摘要： We demonstrate coherent optical frequency dissemination over a distance of 972 km by cascading two spans where the phase noise is passively compensated for. Instead of employing a phase discriminator and a phase locking loop in the conventional active phase control scheme, the passive phase noise cancellation is realized by feeding double-trip beat-note frequency to the driver of the acoustic optical modulator at the local site. This passive scheme exhibits fine robustness and reliability, making it suitable for long-distance and noisy fiber links. An optical regeneration station is used in the link for signal amplification and cascaded transmission. The phase noise cancellation and transfer instability of the 972-km link is investigated, and transfer instability of 1.1×10-19 at 104 s is achieved. This work provides a promising method for realizing optical frequency distribution over thousands of kilometers by using fiber links.
