[0056] Some embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and detailedly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments provided by the present disclosure fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0057] In optical communication technology, in order to establish information transmission between information processing devices, it is necessary to load information onto light and utilize the propagation of light to achieve information transmission. Here, the light loaded with information is an optical signal. When the optical signal is transmitted in an information transmission device, the loss of optical power can be reduced, so that high-speed, long-distance, and low-cost information transmission can be achieved. The signals that information processing devices can recognize and process are electrical signals. Information processing devices generally include optical network units (ONUs), gateways, routers, switches, mobile phones, computers, servers, tablet computers, televisions, etc., and information transmission devices generally include optical fibers and optical waveguides, etc.

[0058] An optical module can implement the mutual conversion between optical signals and electrical signals between an information processing device and an information transmission device. For example, at least one of the optical signal input end or the optical signal output end of the optical module is connected to an optical fiber, and at least one of the electrical signal input end or the electrical signal output end of the optical module is connected to an optical network terminal; the first optical signal from the optical fiber is transmitted to the optical module, and the optical module converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal and transmits the first electrical signal to the optical network terminal; the second electrical signal from the optical network terminal is transmitted to the optical module, and the optical module converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber. Since information can be transmitted between multiple information processing devices through electrical signals, at least one of the multiple information processing devices needs to be directly connected to the optical module, rather than all the information processing devices being directly connected to the optical module. Here, the information processing device directly connected to the optical module is called the host computer of the optical module. In addition, the optical signal input end or the optical signal output end of the optical module can be called an optical port, and the electrical signal input end or the electrical signal output end of the optical module can be called an electrical port.

[0059] Figure 1 It is a partial structural diagram of an optical communication system according to some embodiments. As Figure 1 shown, the optical communication system mainly includes a remote information processing device 1000, a local information processing device 2000, a host computer 100, an optical module 200, an optical fiber 101, and a network cable 103.

[0060] One end of the optical fiber 101 extends in the direction of the remote information processing device 1000, and the other end of the optical fiber 101 is connected to the optical module 200 through the optical port of the optical module 200. The optical signal can be totally reflected in the optical fiber 101, and the propagation of the optical signal in the total reflection direction can almost maintain the original optical power. The optical signal undergoes multiple total reflections in the optical fiber 101 to transmit the optical signal from the remote information processing device 1000 to the optical module 200, or to transmit the optical signal from the optical module 200 to the remote information processing device 1000, thereby realizing long-distance and low-power-loss information transmission.

[0061] The optical communication system can include one or more optical fibers 101, and the optical fiber 101 is detachably or fixedly connected to the optical module 200. The host computer 100 is configured to provide a data signal to the optical module 200, or receive a data signal from the optical module 200, or monitor or control the working state of the optical module 200.

[0062] The host computer 100 includes a housing generally in the shape of a cuboid, and an optical module interface 102 provided on the housing. The optical module interface 102 is configured to access the optical module 200 to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the optical module 200.

[0063] The host computer 100 further includes an external power interface, which can access an electrical signal network. For example, the external power interface includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface or a network cable interface 104. The network cable interface 104 is configured to access a network cable 103, so that the host computer 100 establishes a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection with the network cable 103. One end of the network cable 103 is connected to the local information processing device 2000, and the other end of the network cable 103 is connected to the host computer 100, so as to establish an electrical signal connection between the local information processing device 2000 and the host computer 100 through the network cable 103. For example, a third electrical signal sent by the local information processing device 2000 is transmitted into the host computer 100 through the network cable 103. The host computer 100 generates a second electrical signal according to the third electrical signal. The second electrical signal from the host computer 100 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber 101. The second optical signal is transmitted in the optical fiber 101 to the remote information processing device 1000. For example, a first optical signal from the remote information processing device 1000 propagates through the optical fiber 101. The first optical signal from the optical fiber 101 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal. The optical module 200 transmits the first electrical signal to the host computer 100. The host computer 100 generates a fourth electrical signal according to the first electrical signal and transmits the fourth electrical signal into the local information processing device 2000. It should be noted that an optical module is a tool for realizing the mutual conversion between optical signals and electrical signals. During the above conversion process of optical signals and electrical signals, the information does not change, but the encoding and decoding methods of the information may change.

[0064] In addition to including an optical network terminal, the host computer 100 further includes an Optical Line Terminal (OLT), an Optical Network Terminal (ONT), or a data center server, etc.

[0065] Figure 2 It is a partial structural diagram of a host computer according to some embodiments. To clearly show the connection relationship between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100, Figure 2 only the structure of the host computer 100 related to the optical module 200 is shown. As Figure 2 shown, the host computer 100 further includes a PCB circuit board 105 disposed in the housing, a cage 106 disposed on the surface of the PCB circuit board 105, a radiator 107 disposed on the cage 106, and an electrical connector disposed inside the cage 106. The electrical connector is configured to access the electrical port of the optical module 200; the radiator 107 has raised structures such as fins for increasing the heat dissipation area.

[0066] The optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 of the host computer 100. The cage 106 fixes the optical module 200, and the heat generated by the optical module 200 is conducted to the cage 106 and then diffused through the radiator 107. After the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the electrical port of the optical module 200 is connected to the electrical connector inside the cage 106, thereby establishing a two-way electrical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100. In addition, the optical port of the optical module 200 is connected to the optical fiber 101, thereby establishing a two-way optical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the optical fiber 101.

[0067] Figure 3 It is a structural diagram of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 4 It is an exploded schematic view of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the optical module 200 includes a shell, a circuit board 300, an optical transmitting component 400, and an optical accommodating component 500 disposed inside the shell. At least one optical receiving component is disposed on the optical accommodating component 500. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the optical module 200 includes one of the optical transmitting component 400 and the optical accommodating component 500.

[0068] The shell includes an upper shell 201 and a lower shell 202. The upper shell 201 covers the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell with two openings; the outer contour of the shell generally presents a rectangular body.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the lower shell 202 includes a bottom plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the bottom plate 2021 and perpendicular to the bottom plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011, and the cover plate 2011 covers the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell.

[0070] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a bottom plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the bottom plate 2021 and perpendicular to the bottom plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011 and two upper side plates located on both sides of the cover plate 2011 and perpendicular to the cover plate 2011. The two upper side plates are combined with the two lower side plates 2022 to realize the upper shell 201 covering the lower shell 202.

[0071] The direction where the line connecting the two openings 203 and 204 is located may be consistent with the length direction of the optical module 200 or may not be consistent with the length direction of the optical module 200. For example, the opening 203 is located at the end of the optical module 200 ( Figure 3 the right end), and the opening 204 is also located at the end of the optical module 200 ( Figure 3The left end). Alternatively, the opening 203 is located at the end of the optical module 200, and the opening 204 is located on the side of the optical module 200. The opening 203 is an electrical port, and the gold fingers of the circuit board 300 extend from the electrical port and are inserted into the host computer (for example, the optical network terminal 100); the opening 204 is an optical port and is configured to access the optical fiber 101 so that the optical fiber 101 connects the optical transmitting component 400 and / or the optical receiving component 500 in the optical module 200.

[0072] Adopting the assembly method of combining the upper housing 201 and the lower housing 202 facilitates the installation of components such as the circuit board 300, the optical transmitting component 400, and the optical receiving component 500 into the housing, and the upper housing 201 and the lower housing 202 form a package protection for these devices. In addition, when assembling components such as the circuit board 300, the optical transmitting component 400, and the optical receiving component 500, it is convenient for the deployment of the positioning components, heat dissipation components, and electromagnetic shielding components of these devices, which is conducive to the automated implementation of production.

[0073] In some embodiments, the upper housing 201 and the lower housing 202 are generally made of metal materials, which is conducive to achieving electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation.

[0074] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 further includes an unlocking component 600 located outside its housing. The unlocking component 600 is configured to achieve a fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer, or to release the fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer.

[0075] Exemplarily, the unlocking component 600 is located outside the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower housing 202 and includes a engaging component that matches the cage 106 of the host computer 100. When the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the engaging component of the unlocking component 600 fixes the optical module 200 in the cage 106; when the unlocking component 600 is pulled, the engaging component of the unlocking component 600 moves accordingly, thereby changing the connection relationship between the engaging component and the host computer to release the fixation of the optical module 200 and the host computer, so that the optical module 200 can be withdrawn from the cage 106.

[0076] The circuit board 300 includes circuit traces, electronic components, and chips. The electronic components and chips are connected together according to the circuit design through the circuit traces to achieve functions such as power supply, electrical signal transmission, and grounding. The electronic components include, for example, capacitors, resistors, triodes, and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). The chips include, for example, microcontroller units (MCUs), laser driver chips, limiting amplifiers (LAs), clock and data recovery (CDR) chips, power management chips, and digital signal processing (DSP) chips.

[0077] The circuit board 300 is generally a rigid circuit board. Due to its relatively hard material, the rigid circuit board can also achieve a bearing function. For example, the rigid circuit board can stably bear the above-mentioned electronic components and chips; the rigid circuit board can also be inserted into the electrical connector in the upper computer cage.

[0078] The circuit board 300 further includes a gold finger 310 formed on its end surface. The gold finger 310 is composed of a plurality of independent pins. The circuit board 300 is inserted into the cage 106, and the gold finger 310 is conductively connected to the electrical connector in the cage 106. The gold finger 310 can be provided only on the surface of one side of the circuit board 300 (for example Figure 4 the upper surface shown), or can be provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the circuit board 300 to adapt to occasions with a large demand for the number of pins. The gold finger 310 is configured to establish an electrical connection with the upper computer to achieve functions such as power supply, grounding, I2C signal transmission, and data signal transmission. Of course, flexible circuit boards are also used in some optical modules. Flexible circuit boards are generally used in cooperation with rigid circuit boards as a supplement to rigid circuit boards.

[0079] In some embodiments, the optical emission component 400 and the optical accommodation component 500 are physically separated from the circuit board 300 respectively, and then electrically connected to the circuit board 300 through corresponding flexible circuit boards or electrical connectors respectively.

[0080] Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the internal structure of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure Figure 1 , Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the internal structure of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure Figure 2 . As Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, one end of the optical housing component 500 is connected to the fiber optic adapter 700, and the other end of the optical housing component 500 is connected to the optical transmitting component 400. The optical signal generated by the optical transmitting component 400 is first transmitted into the optical housing component 500, then transmitted through the optical housing component 500 to the fiber optic adapter 700, and finally output through the fiber optic adapter 700; the externally input optical signal is input into the optical housing component 500 through the fiber optic adapter 700, so that the optical housing component 500 and the optical transmitting component 400 share the fiber optic adapter 700, and further the upstream optical signal and the downstream optical signal of the optical module share the optical fiber 101.

[0081] In some embodiments, the optical transmitting component 400 generates optical emission signals of multiple wavelengths and can combine the optical emission signals of multiple wavelengths into one optical emission signal; multiple optical receiving components are arranged on the optical housing component 500, so that the optical housing component 500 can receive optical receiving signals including multiple wavelengths. Exemplarily, the optical transmitting component 400 generates optical emission signals of three wavelengths, and the rates of the optical emission signals of the three wavelengths are different, such as the first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal and the third wavelength optical signal with different rates; the optical housing component 500 receives optical receiving signals of three wavelengths, and the rates of the optical receiving signals of the three wavelengths are different, such as the fourth wavelength optical signal, the fifth wavelength optical signal and the sixth wavelength optical signal with different rates.

[0082] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal is 1340 - 1344 nm, such as the wavelength of the first wavelength optical signal is 1342 nm; the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal is 1575 - 1580 nm, such as the wavelength of the second wavelength optical signal is 1577 nm; the wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal is 1480 - 1500 nm, such as the wavelength of the third wavelength optical signal is 1490 nm; the wavelength range of the fourth wavelength optical signal is 1260 - 1280 nm, such as the wavelength of the fourth wavelength optical signal is 1270 nm; the wavelength range of the fifth wavelength optical signal is 1284 - 1288 nm, such as the wavelength of the fifth wavelength optical signal is 1286 nm; the wavelength range of the sixth wavelength optical signal is 1290 - 1330 nm, such as the wavelength of the sixth wavelength optical signal is 1310 nm.

[0083] In some embodiments, the receiving rates of the photodetectors in the first optical receiving component 530, the second optical receiving component 540, and the third optical receiving component 550 are different. Exemplarily, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second optical receiving component 540 is greater than that of the photodetector in the first optical receiving component 530, and the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second optical receiving component 540 is greater than that of the photodetector in the third optical receiving component 550, such that the optical transmission path of the fifth wavelength optical signal with the maximum transmission rate from the output of the wavelength division multiplexer 564 to the photodetector is relatively the shortest and the optical path is the simplest, so as to facilitate the photodetector in the second optical receiving component 540 to receive the optical signal with a high coupling efficiency. For example, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the first optical receiving component 530 is 10G, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second optical receiving component 540 is 50G, and the receiving rate of the photodetector in the third optical receiving component 550 is 2.5G.

[0084] In some embodiments, the optical housing component 500 includes a first housing 510 and a first upper cover 520, and a first cavity is formed by the covering connection of the first housing 510 and the first upper cover 520. The first optical receiving component 530, the second optical receiving component 540, and the third optical receiving component 550 are disposed on the side wall of the first housing 510. An accommodation cavity is formed inside the first cavity, and this accommodation cavity is used to accommodate devices and to achieve the connection or communication between the devices.

Exemplarily, the MCU 350 enables control to turn off the third driving chip 320, or controls the power supply chip to stop supplying power to the third driving chip 320.

[0149] In some embodiments, if the MCU 350 detects that the intensity value of the fifth-wavelength optical signal is less than the preset signal intensity value, it is considered that the second optical receiving component 540 does not receive the fifth-wavelength optical signal; or, if the first SD value is the second identification value, such as 0, it is considered that the second optical receiving component 540 does not receive the fifth-wavelength optical signal. Correspondingly, the MCU 350 can use the same or similar technical means to confirm whether the first optical receiving component 530 receives the fourth-wavelength optical signal and whether the third optical receiving component 550 receives the sixth-wavelength optical signal.

[0150] In some embodiments, the MCU 350 usually detects the intensity value or SD value of the received signal multiple times within a certain period of time to determine whether the corresponding optical receiving component receives the corresponding optical signal. Exemplarily, within 10 software loop cycles, it is determined whether the intensity value of the received signal detected in each software loop cycle is less than the preset signal intensity value. When the intensity values of the received signals detected within 10 software loop cycles are all less than the preset signal intensity value, it is considered that the corresponding optical receiving component does not receive the corresponding optical signal.

[0151] In some embodiments, if the MCU 350 determines that the intensity value of the fifth-wavelength optical signal is greater than or equal to the first preset signal intensity value, it writes the first preset value into the first register; if the MCU 350 determines that the intensity value of the fifth-wavelength optical signal is less than the first preset signal intensity value, it writes the second preset value into the first register; the first preset value and the second preset value in the first register are used to identify whether the second optical receiving component 540 receives the fifth-wavelength optical signal. The first register can be located inside the MCU 350. Exemplarily, the first preset value is 1 and the second preset value is 0. If the MCU 350 reads the second preset value in the first register, the MCU 350 controls the first driving chip 320 to turn off.

[0152] In some embodiments, if the MCU350 determines that the first SD value is the first identification value, it writes a first preset value into the first register; if the MCU350 determines that the first SD value is the second identification value, it writes a second preset value into the first register; wherein, the first preset value and the second preset value are used to identify whether the second optical receiving component 540 receives the fifth-wavelength optical signal. In some embodiments, if the MCU350 determines that the intensity value of the fourth-wavelength optical signal is greater than or equal to the second preset signal intensity value, it writes a third preset value into the second register; if the MCU350 determines that the intensity value of the fourth-wavelength optical signal is less than the second preset intensity value, it writes a fourth preset value into the second register; the third preset value and the fourth preset value in the second register are used to identify whether the first optical receiving component 530 receives the fourth-wavelength optical signal. The second register may be located within the MCU350. Exemplarily, the third preset value is 1 and the fourth preset value is 0. If the MCU350 reads the second preset value in the second register, the MCU350 controls the second driver chip 330 to turn off.

[0153] In some embodiments, if the MCU350 determines that the second SD value is the first identification value, it writes a first preset value into the second register; if the MCU350 determines that the second SD value is the second identification value, it writes a second preset value into the second register; wherein, the first preset value and the second preset value in the second register are used to identify whether the first optical receiving component 530 receives the fourth-wavelength optical signal.

[0154] In some embodiments, if the MCU350 determines that the intensity value of the sixth-wavelength optical signal is greater than or equal to the third preset intensity value, it writes a fifth preset value into the third register; if the MCU350 determines that the intensity value of the sixth-wavelength optical signal is less than the third preset intensity value, it writes a sixth preset value into the third register; the fifth preset value and the sixth preset value in the third register are used to identify whether the third optical receiving component 550 receives the sixth-wavelength optical signal. The third register may be located within the MCU350. Exemplarily, the fifth preset value is 1 and the sixth preset value is 0. If the MCU350 reads the second preset value in the third register, the MCU350 controls the third driver chip 340 to turn off.

[0155] In some embodiments, if the MCU350 determines that the third SD value is the first identification value, it writes a first preset value into the third register; if the MCU350 determines that the third SD value is the second identification value, it writes a second preset value into the third register; wherein, the first preset value and the second preset value are used to identify whether the third optical receiving component 550 receives the sixth-wavelength optical signal.

[0156] In some embodiments, within a preset time, the intensity value of the fifth-wavelength optical signal is determined multiple times to be greater than or equal to the first preset signal intensity value. For each determination result, a corresponding preset value is written into the first register, and the preset values in the first register are counted. When the preset values in the first register are all the second preset value within the preset time, the MCU 350 controls the first driving chip 320 to turn off. Exemplarily, within 10 software loop cycles, the 10 preset values in the first register are all the second preset value. Correspondingly, the MCU 350 can use the same or similar means to determine whether the first optical receiving component 530 receives the fourth-wavelength optical signal and whether the third optical receiving component 550 receives the sixth-wavelength optical signal.

[0157] In some embodiments, the MCU 350 can adaptively determine whether the corresponding optical receiving component receives the corresponding wavelength optical signal. When it is detected that the corresponding wavelength optical signal is not received, the corresponding driving chip is controlled to turn off; alternatively, the host computer interacts with the MCU 350 to confirm whether the corresponding optical receiving component in the optical module 200 receives the corresponding wavelength optical signal. When it is determined that the corresponding wavelength optical signal is not received, the host computer issues a corresponding control instruction, and the MCU 350 controls the corresponding driving chip to turn off according to the received instruction.

[0158] In some embodiments, when the MCU 350 confirms that the second optical receiving component 540 receives the fifth-wavelength optical signal, the first target physical distance is obtained, and the target parameters for the first driving chip 320 to drive the first laser component 440 are determined based on the first look-up table, so as to control the first driving chip 320 to drive the first laser component 440 according to the target parameters. The first target physical distance is the distance between the optical module 200 and the first optical module, and the first optical module is the optical module on the opposite-end device of the optical module 200. The first optical module emits the fifth-wavelength optical signal and receives the first-wavelength optical signal. Exemplarily, the first optical module can be multiple optical modules. When the first optical module is multiple optical modules, the first target physical distance is the maximum distance between the multiple optical modules and the optical module 200. The target parameters include bias current, drive current, optical amplifier controller drive current, etc.; the first look-up table includes multiple physical distances and the corresponding first target output optical power, bias current, modulation current, optical amplifier controller drive current and other target parameters. Exemplarily, if the transmission requirement of the optical module 200 is 20 Km, the physical distances in the first look-up table can be selected as the DAC values corresponding to 1 Km, 2 Km, 3 Km, 4 Km... 20 Km, etc., and the target parameters corresponding to the physical distances in the first look-up table are the DAC values corresponding to the first target output optical power, bias current, modulation current, optical amplifier controller drive current, etc.

[0159] When the second optical receiving component 540 receives the fifth-wavelength optical signal, the host computer can measure the physical distance between the optical module 200 and the first optical module through ranging technology, and the MCU 350 interacts with the host computer to obtain the first target physical distance.

[0160] In some embodiments, the MCU 350 obtains the first target physical distance every first preset time to determine whether the obtained first target physical distance has changed; when the first target physical distance changes, the first target output optical power and corresponding target parameters are re-determined according to the changed first target physical distance, so as to control the first driving chip 320 to drive the first laser component 440 according to the re-determined target parameters.

[0161] In some embodiments, when the MCU 350 confirms that the first optical receiving component 530 receives the fourth-wavelength optical signal, the second target physical distance is obtained, and the target parameters for the second driving chip 330 to drive the second laser component 450 are determined based on the second look-up table, so as to control the second driving chip 330 to drive the second laser component 450 according to the target parameters. The second target physical distance is the distance between the optical module 200 and the second optical module, and the second optical module is the optical module on the opposite-end device of the optical module 200, and the second optical module emits the fourth-wavelength optical signal and receives the second-wavelength optical signal. The target parameters include bias current, driving current, optical amplifier controller driving current, etc.; the second look-up table includes multiple physical distances and target parameters such as bias current, modulation current, optical amplifier controller driving current, etc. corresponding to the physical distances.

[0162] In some embodiments, when the MCU 350 confirms that the third optical receiving component 550 receives the sixth-wavelength optical signal, the third target physical distance is obtained, and the target parameters for the third driving chip 340 to drive the third laser component 460 are determined based on the third look-up table, so as to control the third driving chip 340 to drive the third laser component 460 according to the target parameters. The third target physical distance is the distance between the optical module 200 and the third optical module, and the third optical module is the optical module on the opposite-end device of the optical module 200, and the third optical module emits the sixth-wavelength optical signal and receives the third-wavelength optical signal. The target parameters include bias current, driving current, etc.; the second look-up table includes multiple physical distances and target parameters such as bias current, modulation current, etc. corresponding to the physical distances.

[0163] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the parameters of the driving chip for driving the laser component are adjusted in combination with the actual transmission requirements of the optical module 200 to reduce the output optical power of the laser component. Under the condition that the actual transmission requirements can be met, the energy consumption of the laser component is reduced, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the optical module 200.

[0164] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present disclosure, rather than to limit them; although the present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present disclosure.
