[0074] Example 1

[0075] In order to enable fiber optic systems to meet the needs of hybrid functions and complex and diverse interfaces, Embodiment 1 of this utility model provides a digital-analog hybrid fiber optic system. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system includes a signal transmitting device 11 and a signal receiving device 12; the signal transmitting device 11 and the signal receiving device 12 are connected through at least one single-mode optical fiber.

[0076] The single-mode fiber can be at least one of the following: MPO (Multi-fiber Push On) single-mode fiber, FC / APC (Ferrule Connector / Angled Physical Contact) single-mode fiber, or SC / APC (Subscriber Connector / Angled Physical Contact) single-mode fiber. The specific choice of single-mode fiber can be determined according to the actual situation.

[0077] The signal transmitting device 11 is used to receive radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals and general data electrical signals, and convert the radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals and general data electrical signals into radio frequency optical signals, video optical signals and general data optical signals.

[0078] The radio frequency (RF) signal can be an analog RF signal of 0–6.0 GHz (GHz) or 67 GHz (GHz). The video signal can be an HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) signal or a DP (DisplayPort) signal of 18–20 Gbps (gigabits per second). The video signal can be an uncompressed, latency-free 4K@60Hz resolution 4:4:4 video signal.

[0079] The signal transmitting device 11 is also used to mix at least two optical signals from the radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal, and general data optical signal to obtain a first mixed optical signal, and transmit the optical signal to the signal receiving device 12 through the corresponding single-mode optical fiber. The digital signal can be a medium-speed (less than 40 Mbps, megabits per second) Ethernet signal and various low-speed serial signals, such as RS232 interface signals, RS485 interface signals, and USB interface signals.

[0080] The signal receiving device 12 is used to convert the received optical signal into radio frequency electrical signal, video electrical signal and general data electrical signal and then transmit it to the outside.

[0081] It should be noted that the signal receiving device 12 may include a signal classification and preprocessing unit, which can automatically identify the signal type and classify and preprocess the signal according to the signal type. This preprocessing includes: ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) sampling, digital encoding, or protocol encapsulation of the signal. The method for automatically identifying the signal type using the signal classification and preprocessing unit is existing technology and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0082] In this embodiment, the signal transmitting device 11 in the digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system can mix and process at least two of the following optical signals: radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal, and general data optical signal, and then send them to the signal receiving device 12. The signal receiving device 12 then converts the received optical signals into radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals, and general data electrical signals before transmitting them to the outside. In this way, the digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system can meet the transmission requirements of radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals, and general data electrical signals, thereby meeting the needs of scenarios with mixed functions and complex and diverse interfaces. Furthermore, the transmission of video electrical signals and general data electrical signals can achieve long-distance transmission (e.g., transmission over a kilometer) and support a transmission bandwidth of up to 18 Gbps (gigabits per second). The digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system also supports end-to-end diagnostics, thereby reducing installation and maintenance time.

[0083] In one embodiment, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system using a single-mode optical fiber for transmission, provided in Embodiment 1 of this utility model. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the use of two single-mode optical fibers for transmission in a digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system according to Embodiment 1 of this utility model; it should be noted that... Figure 2 and Figure 3The arrows in the diagram are for illustrative purposes only; their actual direction can be adjusted as needed. The signal transmitting device 11 includes a first controller 21, a first photoelectric conversion device 26, and a first optical signal processing device 35.

[0084] The first photoelectric conversion device 26 can be a tunable laser to achieve wavelength division multiplexing. It can carry a bandwidth of 40 Gbps (gigabits per second). The first photoelectric conversion device 26 may include an optical modulator 22.

[0085] The first controller 21 is electrically connected to the first photoelectric conversion device 26 and the first optical signal processing device 35 respectively; the output end of the first photoelectric conversion device 26 is electrically connected to the input end of the first optical signal processing device 35; the output end of the first optical signal processing device 35 is connected to the signal receiving device 12 through at least one single-mode optical fiber.

[0086] The input terminal of the first photoelectric conversion device 26 is used to receive externally input radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals, and general data electrical signals; the first controller 21 is also used to control the first photoelectric conversion device 26 to convert the radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals, and general data electrical signals into radio frequency optical signals, video optical signals, and general data optical signals, and then send them to the first optical signal processing device 35; the controller is also used to control the first optical signal processing device 35 to mix at least two of the radio frequency optical signals, video optical signals, and general data optical signals to obtain a first mixed optical signal, and send the optical signal to the signal receiving device 12 through the corresponding single-mode optical fiber.

[0087] In this embodiment, the first photoelectric conversion device 26 and the first optical signal processing device 35 can more efficiently convert the received radio frequency electrical signals, video electrical signals and general data electrical signals into radio frequency optical signals, video optical signals and general data optical signals.

[0088] In one embodiment, the signal transmitting device 11 and the signal receiving device 12 are connected via a single-mode optical fiber 27.

[0089] The first controller 21 is also used to control the first optical signal processing device 35 to mix the radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal and general data optical signal to obtain a first mixed optical signal, and send the first mixed optical signal to the signal receiving device 12 through a single-mode optical fiber.

[0090] It should be noted that the first controller 21 performs the corresponding operation through control signals input from external devices.

[0091] Preferably, the first mixed optical signal can be obtained by mixing the radio frequency optical signal, the video optical signal and the general data optical signal according to their wavelengths.

[0092] In this embodiment, radio frequency optical signals, video optical signals and general data optical signals are mixed into a first mixed optical signal, which enables the optical signal to be transmitted more efficiently.

[0093] In one embodiment, the signal transmitting device 11 and the signal receiving device 12 are connected via two single-mode optical fibers.

[0094] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system using two single-mode optical fibers for transmission, provided in Embodiment 1 of this utility model.

[0095] The first controller 21 is also used to control the first optical signal processing device 35 to mix the video optical signal and the general data optical signal to obtain a first mixed optical signal, and to send the first mixed optical signal and the radio frequency optical signal to the signal receiving device 12 through one of the single-mode optical fibers respectively.

[0096] like Figure 3 As shown, the first hybrid optical signal can be transmitted through the MPO single-mode fiber 42, and the radio frequency optical signal can be transmitted through the FC / APC single-mode fiber 41.

[0097] It should be noted that, Figure 3 The FC / APC single-mode fiber 41 in the middle can be replaced with SC / APC single-mode fiber to transmit radio frequency optical signals.

[0098] In this embodiment, the video optical signal and the general data optical signal are mixed into a first mixed optical signal, and the radio frequency optical signal and the first mixed optical signal are transmitted to the signal receiving device 12 through a more suitable single-mode optical fiber, which enables the optical signal to be transmitted more efficiently.

[0099] In one embodiment, the signal receiving device 12 includes a second controller 33, a second photoelectric conversion device 34, and a second optical signal processing device 28;

[0100] The second optical signal processing device 28 can also be a tunable laser to achieve wave demultiplexing. It can carry a bandwidth of 40 Gbps (gigabits per second). The second photoelectric conversion device 34 may include an optical demodulator 29.

[0101] The second controller 33 is electrically connected to the second photoelectric conversion device 34 and the second optical signal processing device 28 respectively; the input end of the second optical signal processing device 28 is connected to the signal transmitting device 11 through at least one single-mode optical fiber; the output end of the second optical signal processing device 28 is electrically connected to the input end of the second photoelectric conversion device 34.

[0102] The second controller 33 is also used to control the second optical signal processing device 28 to convert the received optical signal into radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal and general data optical signal and then send it to the second photoelectric conversion device 34; the second controller 33 is also used to control the second photoelectric conversion device 34 to convert the radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal and general data optical signal into radio frequency electrical signal, video electrical signal and general data electrical signal and then send it to the outside.

[0103] In this embodiment, the second optical signal processing device 28 and the second photoelectric conversion device 34 can more efficiently convert the received optical signal into radio frequency electrical signal, video electrical signal and general data electrical signal.

[0104] In one embodiment, the signal transmitting device 11 includes a first controller 21 and a multiplexer; the first controller 21 is electrically connected to the multiplexer.

[0105] In response to a first bandwidth of the video electrical signal and the general data electrical signal being greater than or equal to a first bandwidth threshold, the controller controls the multiplexing selector to select spatial multiplexing technology to process the video electrical signal and the general data electrical signal to obtain the video optical signal and the general data optical signal.

[0106] The first bandwidth threshold can be set according to the actual situation.

[0107] For example, when the first bandwidth of the video signal and the general data signal is greater than or equal to 40 Gbps (gigabits per second), the controller controls the multiplexing selector to select spatial multiplexing technology to process the video signal and the general data signal.

[0108] In response to the speed of the video electrical signal and the general data electrical signal being less than or equal to a speed threshold, the first controller 21 controls the multiplexing selector to select time-division multiplexing technology to process the video electrical signal and the general data electrical signal to obtain the video optical signal and the general data optical signal.

[0109] Furthermore, video electrical signals and general data electrical signals can be further processed into corresponding digital optical signals and analog optical signals in the aforementioned signal classification and preprocessing device. The controller then controls the multiplexing selector to select digital time-division multiplexing technology for the digital optical signal. This digital time-division multiplexing technology is... Figure 2 The digital time-division multiplexing unit 23 in the middle performs the operation. Frequency division multiplexing (FDM) is selected for the analog optical signal; this FDM is performed by... Figure 2 The analog optical signal in the process is selected by the analog frequency division multiplexing unit 24 for execution.

[0110] For example, for low-to-medium speed (less than 40 Mbps, megabits per second) video electrical signals and general data electrical signals, the first controller 21 controls the multiplexing selector to select time-division multiplexing technology to process the video electrical signals and general data electrical signals. This time-division multiplexing technology can be based on flexible Ethernet to dynamically allocate time slots for video electrical signals and general data electrical signals to achieve time-division multiplexing.

[0111] In response to a second bandwidth of the radio frequency electrical signal being greater than or equal to a second bandwidth threshold, the controller controls the multiplexing selector to select either subcarrier multiplexing or orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology to process the radio frequency electrical signal to obtain a radio frequency optical signal. The first bandwidth threshold is greater than the second bandwidth threshold.

[0112] The second bandwidth threshold can be set according to the actual situation.

[0113] For example, when the second bandwidth of the radio frequency (RF) signal is greater than or equal to 2 Gbps (gigabits per second), the controller controls the multiplexing selector to select either spatial multiplexing (SDM) or orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology to process the RF signal. This SDM technology supports multiple modulation schemes such as QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying), 16QAM (16 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation), and 64QAM (64 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation).

[0114] Extensive experiments have shown that this method of automatically selecting the corresponding multiplexing technology based on the signal type can complete the rapid switching of the digital layer within 50ms and achieve optical layer reconstruction within 2 seconds, ensuring that the system always works in the optimal state.

[0115] In this embodiment, the controller controls the multiplexing selector to select the multiplexing technology corresponding to the signal, which can support intelligent multiplexing of multiple input signals and improve the multiplexing efficiency of various types of signals.

[0116] In one embodiment, the signal receiving device 12 includes a second controller 33 and a demultiplexing selector; the second controller 33 is electrically connected to the demultiplexing selector.

[0117] The second controller 33 is used to control the demultiplexing selector to select the corresponding demultiplexing technology for processing based on the received radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal and general data optical signal after multiplexing technology processing, so as to obtain radio frequency electrical signal, video electrical signal and general data electrical signal.

[0118] For example: the demultiplexing technology corresponding to digital time-division multiplexing technology is composed of... Figure 2 The digital time-division multiplexing unit 30 in the middle performs the operation; the demultiplexing technology corresponding to the analog optical signal selective frequency division multiplexing technology is performed by... Figure 2 The analog frequency decomposition and multiplexing unit 31 in the middle is executed;

[0119] Furthermore, the decision parameters for the multiplexing selector and demultiplexing selector can also be at least one of the following: current traffic load, signal delay sensitivity, signal bandwidth requirements, single-mode fiber resource utilization, signal QoS (Quality of Service) level, and signal transmission speed.

[0120] In this embodiment, the second controller 33 is used to control the demultiplexing selector to select the corresponding demultiplexing technology for processing according to the received radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal and general data optical signal after multiplexing technology processing, so as to more efficiently and accurately convert the radio frequency optical signal, video optical signal and general data optical signal into radio frequency electrical signal, video electrical signal and general data electrical signal.

[0121] In one embodiment, the signal transmitting device 11 includes a first controller 21 and a first low-noise amplifier 36;

[0122] The first low-noise amplifier 36 is electrically connected to the first controller 21; the first controller 21 is also used to control the opening and closing of the first low-noise amplifier 36 in order to control the noise of the radio frequency electrical signal in the signal transmitting device 11.

[0123] And / or,

[0124] The signal receiving device 12 includes a second controller 33 and a second low-noise amplifier. The second low-noise amplifier is electrically connected to the first controller 21.

[0125] The second controller 33 is also used to control the opening and closing of the second low-noise amplifier in order to control the noise of the radio frequency electrical signal in the signal receiving device 12.

[0126] A first low-noise amplifier 36 is provided in the signal transmitting device 11, and a second low-noise amplifier (LNA) is provided in the signal receiving device 12. The settings of the low-noise amplifiers allow users to adjust the noise figure, input P1dB (compression point), and IP3 (third-order intercept point) while having a wide dynamic range.

[0127] It's important to note that P1dB (compression point) is a performance parameter for input power. A higher compression point means higher input power. P1dB refers to the input power point where the gain decreases by 1dB compared to very low power levels. IP3 (third-order cutoff point) is a parameter representing the linearity or distortion performance of the input signal. A higher IP3 indicates better linearity and less distortion in the input signal.

[0128] Taking the first low-noise amplifier 36 as an example:

[0129] The first low-noise amplifier 36 can be controlled by the first controller 21. For broadband applications, the frequency range of the signal transmitting device 11 can be extended from 0.5 to 6000 MHz to 67 GHz; the input-output VSWR is 1.7:1, and the input-output impedance is 50 Ohms. By controlling the opening and closing of the first low-noise amplifier, the noise of the radio frequency signal can be adjusted. For example, the noise level is 27 dB when the first low-noise amplifier 36 is "on" and 6 dB when the first low-noise amplifier 36 is "off".

[0130] Furthermore, the first low-noise amplifier 36 can also adjust the gain, gain amplitude, and input P1dB (compression point) of the RF signal link. For example:

[0131] The gain of the RF signal link is 37dB when the first low-noise amplifier 36 is "on" and 7dB when the first low-noise amplifier 36 is "off".

[0132] The gain amplitude of the first low-noise amplifier 36 is ±2.0dB when it is "on" or "off"; furthermore, the first low-noise amplifier 36 can ensure that the gain amplitude of the radio frequency signal link is not greater than 0.5dB when the internal temperature of the signal transmitting device 11 exceeds 100°C.

[0133] Input 1dB compression point: When the first low noise amplifier 36 is "on", the input P1dB (compression point) is -33dBm (milliwatts decibels), and when the first low noise amplifier 36 is "off", the input P1dB (compression point) is -3dBm.

[0134] In this embodiment, by providing a first low-noise amplifier 36 in the signal transmitting device 11 and / or a second low-noise amplifier in the signal receiving device 12, the purity of the radio frequency electrical signal can be enhanced, preventing noise from affecting the efficiency of signal transmission. Furthermore, the overall noise figure of the system can be reduced, and the quality of the radio frequency electrical signal can be improved.

[0135] In one embodiment, the signal transmitting device 11 includes a first controller 21 and a first temperature sensor 25; the first temperature sensor 25 is electrically connected to the first controller 21; the first temperature sensor 25 is used to acquire a first temperature within the signal transmitting device 11; the first controller 21 is also used to control the first temperature sensor 25 to send the first temperature to the first controller 21.

[0136] In this embodiment, a first temperature sensor 25 is provided in the signal transmitting device 11. The first controller 21 can monitor the temperature inside the signal transmitting device 11 in real time by detecting the first temperature by the first temperature sensor 25, so as to prevent the excessive temperature from affecting the signal processing and transmission efficiency in the signal transmitting device 11.

[0137] In one embodiment, the signal receiving device 12 includes a second controller 33 and a second temperature sensor 32; the second temperature sensor 32 is electrically connected to the second controller 33. The second temperature sensor 32 is used to acquire a second temperature within the signal receiving device 12; the second controller 33 is also used to control the second temperature sensor 32 to send the second temperature to the second controller 33.

[0138] Preferably, the signal transmitting device 11 and the signal receiving device 12 are preferably in operation at a temperature of -20 to +70°C and in storage at a temperature of -40 to +85°C, in order to comply with safety regulations.

[0139] In this embodiment, a second temperature sensor 32 is provided in the signal receiving device 12. The second controller 33 can monitor the temperature inside the signal receiving device 12 in real time by detecting the second temperature through the second temperature sensor 32, so as to prevent the excessive temperature from affecting the signal processing and transmission efficiency in the signal receiving device 12.

[0140] In one embodiment, a light sensor can be provided in both the signal receiving device 12 and the signal transmitting device 11. Taking the signal receiving device 12 as an example, the light sensor is electrically connected to the second controller 33 so that the second controller 33 can monitor the quality and transmission efficiency of the light signal in real time through the data detected by the light sensor.

[0141] In one embodiment, the digital-analog hybrid fiber optic system further includes a GUI (Graphical User Interface) for issuing control commands to the first controller 21 and the second controller 33 to control the operation of other components in the digital-analog hybrid fiber optic system.

[0142] In one embodiment, the digital-analog hybrid fiber optic system also includes a path gain calculator, which may be located after the first low-noise amplifier and / or the second low-noise amplifier and electrically connected to the first controller 21 and / or the second controller, to help the user calculate the RF link gain and optical prediction parameters in the signal transmitting device 11 and / or the signal receiving device 12.

[0143] In one embodiment, the first controller 21 and / or the second controller 33 can both be connected to a radio frequency detector 37, and the radio frequency detector 37 can be set on the transmission link of the radio frequency electrical signal to monitor the transmission quality of the radio frequency electrical signal in real time.

[0144] In one embodiment, the signal transmitting device includes a first analog channel and a first digital channel; the signal receiving device includes a second analog channel and a second digital channel; the first analog channel and the second analog channel are used to transmit radio frequency electrical signals; the first digital channel and the second digital channel are used to transmit video electrical signals and general data electrical signals.

[0145] The signal transmitting device transmits the radio frequency test electrical signal to the second analog channel through the first analog channel.

[0146] It should be noted that the radio frequency test signal has a specific type, such as a single-tone signal or a swept-frequency signal, so that the receiving end can accurately identify the signal.

[0147] The signal transmitting device transmits the initial signal parameters of the radio frequency test electrical signal to the second digital channel through the first digital channel.

[0148] The initial signal parameters include at least one of the frequency, power, or modulation format of the radio frequency test signal.

[0149] The signal receiving device is also used to acquire the actual signal parameters of the radio frequency test electrical signal in the second analog channel and the initial signal parameters in the second digital channel, and to evaluate the transmission quality of the radio frequency test electrical signal based on the actual signal parameters and the initial signal parameters.

[0150] Specifically, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), error vector amplitude (EVM), and average power value of the RF test signal during transmission can be obtained based on the initial signal parameters and the actual signal parameters. The transmission quality of the RF test signal can then be evaluated based on these parameters. Preferably, the actual signal parameters can be obtained at the frequency or under the conditions corresponding to the transmission of the RF test signal.

[0151] Taking the evaluation of the transmission quality of the RF test signal by the error vector amplitude (EVM) as an example.

[0152] Assuming the RF test signal is an ideal 16QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) signal with an ideal error vector amplitude (EVM) of 0.10% during transmission, the actual error vector amplitude (EVM) of the RF test signal received by the signal receiving device is 3%. This indicates that the transmission channels of the RF test signal (i.e., the first analog channel and the second analog channel) have experienced distortion (e.g., nonlinear changes) or noise that adversely affects the error vector amplitude (EVM), resulting in poor transmission quality of the RF test signal.

[0153] Therefore, the signal receiving device can generate a control command based on the transmission quality of the RF test signal evaluated by the error vector amplitude (EVM). This control command could be to reduce the transmit power by 10 dB. This command is then sent to the first digital channel via the second digital channel to instruct the signal transmitting device to reduce the transmit power by 10 dB. Specifically, the signal transmitting device can reduce the noise figure of the first analog channel by activating the first low-noise amplifier. Furthermore, the signal receiving device can also activate the second low-noise amplifier to reduce the noise figure of the second analog channel. After this processing, the error vector amplitude (EVM) can be improved to <0.2%, ensuring minimal degradation of signal quality.

[0154] For example, the control commands generated based on the actual transmission quality can also be used to increase the power of the RF test signal or adjust the modulation format of the RF test signal. The specific generation method is similar to that described above, which uses the Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) to evaluate the transmission quality of the RF test signal and then generates control commands, and will not be elaborated on here.

[0155] The signal transmitting device is also used to acquire the control instructions in the first digital channel and adjust the initial signal parameters of the radio frequency test signal according to the control instructions. In this embodiment, by injecting the radio frequency test signal, the transmission quality of the radio frequency test signal is evaluated based on its initial signal parameters and actual signal parameters, and the initial signal parameters are adjusted. In this way, the evaluation of the radio frequency test signal and the adjustment of the initial signal parameters of the radio frequency test signal can be completed using the analog and digital channels of the signal transmitting and receiving devices in the digital-analog hybrid optical fiber system. This not only solves the cost problem but also ensures more stable transmission of the subsequent radio frequency signal.

[0156] In one embodiment, the present invention also provides a binary protocol (SSTP) for transmitting radio frequency test electrical signals and the digital signals required by the control equipment. The SSTP uses a 30-byte fixed-length frame structure to support the transmission of various signal type parameters and device status control.

[0157] The protocol frame structure includes a 2-byte frame start identifier field, ranging from 0xAA55, which serves as a frame synchronization identifier; a 1-byte frame type field, ranging from 0x01 to 0x04, which indicates the frame type; a 1-byte sequence number field, ranging from 0x00 to 0xFF, which can be cyclically counted for acknowledgment matching; a 24-byte data / control payload, the range of which is variable, used to represent signal data or control commands; and a 2-byte CRC16 checksum field for verifying the protocol frame.

[0158] Specifically, the above frame types can be divided into data frames, control frames, status frames, and response frames. The data frame has a type value of 0x01 and is used to transmit the initial signal parameters of the radio frequency test signal; the control frame has a type value of 0x02 and is used to transmit control commands; the status frame has a type value of 0x03 and is used for device status query / reporting; the response frame has a frame type of 0x04 and is used for command execution confirmation.

[0159] The 24-byte payload format of the aforementioned data frame (0x01) includes a 4-byte signal type field. Specifically, 0001 indicates a single-tone signal, 0010 indicates a digitally modulated signal, 0011 indicates the type of the RF test signal is LTE, and 0100 indicates the type of the RF test signal is NR. It also includes an 8-byte frequency field, which is a 64-bit unsigned integer (Hz); a 1-byte signal strength field, which is a signed integer (dBm); a variable-size specific parameter field, which is determined according to the signal type; and a variable-size padding parameter field, which can be filled with all zeros up to 24 bytes. For example, single-tone signal: no other parameters; digitally modulated signal: symbol rate (4 bytes) + modulation method (2 bits); LTE test signal: test mode (1 byte) + bandwidth (3 bits); NR test signal: test mode (1 byte) + bandwidth (4 bits).

[0160] The 4-byte instruction header format of the aforementioned control frame (0x02) includes a 1-byte instruction type field, which represents the specific operation instruction; a 1-byte device address field, which indicates the target device address; a 1-byte parameter length field, which indicates the parameter data length; and a 1-byte reserved field for expansion. Control instructions can be transmitted through this control frame to enable the signal transmitting device to adjust its settings, thereby ensuring signal transmission quality. For example, a control parameter of 0x00 indicates that the low-noise amplifier is on, while 0x01 indicates that the low-noise amplifier is either on or off.

[0161] The 24-byte status report format of the aforementioned status frame (0x03) includes a 2-byte device temperature field, which is a signed integer (°C); a 2-byte power supply voltage field, which is an unsigned integer (mV); a 1-byte low-noise amplifier status field, where 0x00 indicates off; 0x01 indicates on; and 0x02 indicates a fault; a 1-byte signal status field, where 0x00 indicates off; 0x01 indicates on; and 0x02 indicates a fault; a 1-byte laser status field, where 0x00 indicates off; 0x01 indicates on; and 0x02 indicates a fault; a 2-byte current gain field, which is a signed integer (dB); a 4-byte filter status field, which indicates the current filter parameters; a 2-byte device error code field, which indicates the error status; and a 9-byte reserved field, which is used for future expansion.

[0162] The 24-byte response format of the aforementioned response frame includes a 1-byte original instruction type field, which represents the instruction type of the response; a 1-byte execution result field, where 0x00 indicates success; 0x01 indicates failure; and 0x02 indicates busy; a 2-byte error code field, which describes detailed error information; a 20-byte return data field, which is used for instruction execution return data; and a variable-size reserved field, which is filled with all zeros.

[0163] The above CRC checksum is the CRC-16-CCITT algorithm, whose polynomial can be expressed as: 0x1021(x 16 +x12+x 5 +1), where x is the polynomial coefficient. Its initial value can be 0xFFFF, its calculation range is the first 28 bytes (Header + payload), and its output method is direct output, without inversion or XOR.

[0164] The data frame header includes a 4-bit (1 byte = 8 bits) signal type field, located at positions 0-3, in unsigned format, used to identify the signal format; a 4-bit reserved field, located at positions 4-7, which must be 0; a 64-bit frequency field, located at positions 8-71, in unsigned integer format, used to represent the signal center frequency (Hz); and an 8-bit signal strength field, located at positions 72-79, in signed integer format, used to represent the signal power (dBm). For example: 0001: single-tone signal; 0010: digital modulation signal; 0011: LTE RF test signal; 0100: NR RF test signal.

[0165] The payload structure of the aforementioned single-tone signal includes a 4-bit signal type field, located at positions 0-3, with a format of 0001, which identifies the single-tone signal; a 4-bit reserved field, located at positions 4-7, with a format of 0000, which must be 0; a 64-bit frequency field, located at positions 8-71, with a format of unsigned integer, representing the frequency (Hz); an 8-bit signal strength field, located at positions 72-79, with a format of signed integer, representing the strength (dBm); and a 112-bit reserved field, located at positions 80-191, with a format of all zeros, used as padding bits.

The adjustment method can be encoded as follows: 00, BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying); 01, QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying); 10, 16QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation); 11, 64QAM.

[0187] By utilizing the protocol frame structure, a complete frame of an NR test signal can be obtained.

[0188] Assume the complete frame of the NR test signal starts with AA55, frame type: 01, sequence number: 01, payload: 4000000000D09F3000EC215000000000000000000000000000, CRC16: [Calculate the checksum of the first 28 bytes].

[0193] S1: Signal transmitting device 11 receives radio frequency test signals.

[0194] S2: The signal transmitting device 11 transmits the radio frequency test signal to the signal receiving device 12 through the first analog channel 51, and transmits the initial signal parameters of the radio frequency test signal to the signal receiving device 12 through the first digital channel 52.

[0195] The first optical signal processor 35 mixes the radio frequency test signal and the initial signal parameters and inputs them into the signal receiving device 12. The second optical signal processor 28 decomposes the mixed signal into the radio frequency test signal and the initial signal parameters, and inputs the radio frequency test signal into the second analog channel 53 and the initial signal parameters into the second digital channel 54.
