Research on Modulation Multiplexing System and Technique Employing Tilted Grating

Abstract:

A dual demodulation technique based on tilted grating and InGaAs photodiode array is proposed; using the coupling modes of the cladding, a wavelength demodulation method with the tilted grating as the spectroscopic device is realized. This method can achieve that the demodulation of the channel in which the sensing information changed and the optimization of collection rules of the system. Two tunable F-P filters scan and demodulate the sensing path simultaneously to further improve the system response speed. Simulation analysis and experiments results indicate that the average demodulation time is 40ms and the average signal frequency can reach 15Hz. In addition, the demodulation bandwidth is 40nm, and its wavelength demodulation precision can reach 20pm. The system has advantages of the shorter delay time, and the demodulation time is immune to the number of channels, etc.. Therefore, this system is able to meet the smart requirement of some complex systems and large scale distributed intelligent system.
