[0065] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present disclosure can be accurately conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0066] For the existing method of measuring the parameters of the optoelectronic modulator, the light power values under different voltage values are measured point by point to complete the measurement of the parameters of the optoelectronic modulator. However, the measurement workload of this method is large, the measurement time is long, and the efficiency of determining the parameters of the optoelectronic modulator is low. Embodiments of the present application provide a parameter determination method of an optoelectronic modulator, as shown in Figure 1 The method comprises:

[0067] 101, obtaining a characteristic voltage and a light power input value of a target optoelectronic modulator.

[0068] In the embodiment of the present application, the target optoelectronic modulator is an optoelectronic modulator to be tested. The electro-optic crystal of the optoelectronic modulator can be a lithium niobate crystal, a gallium arsenide crystal, a lithium tantalate crystal, etc., which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. The optical power input value is the value of the initial optical power input to the target optoelectronic modulator in the process of testing the target optoelectronic modulator. The characteristic voltage is extracted from the optical power-voltage fitting curve, and the characteristic voltage is the optical power peak voltage and the optical power valley voltage in the optical power-voltage fitting curve, including the first characteristic voltage and the second characteristic voltage. The actual measured value of the optical power corresponding to the first characteristic voltage and the second characteristic voltage can be used for the target parameter of the target optoelectronic modulator. The optical power-voltage fitting curve is fitted based on the preset input voltage of the target optoelectronic modulator and the optical power value collected under the preset input voltage. The preset input voltage can be a preset number of voltage values randomly selected in the input voltage range of the target optoelectronic modulator, or a preset number of voltage values set according to the experience value of voltage debugging, wherein the preset number can be 4, 5, or more than 5, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0069] It should be noted that by inputting a preset number of voltage values to the target optoelectronic modulator and collecting the corresponding optical power, the curve of the optical power of the target optoelectronic modulator changing with the voltage value can be fitted according to the voltage value and the optical power, and then the characteristic voltage corresponding to the optical power used for calculating the parameter can be extracted, avoiding testing the optical power corresponding to all voltage values in the voltage range, greatly reducing the optical power test amount and the test time, thereby effectively improving the efficiency of extracting the characteristic voltage.

[0070] 102、According to the first characteristic voltage, a first voltage input value is configured, and a first optical power collected under the first voltage input value is obtained. According to the second characteristic voltage, a second voltage input value is configured, and a second optical power collected under the second voltage input value is obtained.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the voltage is input to the target optoelectronic modulator by the direct current source, and the current execution subject is a computer device connected to the control end of the direct current source. The current execution end controls the direct current source to input the corresponding voltage to the target optoelectronic modulator by configuring the voltage input value to the control end of the direct current source. After obtaining the first characteristic voltage and the second characteristic voltage, in order to measure the actual value of the optical power of the target optoelectronic modulator under the first characteristic voltage and the second characteristic voltage respectively, specifically, the current execution subject configures the first characteristic voltage as the first voltage input value, so that the direct current source inputs the voltage to the target optoelectronic modulator according to the first voltage input value, and after the optical power meter collects the first optical power under the first voltage input value, the current execution subject obtains the collected first optical power from the optical power meter. Similarly, the current execution subject configures the second characteristic voltage as the second voltage input value, so that the direct current source inputs the voltage to the target optoelectronic modulator according to the second voltage input value, and after the optical power meter collects the second optical power under the second voltage input value, the current execution subject obtains the collected second optical power from the optical power meter. It should be noted that the configuration order of the first voltage input value and the second voltage input value can be customized according to the actual application scene, and the collection order of the first optical power and the second optical power corresponds to the input order of the voltage value, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitation on the configuration order of the voltage.

[0072] 103. Calculate the target parameter of the target optoelectronic modulator according to the first optical power, the second optical power, the optical power input value and the characteristic voltage.

[0073] In the embodiment of the present application, the target parameter is a parameter representing the working performance of the target optoelectronic modulator, such as optical power insertion loss, polarization value, bias voltage, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. For example, the first optical power is the maximum optical power, and the second optical power is the minimum optical power, and the polarization value can be calculated according to the maximum optical power and the minimum optical power. The characteristic voltage is the optical power peak voltage and the optical power valley voltage in the optical power voltage fitting curve, the actual optical power measured at the optical power peak voltage is the actual maximum value of the optical power, i.e. the first optical power, and the actual optical power measured at the optical power valley voltage is the actual minimum value of the optical power, i.e. the second optical power. Since the first optical power and the second optical power are both actual measurement values, the accuracy of the calculation result can be effectively guaranteed according to the first optical power and the second optical power, so as to reduce the number of optical power tests while guaranteeing the accuracy of the optoelectronic modulator parameters, thereby effectively improving the efficiency of the optoelectronic modulator parameter measurement.

[0074] In one embodiment of the present application, in order to further illustrate and limit, as shown in Figure 2 Before the step of obtaining the characteristic voltage and the optical power input value of the target optoelectronic modulator, the method further comprises:

[0075] 201. Obtain the output optical power data of the target photoelectric modulator under a preset input voltage.

[0076] 202. The preset input voltage and the output optical power data are fitted to obtain the optical power voltage fitting curve of the target optoelectronic modulator, and the optical power voltage fitting curve is verified.

[0077] 203. If the verification result is that the verification is passed, the voltage value corresponding to the optical power feature point in the optical power voltage fitting curve is extracted to obtain the feature voltage.

[0078] In this embodiment of the invention, the output optical power data is the optical power data corresponding to the output of the target opto-modulator after applying voltage to the target opto-modulator according to each preset input voltage. Different preset input voltages correspond to different output optical powers. The optical power data is fitted with data points that change with the preset input voltage to obtain an optical power-voltage fitting curve reflecting the trend of optical power change. Specifically, the least squares method can be used to fit the data, and this embodiment of the invention does not make specific limitations. After obtaining the optical power-voltage fitting curve, in order to ensure the correctness of the fitting curve, the fitting curve is verified. If the fitting curve passes the verification, the optical power feature points are extracted, that is, the voltage values ​​corresponding to the maximum and minimum optical power points, respectively. The voltage values ​​corresponding to an adjacent set of maximum and minimum optical power points are used as feature voltages.

[0079] It should be noted that, as Figure 3 The figure shows a comparison between the fitted curve of optical power and voltage and the measured curve of optical power and voltage. The fitted curve and the curve plotted from the measured values ​​of optical power and voltage scanned point by point show the same trend. Therefore, based on the voltages corresponding to the maximum and minimum optical power points in the fitted curve, accurate extraction of characteristic voltages can be achieved.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present invention, for further explanation and limitation, the step of verifying the optical power voltage fitting curve includes:

[0081] Obtain the attribute information of the target optoelectronic modulator, and obtain the preset optical power-voltage relationship curve that matches the attribute information from the relationship curve mapping relationship set;

[0082] Calculate the similarity between the optical power-voltage fitting curve and the preset optical power-voltage relationship curve;

[0083] If the curve similarity is greater than or equal to a preset similarity threshold, then the verification result is determined to be a pass.

[0084] If the curve similarity is less than a preset similarity threshold, it is determined that the verification result is failed.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, the light power voltage fitting curve obtained by fitting is verified based on a preset light power voltage relationship curve. The preset light power voltage relationship curve is a fitting curve matched with the attribute information of the target optoelectronic modulator. The similarity between the preset light power voltage relationship curve and the light power voltage fitting curve is calculated, and the verification result is determined according to the comparison result of the similarity and the preset similarity threshold. For example, if the calculated similarity is 98%, it is considered that the verification result of the light power voltage fitting curve is passed, and if the calculated similarity is 90%, it is considered that the verification result of the light power voltage fitting curve is failed. The similarity of the two fitting curves can be calculated based on the Euclidean distance of the light power value under the same voltage value, or other similarity algorithms, which are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0086] It should be noted that, since the trend of the light power of different optical crystals or different models of optoelectronic modulators varies with the voltage, in order to ensure the accuracy of the light power voltage fitting curve obtained by fitting, the light power voltage fitting curve is verified based on the preset light power voltage relationship curve with the same attribute information as the current target optoelectronic modulator, which can effectively ensure the accuracy of the light power voltage fitting curve, the accuracy of the characteristic voltage, and the accuracy of the target parameter.

[0087] In one embodiment of the present application, in order to further illustrate and limit, before the step of verifying the light power voltage fitting curve, the method further comprises:

[0088] Obtaining the light power point-by-point voltage scanning data of the optoelectronic modulator of the global attribute type;

[0089] Generating the preset light power voltage relationship curve based on the power point-by-point voltage scanning data of each attribute type;

[0090] Constructing the mapping between the preset light power voltage relationship curve and the corresponding attribute type to obtain a set of relationship curve mapping relationships.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to construct the preset optical power-voltage relationship curve, for each attribute type of the optical-electric modulator of all attribute types, the optical power-voltage scanning data is collected. For example, the voltage range is 0-15v, and the optical power-voltage scanning data is the actual measurement data of the optical power under 0.1V, 0.2V, 0.3V,..., 14.9V, 15V collected point by point with 0.1v as a voltage unit. The preset optical power-voltage relationship curve is generated according to the actual measurement data of the optical power corresponding to each voltage value. The mapping relationship between the obtained preset optical power-voltage relationship curve and the attribute type of the corresponding optical-electric modulator is established. The attribute type can be the product model of the optical-electric modulator, the optical crystal type, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0092] In an embodiment of the present application, in order to further illustrate and limit, the step of calculating the target parameter of the target optical-electric modulator according to the first optical power, the second optical power, the optical power input value and the characteristic voltage includes:

[0093] calculating an optical power loss value according to the first optical power and the optical power input value;

[0094] calculating a polarization value according to the first optical power and the second optical power;

[0095] calculating the difference between the first characteristic voltage and the second characteristic voltage to obtain a bias voltage.

[0096] In the embodiment of the present application, the target parameter includes the optical power loss value, the polarization value and the bias voltage. The optical power loss value is set as IL, the optical power input value is set as IL0, the first optical power is set as IL1, the second optical power is set as IL2, the first characteristic voltage is set as DC Vπ1, and the second characteristic voltage is set as DC Vπ2. max The optical power loss value is IL=IL0-(-10*logIL1-IL2)(1). max The polarization value is set as ER, and the second optical power is set as IL2. min The polarization value is ER=-10*logIL2(2). max The bias voltage is set as DC Vπ, and the first characteristic voltage is set as DC Vπ1, and the second characteristic voltage is set as DC Vπ2. min The bias voltage is DC Vπ=DC Vπ2-DC Vπ1(3).

[0097] In an embodiment of the present application, in order to further illustrate and limit, after the step of calculating the target parameter of the target optical-electric modulator according to the first optical power, the second optical power, the optical power input value and the characteristic voltage, the method further includes:

[0098] If the target parameter is greater than the first preset parameter threshold or less than the second preset parameter threshold, the preset input voltage will be updated.

[0099] The optical power voltage fitting curve is regenerated based on the updated preset input voltage to obtain the updated optical power voltage fitting curve, and the feature voltage is extracted based on the updated optical power voltage fitting curve.

[0100] In this embodiment of the invention, after calculating the target parameter, to ensure the accuracy of the target parameter result, the target parameter is compared with a first preset parameter threshold and a second preset parameter threshold. If the target parameter is within the range defined by the first and second preset parameter thresholds, it indicates that the target parameter is accurate; if the target parameter exceeds the range defined by the first and second preset parameter thresholds, it indicates that the target parameter is incorrect. The first preset parameter threshold can be configured according to the lower limit standard of the target parameter specification value, and the second preset parameter threshold can be configured according to the upper limit standard of the target parameter specification value. For example, in the specification of optical power loss value, the upper limit standard is 'a' and the lower limit standard is 'b'. The first preset parameter threshold is configured as 'a', and the second preset parameter threshold is configured as 'b'. If the optical power loss value c in the target parameter has a < c < b, then the optical power loss value is qualified; otherwise, the optical power loss value is determined to be unqualified. If the target parameter is incorrect, it may be due to the excessive concentration of the preset input voltage values, which leads to inaccurate extraction of the characteristic voltage in the optical power voltage fitting curve. Therefore, when the target parameter is incorrect, the preset input voltage is reset and the optical power voltage fitting curve is regenerated in order to extract new characteristic voltages and remeasure the first and second optical power under the characteristic voltages.

[0101] This invention provides a method for determining the parameters of an optoelectronic modulator. In this embodiment, the method acquires the characteristic voltage and optical power input value of the target optoelectronic modulator. The characteristic voltage includes a first characteristic voltage and a second characteristic voltage, which are extracted from an optical power-voltage fitting curve. A first voltage input value is configured based on the first characteristic voltage, and a first optical power is acquired under the first voltage input value. A second voltage input value is configured based on the second characteristic voltage, and a second optical power is acquired under the second voltage input value. The target parameters of the target optoelectronic modulator are calculated based on the first optical power, the second optical power, the optical power input value, and the characteristic voltage. This significantly reduces the amount of optical power data measurement, shortens the measurement time, and ensures measurement accuracy, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of determining the optoelectronic modulator parameters.
