摘要:
Because the phase comparison of the light signal data row and the light clock signal, and the coding of the light signal by the light signal, are simultaneously conducted, the influence of the phase variation in the signal path is not affected in principle, and the optimum phase condition is automatically established/maintained, and thereby, the present invention operates as an all-light type light receiver by which the light data and light clock are reproduced. Further, because the electric signal used herein exists in the range from the DC to the frequency of the difference between the light signal data row and the light clock signal, problems peculiar to the high speed electric signal can be avoided.
摘要:
In the multi-value modulation apparatus, one optical intensity detecting unit (13) detects optical intensity of a modulation optical signal generated by one optical modulation signal generating unit (10) and output from the variable optical attenuator (12). The detected optical intensity is provided to the comparator (16). Another optical intensity detecting unit (14) detects optical intensity of a modulation optical signal output from another optical modulation signal generating unit (11). The attenuator (15) attenuates the optical intensity detected by the another optical intensity detecting unit (14), and provides it to the comparator (16). The output of the comparator is provided to the optical variable attenuator as a control signal. The variable optical attenuator (12) controls optical intensity of the modulation optical signal based on the control signal.
摘要:
The optical transmission apparatus has a Mach-Zehnder optical modulator (3), a light source (1) for applying an optical signal of a continuous light to the optical modulator (3), a driving circuit (24) for inputting a driving signal into the optical modulator (3), a branching filter (4) for taking out a part of an output optical signal, a photodiode (5) for converting the taken-out output optical signal into an electric signal, a band pass filter (16) for extracting a frequency component of a driving signal included in this electric signal, an error signal generator circuit (7) for generating an error signal of a bias voltage that minimizes a value of the extracted frequency component, and a bias voltage control circuit (10) for applying a bias voltage added with this error signal to the optical modulator (3).
摘要:
The optical transmitter comprises a light source (2) which inputs continuous optical signal and a driving circuit (4) which inputs driving signal to an optical modulator (3) of Mach-Zehnder type. A photo coupler separates (5) a part of the output of the optical modulator (3). A photo diode (6) converts this part into electric signal. A band-pass filter (7) and a pre-amplifier (8) extract a frequency component of the driving signal contained in the electric signal. A mixer (9) conducts synchronous detection between the driving signal and the extracted frequency component. Finally, a bias voltage control circuit (12) controls a bias voltage based on a result of the phase comparison.
