Abstract:
A method, device, and system for polarization division multiplexing (PDM) and polarization division demultiplexing are provided in the field of communication and transmission. The device for polarization division demultiplexing includes a polarization controller (PC), a polarization beam splitter (PBS), a detection control module, an optoelectronic receiver 1, and an optoelectronic receiver 2. The PC is adapted to receive a PDM optical signal carrying an identification signal and perform polarization control on the PDM optical signal. The PBS is adapted to perform polarization division on the PDM optical signal carrying the identification signal after the polarization control. The detection control module is adapted to perform identification signal detection on the optical signal after the polarization division to obtain a power of the identification signal, and output a polarization control signal to control the PC according to a power change of the identification signal. The optoelectronic receiver 1 and the optoelectronic receiver 2 are adapted to perform demodulation reception on an X-polarization branch optical signal and a Y-polarization branch optical signal respectively to obtain a first original signal and a second original signal. Thereby, during polarization division demultiplexing, reversal of two demultiplexed polarization branches is effectively avoided.
