Wavelength control device for adjustable optical module, and method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a wavelength control device for an adjustable optical module, and a method thereof. The wavelength control device comprises a beam splitter, a filter, a first detector and a second detector, wherein an optical signal of an adjustable optical module is divided into a first optical path and a second optical path through the beam splitter; the first optical path is connected with an input end of the first detector; an output end of the first detector outputs a reference signal; and the second optical path is connected with the second detector through the filter and outputs a standard signal. The wavelength control device for an adjustable optical module and the method thereof aim at and reasonably utilize the large data volume of a laser of the adjustable optical module to become efficient and controllable and have high dynamic stability by means of linear compensation, interpolation processing, dichotomy and other applications. Besides, all the wavelengths do not generate great vibration, and basically, each wavelength can approach to the locked state and then can achieve dynamic balance through 2-5 cycles so that the time is short and too many vibrations are not generated.
