Specific embodiment
Following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention carries out clear, complete Site preparation description, it is clear that described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, instead of all the embodiments.It is based on Embodiment in the present invention, it is obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts every other Embodiment shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 2 a, a kind of fibre optic compression sensor provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including:Pressure on optical fiber Transducing part 201, and the reflector 202 in optical fiber one end, wherein:
Pressure sensing portion 201, for fiber optic conduction pressure, which to damage light in optical fiber transmission process Consumption;
Reflector 202 is used for reflected measurement signal.
The fibre optic compression sensor does not include active device, can mismatch with independent utility in hazardous environment using anti- Quick-fried device, applied widely, use cost is low.
Micro-bend type pressure sensor can be used in pressure sensing portion 201 in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 2 b, micro- Kinking structure includes the castellated plates that a pair of of Machine cycle is A, and optical fiber is passed through among castellated plates, produced under the directed force F of castellated plates Raw periodically bending.When castellated plates are by external disturbance, the micro-bend degree of optical fiber changes, so as to cause the function of output light Rate changes.Measure the size of external pressure indirectly by optical power change that photodetector detects.By being carried to light The detection of intensity of wave just can determine that the displacement of anamorphoser proportional thereto, and determine pressure size.
By the pressure sensor, as soon as sending a test pulse in optical fiber one end, a reflection peak can be received, is surveyed in advance Reflection peak when trying a reflection peak when no pressure, then monitoring pressure, by the difference (after taking log) of reflection peak, just Actual pressure value can be calculated.If there is connector, connector is also possible to that a reflection peak can be generated, this reflection peak is not anticipated Justice can be ignored.Such device is as a survey pressure pressure sensor node.A large amount of pressure sensor nodes can pass through light Distribution network (Optical Distribution Network, ODN) is attached, with optical measuring device (such as optical time domain reflection Instrument OTDR) all reflection signals in measuring signal, then receiving light path are sent, and carry out identification and data processing, it is to be understood that it is each The pressure value of sensor.Wherein, measuring signal can be test pulse or cycle tests, and cycle tests can be further specific For pseudo noise code or mutual-complementing code.
Wherein, reflector can be specially:
Plate the reflector of film type;Or
The reflector of fiber grating type;Or
Reflecting mirror.
Embodiment one
As shown in Figure 2 a, which does not have the relevant control circuit of any electricity and electrical interface, without light yet Source and photodiode are passive sensors.In optical path, test light pulse is incident in optical fiber from the end c, and the end c can be reserved Connector is also possible to a bit of naked fibre, and for welding, the end emergent light b connects reflector, and reflection implement body can be plated film class The reflector of type is also possible to the reflector of fiber grating type.
As shown in figure 3, testing out reflective light intensity (taking log, similarly hereinafter) is p in no pressureA, there is pressure condition Under, testing out reflective light intensity is pB, light intensity difference Δ p=pA-pB, can be obtained by pressure f in Fig. 4 and the relationship of light intensity difference Δ p Pressure value out.Under actual conditions, the relationship of pressure and light intensity difference can be tested by pressure sensing manufacturer to be provided.
The fibre optic compression sensor of embodiment one is relatively specific for the scene not high to pressure test required precision, such as light Network is more stable, i.e., optical measuring device is opposite with the optical path loss between sensor node stable.However, due to practical application When, the intensity for reflecting signal is influenced by factors such as fiber lengths, connector, light stability degree, and reflected intensity is also impacted therewith. To solve this problem, measuring accuracy is improved, the embodiment of the present invention provides following preferred scheme.
Embodiment two
Measuring accuracy is improved, reflected light can be referred to by increasing by one, light intensity also dynamically becomes with above-mentioned factor together Change, i.e., if the ratio between reflective light intensity with reference to light intensity and after pressure sensing portion (takes when the pressure applied is constant It is exactly difference after log) not with above-mentioned factor dynamic change, that is, be exactly the ratio size of this reflective light intensity only becomes with pressure Change.It realizing two independent reflection peaks, then can be divided by 1 × 2 optical splitter, branch directly adds reflector all the way, Reflected light, which is used as, refers to light intensity, and another way branch is used for the reflection of sensor.In optical path, the reflector of Liang Ge branch Range difference to 1 × 2 optical splitter wants sufficiently large, is at least greater than the length of test pulsewidth in a fiber, avoids reflection overlap of peaks, Hardly possible is differentiated.
As shown in figure 5, the fibre optic compression sensor further includes:Optical splitter 203, the first output end connect pressure sensing portion 201, second output terminal connects the second reflection unit 202 as referring to optical path by optical fiber;
Wherein, the difference of the length of two optical paths is greater than the signal width of measuring signal.
When measuring signal is pulse, signal width can be specially the pulsewidth of pulse signal, when measuring signal is to survey When measuring sequence, signal width can be specially the symbol width for measuring sequence.
In Fig. 5, c point is fiber connector, and a point is to increase reflector with reference to reflection position point, and b point is sensor reflection Location point increases reflector.It tests light pulse to enter from c point, passes through optical splitter (such as 20%:80%) a point and b point, reflection are arrived After return c point, raw 2 reflection peaks of common property.Reference axis in Fig. 6 indicates the relationship of distance and light intensity, it is assumed that c point to a point Distance is L, and c point to b point distance is M, in order to make two reflection peaks not generate overlapping, | M-L | it is greater than the distance of test pulsewidth. Because c point is connector, that just again can be more a reflection peak may when reflection peak heights and neighboring reflection peak are not much different Measurement accuracy is influenced, at this moment the value of L is also greater than the distance of test pulsewidth, avoids reflection overlap of peaks.C point can be fusion point, It does not reflect thus, L is not also just required.
Ordinate p in Fig. 6 indicates light intensity (power, the value after taking log), the light of two reflection peaks when p0 indicates no pressure Strong difference, (p0+ Δ p) is light intensity difference when having pressure, and Δ p is the difference of light intensity when having pressure and no pressure, passes through Δ p and pressure The relationship of power can obtain pressure value.
When practical application, p0 can be positive and (be higher than sensor reflection peak when no pressure with reference to reflection peak), and can be negative (reference Reflection peak is lower than sensory reflex peak when no pressure), the position of a point and b point also can be interchanged (i.e. can with reference to reflection branch length Than sensing branch head).Optical splitter used may be either equal part optical splitter, can also be non-equal part optical splitter.
Pressure sensor in embodiment two is just to calculate pressure value by Δ p, and from reflectivity curve, can only be read P0+ Δ p out, such p0 value must be known in advance.When its tangible sensor production is completed, the value of p0 is it has been determined that sensor goes out When factory, p0 value should be provided.Because in sensor processing and fabricating, inevitably will appear technologic error, each sensor p0 value may Can be different, when multisensor monitoring nodes calculate, it just must be known by the p0 of each sensor node, be unfavorable for answering on a large scale With.
Embodiment three,
In order to solve the problems, such as that each sensor p0 value may be inconsistent, increase by one on the light reflection branch road for reference A variable optical attenuation device is gone here and there between optical splitter and reflector, and effect is two reflections when p0 is adjusted to 0dB, i.e. no pressure Peak heights are the same.At this moment two reflection peak to peak values are exactly Δ p, do not need the value that p0 is known in advance.
In the application, variable optical attenuation device can go here and there any branch after optical splitter, as long as in no pressure, two A reflection peak, that high branch add light attenuation device.Even can two branches can respectively go here and there variable optical attenuation dress It sets.In addition, it is 0dB that the p0 value of each sensor node is adjustable, also adjustable is a fixed value.
As shown in fig. 7, the fibre optic compression sensor further includes:
At least one variable optical attenuation device 204 is arranged on reference light road, and/or, it is arranged in pressure sensing portion institute Optical path on.
As shown in figure 8, same, ordinate p indicates light intensity (power, the value after taking log), and two when p0 indicates no pressure are anti- The light intensity difference at peak is penetrated, (p0+ Δ p) is light intensity difference when having pressure, and Δ p is the difference of light intensity when having pressure and no pressure, is led to The relationship of Δ p and pressure is crossed, can obtain pressure value.Since p0 value is fixed, it is possible to directly be obtained by two reflection peak to peak values Δp。
