一种闭环控制的光纤光栅动态色散补偿仪

利用啁啾光纤光栅的应变调谐特性，将色散补偿的啁啾光纤光栅斜贴于悬臂梁的侧面，通过应力实现啁啾量调整而改变其色散补偿量的大小，同时利用固定在同一悬臂梁的均匀布拉格光栅传感器，实现了闭环自动控制色散补偿量，研制出了一种新型的光纤光栅动态色散补偿仪。该色散补偿仪工作在1550nm波段，典型性能数据为：色散动态补偿范围-1000-1680ps／nm，插入损耗小于1．5dB，动态调谐步进响应时间小于50ms，基本上能满足10Gb／s光纤通信系统中色散动态补偿的要求。

偏振模色散和时延抖动对啁啾光纤光栅色散补偿特性的影响

对存在偏振模色散(PMD)和群时延(GD)抖动的非理想线性啁啾光纤光栅的色散补偿特性进行了研究。实验测量了啁啾光纤光栅的群时延谱和偏振模色散光谱，理论分析和实验测量表明，啁啾光纤光栅差分群时延(DGD)抖动与其时延抖动密切相关。通过数值模拟方法，计算了线性啁啾光纤光栅偏振模色散眼图代价与入射到啁啾光纤光栅色散补偿器的光信号的偏振方向的关系，计算结果表明在使用啁啾光纤光栅色散补偿器时应对光信号的偏振方向进行调整，以获得最佳补偿效果。另外结合实验数据，模拟计算并讨论了非理想线性啁啾光纤光栅群时延抖动和偏振模色

Some engineering issues of an FBG sensor with the dual gratings parallel matched interrogation method

The key issues of engineering application of the dual gratings parallel matched interrogation method are expanding the measurable range, improving the usability, and lowering the cost by adopting a compact and simple setup based on existing conditions and improving the precision of the data-processing scheme. A credible and effective data-processing scheme based on a novel divisional look-up table is proposed based on the advantages of other schemes. Any undetermined data is belonged to a certain section, which can be confirmed at first, then it can be looked up in the table to correspond to microstrain by the scheme. It not only solves inherent problems of the traditional one (double value and small measurable range) but also enhances the precision, which improves the performance of the system. From the experimental results, the measurable range of the system is 525 mu epsilon, and the precision is +/- 1 mu epsilon based on normal matched gratings. The system works in real time, which is competent for most engineering measurement requirements. (C) 2007 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
