Problems solved by technology

Both of the above two device structures are relatively complex and have no scalability. It is difficult to implement multiplexing and demultiplexing processing for OFDM signals containing a large number of subcarriers, and the cost is high.
In addition, the thermo-optic effect of the silicon-based waveguide is used in the coupler structure to introduce the phase shift of each branch, which is more complicated to realize; the structure of the waveguide grating routing device is fixed, there is no adjustable function, and the flexibility is poor

Embodiment Construction

[0032] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] figure 1It is a functional schematic diagram of the basic unit of the device of the present invention. The polarization beam splitter performs polarization splitting on the input signal, and after delay and phase shift processing, two beams of linearly polarized light with a phase difference are obtained. The polarization interference effect occurs between the two, and the output result after multi-level interference is equivalent to the OFFT operation function. When the device is used upside down, it is equivalent to the OIFFT operation function. The transfer function of the basic unit is:

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for multiplexing and demultiplexing an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal by using a polarization interference principle. A demultiplexing device consists of (N-1) basic structural units in a cascade mode, wherein N is the number of subcarriers of the OFDM signal, and an optical signal is subjected to polarization beam splitting, time delay and phase shift, and polarization interference in each basic structural unit; the demultiplexing device is inverted to serve as a multiplexing device; and the multiplexing device and the demultiplexing device realize operational function of inverse Fourier transform and Fourier transform on data sequence information carried in the optical signal. The device realizes the operational function of the inverse Fourier transform and the Fourier transform needed by OFDM signal multiplexing and demultiplexing in a full-light mode, and effectively eliminates the electronic processing speed limitation. Compared with devices in other full-light OFDM modes, the device has high expansibility, easily multiplexes and demultiplexes sub-channel signals with a large number of optical carriers, and has adjustable function and high flexibility.
