The core function of passive WDM mux demux is to multiplex optical signals of multiple wavelengths into one optical fiber for transmission, and then separate these signals at the receiving end. Its main working principles include the following aspects:<\/p>\n

Wavelength Division Multiplexing<\/h3>\n

Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology realizes the parallel transmission of multiple signals by transmitting optical signals of different wavelengths in the same optical fiber. The passive WDM multiplexer processes the optical signals from multiple light sources through filters or gratings respectively, so that they are transmitted at different wavelengths, thereby realizing signal multiplexing. Each wavelength represents an independent channel and can transmit different information at the same time, greatly improving the transmission capacity of the optical fiber.<\/p>\n

Wavelength division multiplexing devices usually include fiber Bragg gratings, arrayed waveguide gratings, and thin film filters. These devices can accurately separate and synthesize optical signals of different wavelengths, thereby realizing efficient wavelength division multiplexing functions. Fiber Bragg gratings use gratings to reflect light of specific wavelengths to achieve separation and synthesis of optical signals of different wavelengths; arrayed waveguide gratings achieve separation of different wavelengths through different lengths of optical waveguide paths; thin film filters selectively reflect or transmit optical signals of specific wavelengths through multi-layer thin film structures.<\/p>\n

Wavelength Demultiplexing<\/h3>\n

At the receiving end, the passive WDM demultiplexer separates multiple wavelength signals multiplexed on the same optical fiber through similar filters or gratings. Each separated wavelength signal is then processed by the corresponding receiving device to restore the original multi-channel signal. In this way, the passive WDM demultiplexer realizes signal demultiplexing and ensures the integrity and accuracy of the data.<\/p>\n

Passive WDM demultiplexers also use technologies such as fiber Bragg gratings, arrayed waveguide gratings and thin film filters to ensure that each wavelength signal can be separated efficiently and accurately. During the demultiplexing process, the optical signal is processed by the filter or grating to direct the optical signals of each wavelength to different output ports, thereby achieving separation of multiple signals.<\/p>\n

Application of Passive Components<\/h3>\n

The most significant feature of passive WDM mux demux is its passivity, that is, it does not require external power or active control devices for signal processing. Passive components mainly include filters, gratings, and fiber couplers. Through the ingenious design and precise manufacturing of these passive components, efficient wavelength multiplexing and demultiplexing can be achieved, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system. The passive components used in passive WDM mux demux usually have the advantages of high stability, high reliability, and long life. The application of these passive components not only reduces the energy consumption and maintenance costs of the system, but also improves the stability and reliability of the system, ensuring that the optical fiber communication network can operate stably for a long time.<\/p>\n
