【Abstract】 In this paper, the noise equivalant power (NEP) of optical heterodyne system has been measured with a method based on acousto-optici germanium’ crystal modulator working at Bragg diffraction mode as a frequency shifting device in heterodyne system. This method has the advantages of simple structure, easy change of signal power and shifted frequency. The experimental results are found in argreement with the theoretical analysis.更多还原
