Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a vehicle-mounted multimode optical fiber for communication and power transmission. This optical fiber has excellent performance in integrating high-speed communication and power transmission, and also has characteristics such as high bandwidth and strong bending resistance. It belongs to the field of automotive communication technology. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the development of intelligent vehicles, the safety and driver assistance systems integrated into automotive electronic systems have deployed numerous sensors and processors within the vehicle. This necessitates higher-capacity data networks to support data exchange between these devices. In particular, for future autonomous vehicles, the sheer volume of data exchange between these sensors—including multiple LiDARs, millimeter-wave radars, high-definition cameras, and vehicle positioning systems—and the onboard computer is enormous. Traditional automotive systems, which primarily rely on copper cables for data transmission, struggle to meet the demands of high-capacity data transmission.
[0003] However, the next generation of mainstream automotive electronic networks is mainly based on Time Sensitive Network (TSN) architecture and switched Ethernet architecture, introducing time synchronization and time triggering mechanisms to provide high-capacity, low-latency in-vehicle network systems for automotive electronic systems. In this switched network, devices are interconnected through switches to achieve point-to-point data exchange.
[0004] Currently, cable switches are commonly used in automotive electronics, but the next generation of in-vehicle switches is evolving towards fiber optic switches. These fiber optic switches offer advantages over cable transmission, including greater capacity per single medium, lower power consumption, and stronger electromagnetic compatibility. This facilitates the integration of high-speed vehicle communication and power transmission, enabling a streamlined in-vehicle wiring system that improves the in-vehicle electromagnetic environment. Consequently, they are more suitable for space-constrained, high-density wiring systems like automotive electronics. In contrast, traditional copper cables occupy a large amount of space and are significantly limited by the confined space of automotive systems. Furthermore, copper cables suffer from insufficient capacity and lack power transmission capabilities, and are susceptible to the effects of bends and narrow passageways.
[0005] Driven by the evolving demands of automotive intelligent electronic systems, optical fibers require high coupling and transmission efficiencies while simultaneously enabling high-capacity data communication. Fiber optic transmission efficiencies can reach over 95%, enabling high-power laser transmission with excellent stability. Under long-term operating conditions, the temperature of fiber optic patch cord connectors should remain below 45°C, maintaining stable transmission efficiency. Existing multimode fibers only meet the requirements for low-power transmission, and in practical applications, the photoelectric power conversion efficiency in optical modules is often lower than 20%. Chinese Patent 201310435892.3 describes a large-core-diameter, bend-insensitive multimode fiber with a germanium-doped core and a graded refractive index profile. This fiber improves its bend resistance through a cladding with a refractive index dip. However, germanium doping in the core alters the material properties of the core layer, lowering the laser damage threshold, which is detrimental to medium-to-high power laser energy transmission. In this patent, the invented fiber is only suitable for power transmission below 100W. The patent does not describe the application effects of the invented fiber's bandwidth performance or its high-speed communication performance.
[0006] Chinese patent 201210221499.X describes a power transmission optical fiber for industrial control, medical and other fields. The glass portion of this optical fiber is made of low-hydroxyl high-purity quartz. A low-refractive-index coating with a specific composition ratio is coated on the surface of the quartz, thereby enabling the optical fiber to achieve a high numerical aperture, increasing the core's receiving angle, and playing a role in transmitting energy and simplifying the optical path system. This type of power transmission optical fiber can provide convenient and efficient coupling operation. However, the disadvantages are that the low-refractive-index coating is expensive, and under the same environmental conditions, the coating layer is prone to heating when transmitting higher energy, which can cause the low-refractive-index coating to soften or even burn out, leading to optical fiber failure. In addition, the optical fiber of this type of structure also has poor bending insensitivity.
[0007] Studies have shown that when the refractive index profile of a multimode fiber is constant, it often exhibits high bandwidth performance only for a specific wavelength window. When the application window of the fiber shifts to a larger or smaller wavelength, the bandwidth performance will significantly decrease. Therefore, from an application perspective, it is necessary to improve the design of multimode fibers to ensure that they are compatible with existing OM3 / OM4 multimode fibers, have low bandwidth-wavelength sensitivity to meet the application requirements of WDM technology within a certain wavelength range, and also possess excellent bending resistance and high optical transmission efficiency to adapt to the new demands of transmission technology advancements on multimode power transmission fibers.
[0008] Therefore, when designing the refractive index profile of high-bandwidth, bend-resistant multimode power transmission fibers, a method is used to add low-refractive-index regions to the fiber cladding to limit the leakage of higher-order modes and minimize signal loss. However, the introduction of a depressed cladding causes changes in the propagation constants of higher-order modes near the core edge, increasing the modal dispersion of the fiber. Furthermore, multimode power transmission fibers inevitably experience varying degrees of bending during use. When the fiber is subjected to significant bending stress for extended periods, its lifespan will inevitably be reduced, and transmission performance will deteriorate. Summary of the Invention

[0049] The fabrication process of the optical fiber of this invention is as follows: A high-purity quartz glass liner is clamped and fixed at both ends by rotating chucks on a plasma chemical vapor deposition (PCVD) lathe with a certain rotation angle. The liner is placed in a holding furnace at a certain temperature (typically 1000℃~1200℃) and passes through a high-frequency microwave resonant cavity. The process reactants required for core rod preparation are introduced into the liner in a gaseous form formed by constant temperature and pressure evaporation from one end of the lathe's rotating chuck. A certain amount of germanium is introduced into the reaction gases silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) and O2. GeCl4, fluorine (C2F6), and phosphorus (POCl3) are doped and deposited in a multi-element doping manner via high-energy plasma excited by a high-frequency microwave resonant cavity, and finally deposited in a glassy state on the inner wall of the liner tube. According to the cross-sectional structure design requirements, the cladding and core layers of the optical fiber are deposited sequentially, and then fused into a solid core rod by a high-temperature (1800℃~2100℃) fusion lathe.

By optimizing the cross-sectional structure design and the amount of multi-element doping, the bandwidth performance of multimode fiber is improved, the differential mode delay (DMD) performance of multimode fiber is enhanced, and the bandwidth-wavelength sensitivity of fiber is reduced, thus optimizing the optical transmission bandwidth performance while improving the fiber's bending insensitivity performance; 2. Through the double inner cladding and double recessed cladding design, the mutual influence between the core layer, the first inner cladding, the first recessed cladding, the second inner cladding, and the second recessed cladding, as well as refractive index distortion caused by diffusion and stress, are avoided; 3. This invention adopts a double inner cladding germanium, fluorine, and phosphorus multi-element doping method, avoiding diffusion between layers caused by differences in dopant element concentrations. The reasonable doping concentration ratio of the inner cladding optimizes the material viscosity matching of the inner cladding and the recessed cladding, improves the smoothness of fiber stress changes, and reduces stress unevenness. The fiber profile distortion caused by this invention is eliminated, thus achieving the integration of high-speed communication and fiber optic power transmission; 4. The fiber of this invention is not only compatible with existing OM3 / OM4 multimode fibers, but also supports wavelength division multiplexing technology in the wavelength range of 850nm to 980nm; 5. The fiber of this invention has high coupling efficiency and transmission efficiency, with a transmission efficiency of over 95%; fiber transmission can achieve laser power transmission in the range of 1W to 400W, and even in the low-power range, it can achieve compatibility with LED light sources; moreover, the fiber has good stability, and under long-term working conditions, the temperature of the fiber optic patch cord connector can be maintained below 45℃, and the transmission efficiency is stable; 6. The manufacturing method of this invention is simple, low-cost, highly feasible and operable, suitable for large-scale production, and applicable to vehicle-mounted optical communication networks, low-power optical energy transmission, and miniaturized optical devices.

[0058] Specific embodiments will be given below to further illustrate the present invention in detail.
[0059] The optical fiber comprises a core and a cladding. The refractive index profile of the core exhibits a parabolic distribution following an α-power exponential function, with a distribution exponent α ranging from 2.3 to 2.7. The core radius R1 ranges from 20 to 32 μm, and the maximum relative refractive index difference Δ at the center of the core is [missing information]. 1max The relative refractive index is 0.8–1.4%, and the relative refractive index difference Δ1 at the core edge R1 is -0.05–0.05%. The cladding layers, from the inside out, are a first inner cladding, a first recessed cladding, a second inner cladding, a second recessed cladding, and an outer cladding. The single-sided width (R2–R1) of the first inner cladding is 0.2–2.0 μm, and the relative refractive index difference Δ2 of the first inner cladding is -0.08–0.02%. The single-sided width (R3–R2) of the first recessed cladding is 2.0–8.0 μm, and the relative refractive index difference Δ3 of the first recessed cladding is... The second inner cladding layer has a single-side width (R4-R3) of 3-10 μm and a relative refractive index difference Δ4 of -0.07-0.07%. The second recessed cladding layer has a single-side width (R5-R4) of 1.0-10 μm and a relative refractive index difference Δ5 of -1.2-0.4%. The outer cladding layer is a pure silica glass layer or a doped silica glass layer, with an outer cladding layer radius R6 of 60-65 μm and a relative refractive index difference Δ6 of -0.13-0.13%.
[0060] The core layer of the optical fiber is a silica glass layer co-doped with germanium and fluorine (Ge / F), or germanium, phosphorus and fluorine (Ge / P / F), or germanium, boron and fluorine (Ge / B / F). Multi-doping can effectively reduce the bandwidth sensitivity to wavelength, enabling the optical fiber to have a high bandwidth over a wide wavelength range, thereby improving high-speed communication performance and transmission efficiency.
[0061] The first inner cladding is a silicon dioxide glass layer co-doped with germanium, phosphorus, and fluorine (Ge / P / F), and the relative refractive index difference Δ2 is less than or equal to the minimum relative refractive index difference Δ1 at the edge of the core layer. The radius of the first inner cladding is R2≥22μm, which effectively suppresses the propagation of higher-order modes in the core layer, improves bandwidth stability, and enhances the transmission performance of optical fiber communication.
[0062] The second inner cladding is a germanium, fluorine, and phosphorus co-doped silica glass layer. Its single-sided thickness (R4-R3) is ≥4.5 μm, the phosphorus doping contribution ΔP is ≤0.10%, and the radius R4 is ≥40 μm. The single-sided thickness (R5-R4) of the second recessed cladding is greater than that of the first recessed cladding (R3-R2). Specifically, the ratio of the single-sided thickness (R5-R4) of the second recessed cladding to that of the first recessed cladding (R3-R2) ranges from 1 to 1.5. This alters modal dispersion while exhibiting superior bending resistance. Compared to germanium, phosphorus has a more significant effect on improving glass viscosity. Doping the second inner cladding with phosphorus can significantly reduce its viscosity, improving its viscosity matching with the recessed cladding. The germanium, fluorine, and phosphorus co-doping design effectively improves fiber attenuation and transmission performance, better preventing light leakage under deep-channel conditions and ensuring stable and efficient power transmission.
[0063] The first and second depressed claddings with negative refractive indices can not only improve the mode dispersion of higher-order modes in the core, but also effectively enhance the fiber's resistance to bending.
[0064] According to the present invention, a set of optical fiber preforms were prepared and drawn, and a double-layer coating of multimode optical fiber was adopted, such as double-layer UV-cured acrylic resin. The structural parameters and performance parameters of the optical fiber are shown in Table 1.

[0066]
[0067]
[0068] Macrobending loss is measured according to the FOTP-62 (IEC-60793-1-47) method. The fiber under test is wound with a certain diameter (e.g., 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 30mm, etc.) once, and then the loop is released. The change in optical power before and after the loop is measured, and this is used as the macrobending loss of the fiber. During the test, an encircled flux injection condition is used. The encircled flux injection condition can be obtained by the following method: a 2-meter-long section of ordinary 50-micron core diameter multimode fiber is fused to the front end of the fiber under test, and a 25mm diameter loop is wound in the middle of this fiber. When full injection light is injected into this fiber, the fiber under test is in the encircled flux injection condition.
[0069] The full injection bandwidth was measured according to the IEC60793-1-41 method, and the test was conducted under full injection conditions.
[0070] Differential mode delay (DMD) was measured according to IEC 60793-1-49. The length of the fiber under test was 1000m ± 20%. A probe single-mode fiber was connected between the fiber under test and the light source to limit the incident light mode to single-mode. The incident light pulse width was less than or equal to 100ps. The light source was incident perpendicularly to the end face of the fiber under test, and the light was scanned radially along the end face. The time difference between the fastest and slowest light pulses reaching the output end of the fiber under test was measured, which is the differential mode delay. At the same time, using these DMD data, calculations were performed to simulate a series of specified input modes to obtain the effective mode bandwidth (EMBc).
[0071] Experiments show that the high-speed communication and power transmission optical fiber manufactured according to the technical solution of this invention, namely, the integrated communication and transmission optical fiber, has good high-speed communication and laser transmission performance in wavelengths of 850nm-980nm and 1060nm. Specifically, the optical fiber has high coupling efficiency and transmission efficiency, with a transmission efficiency of over 95% and a photoelectric conversion efficiency of 20%-30%. The optical fiber can transmit laser power ranging from 1W to 400W, and even achieves compatibility with LED light sources in the low-power range. Furthermore, the optical fiber has good stability; under long-term working conditions, the temperature of the fiber optic patch cord connector can be maintained below 45℃, and the transmission efficiency is stable. The laser parameter settings and transmission test results are shown in Table 2.
