DESIGN AND MODELING OF PASSIVE COMPONENTS OF LINEAR PATH OF OPTICAL COMMUNICATION

It was conducted the analysis of structural construction of the organization schemes of the optical communicati on with passive components, i.e, optoelectronic switch and the device of precision positioning of the radiation direction. Based on the analysis it was concluded that the existing components did not provide high accuracy of switching and positioning the di rection of the optical radiation, which leads to loss of energy when entering the optical radiation into the optical fiber at the points of mechanical connection. For this purpose, it was developed the organization scheme of the optical communication with passive components, design scheme, the control scheme and mathematical model of functioning of the optoelectronic switch and the device of precision positioning of the direction of optical radiation. It was shown that the developed optoelectronic switch an d the devices of precision positioning of the direction of radiation could reduce the time and improve the accuracy of the switching and positioning of the optical radiation direction, to compensate the loss at the mechanical connection places and commissi oning of the radiation into the fiber optic cable within 3...5 dB, which is 50...55 % less than in the known devices. These devices offer significant advantages over the electro and magneto - electric deflection systems, which include low power consumption, high accuracy, reliability and manufacturability. This suggests that the proposed construction can find its use in modern optical communication systems.
