Definitions
- the invention relates to a data transmission system for the optical transmission of data by means of optical fibers, the transmitter and / or receiver having to be moved along an optical fiber or to be positioned differently.
- data transmission systems are used, for example, in a linear version in crane systems or other conveyor systems for data transmission between the mobile crane and a stationary control unit.
- Another application of these data transmission systems in a circular design is the transmission between mutually rotatable parts such as, for example, in a computer tomograph between the rotor, which carries the X-ray tube and the detector, and a stationary evaluation unit, which processes and displays the image data.
- the light-guiding fiber is doped with a fluorescent dye.
- Light incident from the outside is absorbed by the fluorescent dye molecules, which are then excited to emit light.
- the light is emitted in all directions, similar to a spherical emitter.
- the advantage of this method lies in the implementation of the wavelength by the fluorescent dye molecules.
- the light emitted by the fluorescent dye molecules is generally lower in energy than the light they absorb. The emitted light therefore has a longer wavelength.
- the energy of the light emitted by a fluorescent dye molecule is not sufficient to be absorbed in other fluorescent dye molecules of the same type and in turn to cause a fluorescence emission.
- the light-guiding fiber doped with the fluorescent dye molecules has a low attenuation for the light generated by the fluorescent effect.
- transmission systems of great length or large diameter can also be implemented efficiently.
- This system now has the major disadvantage that the fluorescence effect does not end spontaneously when the energy supply is cut off by the exciting light, but decays exponentially. This results in a speed or bandwidth limitation of the transmitted signals.
- the best fibers with fluorescent dyes currently tested in laboratory tests have time constants in the order of magnitude of a few nanoseconds and can therefore only be used up to a few 100 Mbaud, but in no case for the Gbaud range.
- Another method is based on light coupling via a grating which is applied to a glass fiber, for example, by means of photo-refractive materials in the interior of a glass fiber (published in US Pat. No. 4,749,248) or as a jacket (published in PCT publication WO 99/04309 ) are.
- optical waveguide This term refers to the preferred embodiment since light can only be guided with an optical fiber damping arm over long distances.
- the object of the invention is equally applicable to all other types of light guides.
- the invention has for its object to provide an optical data transmission system that no longer has the disadvantages mentioned above and is particularly suitable for contactless transmission of high data rates along a larger path length with comparatively low manufacturing costs.
- the device according to the invention consists of an optical waveguide, preferably an optical fiber, which contains scattering centers in its interior close to the positions at which light is to be coupled in or out.
- the purpose of these scattering centers is to deflect light in different directions.
- light is at least partially deflected by the scattering centers into a solid angle at which the light can be guided into the optical waveguide.
- the light guided in the optical waveguide is at least partially deflected by the scattering centers in directions outside the optical waveguide.
- the term "scattering centers" is used in the majority in this document, since this corresponds to the preferred area of use.
- the invention can be designed to have the same effect with even a single scattering center. Since the scattering centers Centers are usually very small, but usually a variety of such scattering centers are usually used close to each other.
- the effect of the scattering centers - the scattering - is an optical effect in which a large number of mostly not specifically oriented, preferably microscopic particles are involved. It is based on different optical properties of these particles compared to the medium surrounding them. For example, the refractive index or transmission of the scattering particles can have different values. In contrast to this, for example, the reflection is preferably a macroscopic effect, which mostly causes light to be deflected in a preferred direction.
- scattering centers are permanently present in the optical waveguide.
- Such an embodiment of the invention is particularly advantageous when light is to be coupled in or out at certain predetermined positions. This is the case, for example, with bus systems.
- the nature of the optical waveguide is designed such that the location or the type of scattering centers can be controlled by an external stimulus.
- Scattering centers can thus be generated at specific, changing positions.
- the location of a scattering center can be changed dynamically with a movement of an element for coupling in and out light.
- the scattering center can follow the rotation and enable continuous coupling or uncoupling of light during the rotation.
- the type of scattering center can also be influenced.
- the type of scattering center has a significant influence on the amount of scattering. Basically parameters can be influenced, such as the size or the density of the scattering centers.
- the scattering center can be set to low scatter, since the path attenuation is low here and therefore only a small signal component has to be coupled in or out. With longer distances, on the other hand, it makes sense to set a higher spread in order to achieve a higher coupling or decoupling.
- the type of scattering centers for example, distance-dependent attenuation of the transmission path can be compensated for, so that receivers with low dynamics can be used. It is also possible to compensate for other effects, such as different transmission powers, receiver sensitivities or even imperfections in the transmission path, by adapting the scattering centers.
- the control of the type of Scatter centers also a simple creation or removal of the scatter centers.
- the optical waveguide contains material whose scattering can preferably be influenced by electromagnetic fields or waves or else by particles. In order to influence the transmission of light as little as possible, this material preferably has a low attenuation in the non-scattering state. Because it can be influenced by electromagnetic fields or waves. a particularly simple controllability of the scatter is possible from the outside. In this case, in particular, contactless control is possible without any problems.
- a special case of electromagnetic waves is light. Scattering centers can arise with certain materials, especially with light of higher power density.
- the optical waveguide is to be irradiated with a light source of high power density in order to generate scattering centers. The scattering of the scattering centers can then be influenced by varying the power density.
- the optical waveguide contains material in which the scattering centers act due to certain physical properties. These are in particular changes in volume, structure, effects of inter- or intramolecular forces or changes in at least one state of matter. Just by changing these parameters in small, included in the optical fiber Particles can have their refractive index or attenuation varied, which can lead to scattering.
- the optical waveguide contains material with special properties, so that the scattering of this material can preferably be influenced by at least one of the following effects:
- the optical waveguide is made of a material suitable for the optical waveguides, such as glass or plastic, and is designed in the form of a fiber or a planar waveguide element.
- the dispersion of the signal can be kept small. This means that a broadband signal Transfer possible.
- the attenuation can be kept low by the proposed design of the optical waveguide, so that even with long transmission paths, only a low receiver dynamic range is necessary.
- the optical waveguide is designed as a hollow body which is optionally filled with solids, liquids or gases.
- a particularly simple manufacture of the device according to the invention is thus possible.
- a simple flexible plastic tube can be pulled as a sheath, which is then filled with a corresponding liquid that has the desired properties.
- separate signal or energy sources are used to control the scattering or for signal transmission.
- a first energy source which, by supplying energy, excites the scattering centers at the location of the desired coupling in such a way that they have the desired scatter.
- a second energy source for example a modulated laser, is used to transmit information by coupling its light into the optical waveguide using the scattering centers.
- Another embodiment of the invention is that a single energy source for controlling the scattering centers at a location of the signal coupling or decoupling and is available for information transfer.
- So z. B. a particularly powerful laser can be used for energy coupling, which simultaneously couples the energy required to control the scatter into the optical waveguide and transmits the information.
- FIG. 1 General embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 2 Configuration of data transmission systems.
- Fig. 3 Configuration in which scattering centers are present without excitation
- FIG. 1 An arrangement according to the invention is shown in general form in FIG. 1
- An optical waveguide (3) guides light (6), which can propagate in it with only slight attenuation.
- This optical waveguide contains scattering centers (7) in a locally limited area (5).
- the light (6) propagating in the optical waveguide is scattered, so that the scattered light propagates in all directions. This means that part of the scattered light also emerges from the optical waveguide out.
- Light (8) can also radiate from an external light source onto the optical waveguide. If this light hits the scattering centers, it is also scattered in all directions. Part of the light (4) is scattered in the longitudinal direction of the optical waveguide and can thus be guided in it.
- additional energy (1) is supplied via an optional cover (2) to control the scattering centers.
- the task of the diaphragm here is to define the radiation of the optical waveguide in a precisely defined manner, so that the scattering centers only arise in a precisely defined area.
- FIG. 2 shows the typical configuration of a data transmission system.
- the upper part of the figure shows the coupling of light into the optical waveguide at any position of the optical waveguide and the coupling out at one end of the optical waveguide.
- a transmitter (12) emits light (8) in the direction of the optical waveguide. Scattering centers are activated at this point by additional energy (1). Part of the light from the transmitter is now scattered thereon in such a way that it can be guided in the optical waveguide (3) to the receiver (13) at one end of the optical waveguide.
- a transmitter (10) feeds light (9) at one end of the optical waveguide (3) a.
- This light is coupled out at scattering centers which are excited by additional energy (1) and evaluated by the receiver (11).
- Fig. 3 shows an alternative configuration for the case that scattering centers are present without excitation with additional energy.
- FIG 4 illustrates different types of energy or signal coupling, for example in the case of signal feeding at any point on the optical waveguide.
- the mechanisms can be applied analogously to signal decoupling at any point on the optical waveguide.
- the high power signal (41) is coupled into the optical fiber (3).
- the power of the signal is chosen so high that scattering centers arise at the point of irradiation into the optical waveguide, which in turn couple part of the signal in the direction of propagation of the optical waveguide.
- the middle illustration shows the preferred application in which the data signal (1) and the exciting or controlling energy (8) of the scattering centers are coupled into the optical waveguide (3) from separate sources.
- the bottom illustration shows the case in which a form of energy other than light, for example ionizing radiation (42), is coupled into the optical waveguide to generate scattering centers.
- modulated light (8) is coupled in again in the region of the scattering centers.
