical modules, the existing devices may experience a decrease in accuracy and cannot accurately reflect the actual performance of the optical modules.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, the optical power measurement module 1 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal based on the principle of photoelectric conversion, and determines the size of the optical power by measuring the amplitude of the electrical signal. The wavelength test module 2 uses the principle of spectral analysis to determine the central wavelength of the optical signal by measuring the wavelength change when the optical signal passes through a specific medium or structure.

[0061] In the above embodiment, the input port of the optical signal distributor 9 is connected to the receiving end of the optical module, and the output port of the optical signal distributor 9 is respectively connected to the bit error rate analysis module 3 and the eye diagram analysis module 4, so as to allow the same optical signal to be distributed to multiple detection devices.
[0062] In a specific embodiment, the optical signal distributor 9 is based on the principle of optical power distribution. It uses optical coupler or optical splitter technology to copy or split the received optical signal, so that the same optical signal can be distributed to multiple detection devices. Such a design allows parallel processing of optical signals without multiple measurements of the original signal. In a detection device of an optical module transmitting end and a receiving end, the receiving end of the optical module is connected to the input port of the optical signal distributor 9 through an optical fiber jumper. The optical signal distributor 9 receives the optical signal from the optical module and distributes the signal to multiple output ports through an internal optical splitter. The output port of the distributor is connected to the bit error rate analysis module 3 and the eye diagram analysis module 4 respectively through an optical fiber jumper. Then, the bit error rate analysis module 3 and the eye diagram analysis module 4 receive the distributed optical signal and start corresponding signal detection and analysis. The control and data processing unit 6 receives data from the bit error rate analysis module 3 and the eye diagram analysis module 4, and performs further processing and analysis. Finally, the processed data is output to an external system or displayed on a user interface through a communication interface module 7.
[0063] In specific implementation, the optical signal distributor 9 allows multiple modules to detect the same signal at the same time, which greatly improves the efficiency of the test process. Through signal distribution, multiple connections and disconnections to the receiving end of the optical module are avoided, and the operation and resource consumption of the equipment are reduced. Since multiple modules analyze the same optical signal, the consistency and comparability of the test results are guaranteed. In addition, the optical signal distributor 9 provides flexibility and can connect more detection devices or modules as needed. Secondly, it avoids configuring an optical module separately for each detection module, saving costs. At the same time, parallel processing reduces test time, reduces test errors caused by signal changes, and improves test accuracy. If it is necessary to add additional test modules, the optical signal distributor 9 can easily expand the output port to adapt to new test requirements.
[0064] In the above embodiment, the optical power measurement module 1 includes a light detector 101, a signal amplifier 102, an analog-to-digital converter 103 and a microcontroller 104; the light detector 101 is connected to the signal amplifier 102 through a cable; the output end of the signal amplifier 102 is electrically connected to the input end of the analog-to-digital converter 103; the output end of the analog-to-digital converter 103 is electrically connected to the input end of the microcontroller 104.
[0065] In a specific embodiment, the optical power measurement module 1 converts the received optical signal into an electrical signal through the optical detector 101 based on the principle of photoelectric conversion. The signal amplifier 102 enhances the electrical signal to adapt to the input range of the analog-to-digital converter 103. The analog-to-digital converter 103 converts the enhanced analog electrical signal into a digital signal, and the microcontroller 104 processes the digital signal to calculate the optical power. The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0066] u1. Optical signal reception: The optical signal emitted by the transmitting end of the optical module is transmitted to the optical detector 101 of the optical power measurement module 1 through the optical fiber.
[0067] u2. Photoelectric conversion: The photodetector 101 receives the optical signal and converts it into a corresponding electrical signal.
[0068] u3. Signal amplification: The signal amplifier 102 receives the electrical signal and amplifies it to ensure that the signal strength is sufficient to be accurately measured by the analog-to-digital converter 103.
[0069] u4. Analog-to-digital conversion: The analog-to-digital converter 103 samples the amplified electrical signal and converts it into a digital signal.
[0070] u5. Data processing: The microcontroller 104 receives the digital signal and uses an algorithm to calculate the optical power value.
[0071] u6. Result display: The microcontroller 104 displays the calculated optical power value on the user interface and sends it to an external system or storage device through the communication interface module 7.
[0072] In a specific implementation, the combination of the light detector 101 and the signal amplifier 102 ensures that even weak optical signals can be accurately converted and measured. The analog-to-digital converter 103 converts analog signals into digital signals, which facilitates the microcontroller 104 to perform accurate digital processing. In addition, the microcontroller 104 not only processes data, but also displays the measurement results in real time, and realizes data sharing through the communication interface module 7. Secondly, the design of the user interface enables the operator to easily read the optical power measurement results, improving the user experience. At the same time, the entire measurement process is automatically controlled by the microcontroller 104, reducing human operating errors and improving the repeatability and reliability of the test. In addition, the design of this module allows integration with other test modules to provide comprehensive optical module performance analysis.

[0074] In a specific embodiment, the wavelength test module 2 uses a tunable laser 201 as a light source to emit optical signals of different wavelengths. When the optical signal reaches the receiving end after transmission, the signal processor 202 receives and analyzes the received optical signal and extracts the optical wavelength information therefrom. The control unit 203 is responsible for controlling the wavelength of the tunable laser and coordinating with the signal processor. The user interface 204 provides the operator with a friendly interface to monitor and control the wavelength test process. The storage unit 205 is used to store and manage test data.
[0075] In the detection devices at the transmitting and receiving ends of the optical module, the implementation process of the wavelength test module 2 is as follows:
[0076] b1. Setting the wavelength range: The operator sets the desired wavelength range through the user interface 204 .
[0077] b2. Controlling the laser wavelength: The control unit 203 controls the tunable laser 201 to emit an optical signal of a corresponding wavelength according to the wavelength range set by the operator.
[0078] b3. Sending optical signal: The tunable laser 201 emits an optical signal of a specified wavelength and transmits it to the receiving end.
[0079] b4. Receive and process the signal: The signal processor 202 at the receiving end receives the optical signal and extracts the wavelength information therein.
[0080] b5. Analysis results: The wavelength information after analysis is compared with the wavelength range set by the transmitter.
[0081] b6. Storing data: storing the wavelength test results and related data in the storage unit 205 for subsequent analysis and review.
[0082] In the specific implementation, the use of tunable lasers and precision signal processors can achieve accurate measurement of the wavelength of the optical signal, thereby improving the accuracy of the test.

Photons are generated by stimulated emission in the gain medium 211, and after amplification and resonance of the resonant cavity 213, a tunable laser signal is output. The monitoring device 215 monitors the output power and frequency of the laser, and feeds back the monitoring results to the control circuit 214 to achieve stable control of the laser. The optical isolator 216 prevents the optical signal output by the laser from being reflected back into the laser to avoid interference and damage to the laser.

[0094] In the detection device at the transmitting end and the receiving end of the optical module, the data to be sent is generated by the controller or other detection devices, serially converted through the communication interface module 7, and encoded according to the RS-485 communication protocol format. The RS-485 driver is responsible for converting the serial data into a differential signal and sending it to the communication line, while the receiver is responsible for receiving the data sent by the external system and converting the differential signal into serial data for processing by the controller or other devices. Through the RS-485 communication protocol, the communication interface module 7 exchanges data with the external system to achieve two-way transmission of information. The controller controls the working state of the communication interface module 7 as needed, including data sending, receiving, error handling, etc. After receiving the data sent by the external system, the controller performs corresponding data processing and analysis, and makes corresponding responses or control operations as needed.
